Patent number: 12119028Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for identifying candidate boundaries for video segments, video segment selection using those boundaries, and text-based video editing of video segments selected via transcript interactions. In an example implementation, boundaries of detected sentences and words are extracted from a transcript, the boundaries are retimed into an adjacent speech gap to a location where voice or audio activity is a minimum, and the resulting boundaries are stored as candidate boundaries for video segments. As such, a transcript interface presents the transcript, interprets input selecting transcript text as an instruction to select a video segment with corresponding boundaries selected from the candidate boundaries, and interprets commands that are traditionally thought of as text-based operations (e.g., cut, copy, paste) as an instruction to perform a corresponding video editing operation using the selected video segment.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2022Date of Patent: October 15, 2024Assignee: ADOBE INC.Inventors: Xue Bai, Justin Jonathan Salamon, Aseem Omprakash Agarwala, Hijung Shin, Haoran Cai, Joel Richard Brandt, Lubomira Assenova Dontcheva, Cristin Ailidh Fraser

Publication number: 20240037398Abstract: Some embodiments involve a reinforcement learning based framework for training a natural media agent to learn a rendering policy without human supervision or labeled datasets. The reinforcement learning based framework feeds the natural media agent a training dataset to implicitly learn the rendering policy by exploring a canvas and minimizing a loss function. Once trained, the natural media agent can be applied to any reference image to generate a series (or sequence) of continuous-valued primitive graphic actions, e.g., sequence of painting strokes, that when rendered by a synthetic rendering environment on a canvas, reproduce an identical or transformed version of the reference image subject to limitations of an action space and the learned rendering policy.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2023Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Jonathan BRANDT, Chen FANG, Byungmoon KIM, Biao JIA

Patent number: 11816888Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an automated image tagging system that can predict a set of tags, along with relevance scores, that can be used for keyword-based image retrieval, image tag proposal, and image tag auto-completion based on user input. Initially, during training, a clustering technique is utilized to reduce cluster imbalance in the data that is input into a convolutional neural network (CNN) for training feature data. In embodiments, the clustering technique can also be utilized to compute data point similarity that can be utilized for tag propagation (to tag untagged images). During testing, a diversity based voting framework is utilized to overcome user tagging biases. In some embodiments, bigram re-weighting can down-weight a keyword that is likely to be part of a bigram based on a predicted tag set.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2020Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Zhe Lin, Xiaohui Shen, Jonathan Brandt, Jianming Zhang, Chen Fang
