Publication number: 20250139161Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for cutting down a user's larger input video into an edited video comprising the most important video segments and applying corresponding video effects. Some embodiments of the present invention are directed to adding captioning video effects to the trimmed video (e.g., applying face-aware and non-face-aware captioning to emphasize extracted video segment headings, important sentences, quotes, words of interest, extracted lists, etc.). For example, a prompt is provided to a generative language model to identify portions of a transcript (e.g., extracted scene summaries, important sentences, lists of items discussed in the video, etc.) to apply to corresponding video segments as captions depending on the type of caption (e.g., an extracted heading may be captioned at the start of a corresponding video segment, important sentences and/or extracted list items may be captioned when they are spoken).Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2024Publication date: May 1, 2025Inventors: Deepali ANEJA, Zeyu JIN, Hijung SHIN, Anh Lan TRUONG, Dingzeyu LI, Hanieh DEILAMSALEHY, Rubaiat HABIB, Matthew David FISHER, Kim Pascal PIMMEL, Wilmot LI, Lubomira Assenova DONTCHEVA

Publication number: 20250140291Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for identifying the relevant segments that effectively summarize the larger input video and/or form a rough cut, and assembling them into one or more smaller trimmed videos. For example, visual scenes and corresponding scene captions are extracted from the input video and associated with an extracted diarized and timestamped transcript to generate an augmented transcript. The augmented transcript is applied to a large language model to extract sentences that characterize a trimmed version of the input video (e.g., a natural language summary, a representation of identified sentences from the transcript). As such, corresponding video segments are identified (e.g., using similarity to match each sentence in a generated summary with a corresponding transcript sentence) and assembled into one or more trimmed videos. In some embodiments, the trimmed video is generated based on a user's query and/or desired length.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2024Publication date: May 1, 2025Inventors: Hanieh DEILAMSALEHY, Jui-Hsien WANG, Zhengyang MA, Dingzeyu LI, Hijung SHIN, Aseem Omprakash AGARWALA, Kim Pascal PIMMEL, Lubomira Assenova DONTCHEVA

Publication number: 20250140292Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for cutting down a user's larger input video into an edited video comprising the most important video segments and applying corresponding video effects. Some embodiments of the present invention are directed to adding face-aware scale magnification to the trimmed video (e.g., applying scale magnification to simulate a camera zoom effect that hides shot cuts with respect to the subject's face). For example, as the trimmed video transitions from one video segment to the next video segment, a scale magnification may be applied that zooms in on a detected face at a boundary between the video segments to smooth the transition between video segments.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2024Publication date: May 1, 2025Inventors: Anh Lan TRUONG, Deepali ANEJA, Hijung SHIN, Rubaiat HABIB, Jakub FISER, Kishore RADHAKRISHNA, Joel Richard BRANDT, Matthew David FISHER, Zeyu JIN, Kim Pascal PIMMEL, Wilmot LI, Lubomira Assenova DONTCHEVA

Publication number: 20240233769Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, methods, and computer storage media providing visualizations and mechanisms utilized when performing video edits using wrapped timelines (e.g., effect bars/effect tracks) interspersed between text lines representing video effects being applied to text segments in a transcript. An example embodiment provides a transcript using an audio track from a transcribed video. A transcript interface presents the transcript and accepts an input selecting sentences or words from the transcript. The identified boundaries corresponding to the selected text segment are used as boundaries for a selected video segment. Using the selected text segment, a user selects a video effect in which to apply to the corresponding video segment and within the transcript interface, a wrapped timeline is placed in the transcript along the selected text segment to indicate that the video effect is applied to the corresponding video segment.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 10, 2023Publication date: July 11, 2024Inventors: David Tamas Kutas, Lubomira Assenova Dontcheva, Kim Pascal Pimmel, Hijung Shin

Publication number: 20240134597Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for a question search for meaningful questions that appear in a video. In an example embodiment, an audio track from a video is transcribed, and the transcript is parsed to identify sentences that end with a question mark. Depending on the embodiment, one or more types of questions are filtered out, such as short questions less than a designated length or duration, logistical questions, and/or rhetorical questions. As such, in response to a command to perform a question search, the questions are identified, and search result tiles representing video segments of the questions are presented. Selecting (e.g., clicking or tapping on) a search result tile navigates a transcript interface to a corresponding portion of the transcript.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2022Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Lubomira Assenova DONTCHEVA, Anh Lan TRUONG, Hanieh DEILAMSALEHY, Kim Pascal PIMMEL, Aseem Omprakash AGARWALA, Dingzeyu Li, Joel Richard BRANDT, Joy Oakyung KIM

Publication number: 20240134909Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for a visual and text search interface used to navigate a video transcript. In an example embodiment, a freeform text query triggers a visual search for frames of a loaded video that match the freeform text query (e.g., frame embeddings that match a corresponding embedding of the freeform query), and triggers a text search for matching words from a corresponding transcript or from tags of detected features from the loaded video. Visual search results are displayed (e.g., in a row of tiles that can be scrolled to the left and right), and textual search results are displayed (e.g., in a row of tiles that can be scrolled up and down). Selecting (e.g., clicking or tapping on) a search result tile navigates a transcript interface to a corresponding portion of the transcript.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2022Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Lubomira Assenova DONTCHEVA, Dingzeyu LI, Kim Pascal PIMMEL, Hijung SHIN, Hanieh DEILAMSALEHY, Aseem Omprakash AGARWALA, Joy Oakyung KIM, Joel Richard BRANDT, Cristin Ailidh Fraser
