Abstract: System and method for image processing are provided. A stream of images may be obtained, for example by capturing images using an image sensor. Points in time associated with an activity may be obtained. For each point in time, the stream of images may be analyzed to identify events related to the activity and preceding the point in time. Based on the identified events, an event detection rule configured to analyze images to detect at least one event may be obtained. Image data may be obtained, and the image data may be analyzed using the event detection rule to detect events matching selected criteria in the image data.

Abstract: System and method for image processing are provided. Image based information may be obtained. The image based information may be analyzed to identify instances of a repeated activity of a selected person. Properties of the repeated activity of the selected person may be determined based on the identified instances of the repeated activity.

Abstract: Techniques for providing interactive visualizations for an entity or group of entities based on search interest data are provided. The search interest data may be derived from Internet or online search data related to the entities and relevant attributes of the entities. Each of the entities and attributes may be represented in a structured search market using a predefined list of relevant search terms or keywords. The search interest of each entity and attribute may be determined based on probabilities representing a likelihood of a search for an entity co-occurring with a search for a relevant attribute within a predetermined time proximity.

Abstract: An ambiguity resolver having an input for receiving a data string entered using an ambiguous keyboard, a comparator for comparing the data string to be searched against a plurality of prestored words to find at least one closest match to the data string, and an output for outputting a comparison result. An ambiguous keyboard is one in which more than one character is mapped to a single key, a particular example being a telephone keypad used for entering all the alphanumeric characters.
