Abstract: Methods and systems for determining projected amounts of viewing time of a TV program by end-users are disclosed. Data including end-user type, a TV program descriptor, TV network, and start time of transmission may be received. End-users may be identified by end-user type. A machine-learning model applied to the data and viewing history data may generate parameters for determining how much of the TV program they are each expected to view during a sequence of time intervals. For each end-user, the parameters may be applied to make a determination of temporal-fraction values of the TV program the end-user is expected to view during the time interval, and for each time interval, conditioning values used to condition the determination for the next time interval. Projected subtotals of viewing time may be determined, based on the temporal-fraction values. A projected total amount viewing time of the TV program may then be determined.

Abstract: Using a pre-trained and fixed Vision Transformer (ViT) model as an external semantic prior, a generator is trained given only a single structure/appearance image pair as input. Given two input images, a source structure image and a target appearance image, a new image is generated by the generator in which the structure of the source image is preserved, while the visual appearance of the target image is transferred in a semantically aware manner, so that objects in the structure image are “painted” with the visual appearance of semantically related objects in the appearance image. A self-supervised, pre-trained ViT model, such as a DINO-VIT model, is leveraged as an external semantic prior, allowing for training of the generator only on a single input image pair, without any additional information (e.g., segmentation/correspondences), and without adversarial training. The method may generate high quality results in high resolution (e.g., HD).
