  • Ranking content for display
    Patent number: 12155615
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for ranking content. In one aspect, a method of ranking content for display includes identifying, via hardware processing circuitry, interactions by a single account with content pairs, each of the content in the content pairs included in a plurality of content, aggregating, via the hardware processing circuitry, the identified interactions across a plurality of accounts, associating, via the hardware processing circuitry, probabilities with each content in the plurality of content based on the aggregated interactions, ranking, via the hardware processing circuitry, the plurality of content based on the associated probabilities; and selecting, via the hardware processing circuitry, content ranked above a threshold for display.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 25, 2023
    Date of Patent: November 26, 2024
    Assignee: Snap Inc.
    Inventors: Theresa Barton, Yanping Chen, Lucas Ou-Yang, Emre Yamangil, Keyang Zhang, Jiwoon Jeon, Jaewook Chung, Wisam Dakka, Xin Chen
  • DEVICE-BASED IMAGE MODIFICATION OF DEPICTED OBJECTS
    Publication number: 20230384918
    Abstract: A system of machine learning schemes can be configured to efficiently perform image processing tasks on a user device, such as a mobile phone. The system can selectively detect and transform individual regions within each frame of a live streaming video. The system can selectively partition and toggle image effects within the live streaming video.
