Publication number: 20210210094Abstract: Methods and systems for facilitating communications between shared electronic devices are described herein. In some embodiments, a group account may be assigned to a shared electronic device. The group account may include one or more user accounts, where individuals associated with those user accounts may interact with the shared electronic device, and also may form a part of the group account. When a message is sent from one shared electronic device to another personal device or shared electronic device, the message may be indicated as being sent from the group account, as if the shared electronic device corresponds to its own separate account. In some embodiments, speaker identification processing may be employed to determine a speaker of the message and, if the speaker is able to be identified, the message may be sent from the corresponding speaker's user account instead of the shared electronic device's corresponding group account.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2021Publication date: July 8, 2021Inventors: Christo Frank Devaraj, Venkata Krishnan Ramamoorthy, Gregory Michael Hart, Samuel Scott Gigliotti, Scott Southwood, Ran Mokady, Hale Sostock, Roman Yusufov

Patent number: 11003959Abstract: Categorizing images may include training a first neural network to cluster a plurality of images to obtain a first image embedding space, wherein a vector representation is determined for each of the plurality of images based on the training, determining a vector norm value corresponding to each of the plurality of images based on the vector representation for each of the plurality of images, and identifying a first subset of the images for which a corresponding vector norm value satisfies a predetermined vector norm quality threshold. Then, a second neural network may be trained using the first subset of images to obtain a second image embedding space, and the second image embedding space may be used to categorize additional images.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2019Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Ilya Levner, Konstantinos Boulis, Gurbinder Gill, Canku Calargun, Prajwal Yadapadithaya, Venkata Krishnan Ramamoorthy, Zhaoqing Ma

Patent number: 9824070Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related to contextual anchor points in content. In some embodiments, processed content may be received from a server. Contextual anchor parameters may be received from a user. A selection of an anchor target in the processed content may be received from a user. One or more contextual anchor candidates may be identified in the processed content based at least in part on the anchor target and the one or more contextual anchor parameters. The one or more contextual anchor candidates and at least a portion of the processed content may be displayed to the user. A selection of at least one contextual anchor from the one or more contextual anchor candidates may be received from the user. An association may be established between the anchor target and the contextual anchor. The processed content, anchor target, and the association may be transmitted.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2013Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Pranap SP, Venkata Krishnan Ramamoorthy
