Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for detecting and classifying an exposure defect in an image using neural networks trained via a limited amount of labeled training images. An image may be applied to a first neural network to determine whether the images includes an exposure defect. Detected defective image may be applied to a second neural network to determine an exposure defect classification for the image. The exposure defect classification can includes severe underexposure, medium underexposure, mild underexposure, mild overexposure, medium overexposure, severe overexposure, and/or the like. The image may be presented to a user along with the exposure defect classification.

Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that can be configured to receive data related to a gaze of a user, determine that a display should be adjusted based on the received data related to the gaze of the user, and activate a motor, where the motor causes the height of the display to be adjusted. In an example, the electronic device can also determine that the display should be rotated based on the received data related to the gaze of the user and rotate the display.
