Publication number: 20240378771Abstract: A method for modifying an image is described. The method involves capturing an image using an image sensor of a device, saving the image in a temporary area in the device's memory, then, upon storing the image in the temporary area, applying a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based stylization to the image in the temporary area as a background process of the device's processors to create a stylized image. This stylized image is then stored as metadata to the original image in the temporary area. Upon receiving instructions to display the image in the temporary area on the device, the image and a thumbnail of the stylized image are displayed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2024Publication date: November 14, 2024Inventors: Jaewook Chung, Wisam Dakka, Christopher Yale Crutchfield, Aymeric Damien, Emre Yamangil, Chunhui Zhu

Patent number: 11989166Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for a decision layer of a multi-layer data platform. The decision layer may process application queries and serve the queries based on a dataset of previously generated and indexed data or, as a last resort, queries the blockchain node directly. Using indexed blockchain data to serve application queries reduces latency and downtime of traditional systems that direct queries to blockchain nodes immediately. Furthermore, the decision layer overcomes high latency and downtime issues associated with a pool of load-balanced nodes by reducing the number of direct queries to a blockchain. When applications rely on data directly queried from a blockchain, they are susceptible to limited availability, a problem that the decision layer mitigates with indexed and updated blockchain data.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2022Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Coinbase, Inc.Inventors: Leo Liang, Jie Zhang, Wisam Dakka, Xiaolei Peng

Publication number: 20240104551Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for performing a cold start operation of a system for acquiring non-fungible tokens (NFTs) using on-chain data. In particular, a user feed initialization system may receive an on-chain address associated with a cryptography-based storage application (e.g., an address associated with a crypto wallet of a user) and determine, based on the on-chain address, NFTs that the user's cryptography-based storage application controls (e.g., NFTs that the user owns). The user feed initialization system may use on-chain data associated with the NFTs (e.g., via interrogating the on-chain programs associated with the NFTs that the user owns) to identify (e.g., via a machine learning model) other NFTs that the user may desire to acquire.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 23, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: Coinbase, Inc.Inventors: Chaoqing LU, Catalin TISEANU, Wisam DAKKA

Patent number: 11429656Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for scaled delivery of media content. The systems and methods assign a set of proposed designations to a plurality of media content. The systems and methods select a set of media content from the plurality of media content based on the set of proposed designations and distribute a subset of media content of the set of media content to a selected user of a plurality of users. The subset of media content is presented at a computing device associated with the selected user. The systems and methods receive a set of indicators for each media content of the subset of media content. Each indicator represents an interaction with a media content of the subset of media content. The systems and methods cause presentation of an interaction notification at the computing device associated with the selected user.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Snap Inc.Inventors: Matthew Lee Cook, Wisam Dakka, Wesley Evans, Andre Madeira
