Abstract: A modulated segmentation system can use a modulator network to emphasize spatial prior data of an object to track the object across multiple images. The modulated segmentation system can use a segmentation network that receives spatial prior data as intermediate data that improves segmentation accuracy. The segmentation network can further receive visual guide information from a visual guide network to increase tracking accuracy via segmentation.

Abstract: A machine learning scheme can be trained on a set of labeled training images of a subject in different poses, with different textures, and with different background environments. The label or marker data of the subject may be stored as metadata to a 3D model of the subject or rendered images of the subject. The machine learning scheme may be implemented as a supervised learning scheme that can automatically identify the labeled data to create a classification model. The classification model can classify a depicted subject in many different environments and arrangements (e.g., poses).

Abstract: A method includes receiving video data that includes a series of frames of image data. Here, the video data is representative of an actor performing an activity. The method also includes processing the video data to generate a spatial input stream including a series of spatial images representative of spatial features of the actor performing the activity, a temporal input stream representative of motion of the actor performing the activity, and a pose input stream including a series of images representative of a pose of the actor performing the activity. Using at least one neural network, the method also includes processing the temporal input stream, the spatial input stream, and the pose input stream. The method also includes classifying, by the at least one neural network, the activity based on the temporal input stream, the spatial input stream, and the pose input stream.

Abstract: A machine learning system can generate an image mask (e.g., a pixel mask) comprising pixel assignments for pixels. The pixels can be assigned to classes, including, for example, face, clothes, body skin, or hair. The machine learning system can be implemented using a convolutional neural network that is configured to execute efficiently on computing devices having limited resources, such as mobile phones. The pixel mask can be used to more accurately display video effects interacting with a user or subject depicted in the image.

Abstract: A mobile device can generate real-time complex visual image effects using asynchronous processing pipeline. A first pipeline applies a complex image process, such as a neural network, to keyframes of a live image sequence. A second pipeline generates flow maps that describe feature transformations in the image sequence. The flow maps can be used to process non-keyframes on the fly. The processed keyframes and non-keyframes can be used to display a complex visual effect on the mobile device in real-time or near real-time.

Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for modeling facial representations using image segmentation with a client device. The systems and methods receive an image depicting a face, detect at least a portion of the face within the image, and identify a set of facial features within the portion of the face. The systems and methods generate a descriptor function representing the set of facial features, fit object functions of the descriptor function, identify an identification probability for each facial feature, and assign an identification to each facial feature.
