Patent number: 11838595Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a networking system that provides a user experience in which users of the networking system can interact with user-generated digital content items to select and receive information about one or more products. In particular, the systems and methods involve identifying products shown within user-generated digital content items and associating the user-generated digital content items with the identified products. In addition, where a user selects a product shown within a digital content item, the systems and methods involve selectively identifying other user-generated digital content items for the user based on a coefficient between the user and the other user-generated digital content items. Moreover, the systems and methods involve tracking user-interactions with respect to digital content items and generating and providing a creation insight including an identification of one or more products predicted to engage users of the networking system.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2021Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: Meta Platforms, Inc.Inventors: Sanchan Sahai Saxena, Sergey Markov, Fei Wang, Yi-Wei Wu, Ed Ignatius Tanghal Salvana, William Taube Schurman, Youssef Ahres

Patent number: 10970884Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can obtain a media item. The media item is positioned in a content item. A plurality of histograms are generated based on colors of a first portion and a second portion of the media item. A custom background for the media item in the content item is generated based on the plurality of histograms.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2019Date of Patent: April 6, 2021Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Hongji Yang, Yuji Wang, Yuan Liang, Dan Zhang, Ren Lu, Amber Muck, Ethan Lubka, Yi-Wei Wu, Lingfei He, Yin Kam Hung, Michael Thomas Gofron

Patent number: 7881284Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for dynamically adjusting the playout delay for audio signals, which mainly includes three parts of dynamic adjustment, i.e., playout delay, silence length, and jitter buffer size. In the invention, the time for playout delay is real-time adjusted according to the probability distribution of the number of packets buffered in a jitter buffer. A voice active detection mechanism is taken to detect silence within a voice packet. By dynamically adjusting the silence length in the voice packets, the present invention reduces the network variation impact on the voice quality. It also overcomes the drawback of conventional techniques for estimating playout delay, and reduces the whole computation complexity of the playout delay for the voice packets.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2006Date of Patent: February 1, 2011Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Zhe-Hong Lin, De-Hui Shiue, Yi-Wei Wu
