Patent number: 11308155Abstract: Images are intelligently selected to create image narratives. Instead of a user having to manually search and locate images to view, the images to associate with a particular image narrative are programmatically determined. Many different types of image narratives may be created. For example, one image narrative may show images that include both a first user and a second user over some period of time. Another image narrative may show images that relate to an activity that a first user enjoys or an event that included the user (e.g., a graduation). The tags and metadata associated with the images of the user are analyzed to determine the tags that are important to the user. For example, the importance might be determined based on the frequency of the tags within the images. After creation, the user may select one of the image narratives to view the associated images.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2019Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Yi Li, Yuxin Wu, Yushan Chen, Meng Wang

Patent number: 10657669Abstract: A method, a device and a computer program product for determining a geographical location of a user are disclosed. The method comprises: extracting characters or icons in an image taken at a place where the user is located; analyzing the extracted characters or icons to determine a meaning of the characters or the icons; and determining the geographical location of the user based on the meaning of the characters or the icons. With the method, the device and the computer program product, the geographical location of the user may be accurately determined in various scenarios.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2015Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignees: BEIJING KUANGSHI TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD., PINHOLE (BEIJING) TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventors: Shuchang Zhou, Xinyu Zhou, Yuxin Wu, Jianan Wu

Patent number: 10387161Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for implementing an extensible, light-weight, flexible (ELF) processing platform that can efficiently capture state information from multiple threads during execution of instructions (e.g., an instance of a game). The ELF processing platform supports execution of multiple threads in a single process for parallel execution of multiple instances of the same or different program code or games. Upon capturing the state information, one or more threads may be executed in the ELF platform to compute one or more actions to perform at any state of execution by each of those threads. The threads can easily access the state information from a shared memory space and use the state information to implement rule-based and/or learning-based techniques for determining subsequent actions for execution for the threads.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2017Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Yuandong Tian, Qucheng Gong, Yuxin Wu

Patent number: 10043086Abstract: Provided are a liveness authentication method and apparatus. The method comprises: filtering out light of a first predetermined waveband from incident light incident to a first area; detecting an intensity of the filtered light as a first light intensity; and determining that a liveness authentication is failed in the case that the first light intensity satisfies a predetermined condition. The liveness authentication is performed through determining whether the incident light is cold light. In the case that the incident light is light emitted from a liquid crystal display screen, it is determined that the incident light is the cold light, and it is determined that the liveness authentication is failed.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2015Date of Patent: August 7, 2018Assignees: BEIJING KUANGSHI TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD., PINHOLE (BEIJING) TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventors: Shuchang Zhou, Xinyu Zhou, Yuxin Wu
