20090116695 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING DIGITAL MEDIA - A method for processing digital media is described. In one example embodiment, the method may include detecting an unknown object in a video frame, receiving inputs representing probable identities of the unknown object in the video frame from various sources, and associating each input with the unknown object detected in the video frame. The received inputs may be processed, compared with reference data and, based on the comparison, probable identities of the object associated with the input derived. The method may further include retrieving a likelihood of the input to match the unknown object from historical data and producing weights corresponding to the inputs, fusing the inputs and the relative weight associated with each input, and identifying the unknown object based on a comparison of the weighted distances from the unknown identify to a reference identity. The relative weights are chosen from the historical data to maximize correct recognition rate based on the history of recognitions and manual verification results. | 05-07-2009 |

20130148898 | CLUSTERING OBJECTS DETECTED IN VIDEO - Identification of facial images representing both animate and inanimate objects appearing in media, such as videos, may be performed using clustering. Clusters contain facial images representing the same or similar objects, providing a database for future automated facial image identification to be performed more quickly and easily. Clustering also allows videos or other media to be indexed so that segments that contain a certain object may be found without having to search through the entire length of the media. Clustering involves separating media data into individual frames and filtering for frames with facial images. A digital media processor may then process each facial image, compare it to other facial images, and form clusterizer tracks with the objective of forming a cluster. These newly formed clusters may be compared with previously formed clusters via key faces in order to determine the identity of facial images contained in the clusters. | 06-13-2013 |
20130182918 | 3D IMAGE ESTIMATION FOR 2D IMAGE RECOGNITION - A server determines a plurality of faceprints representing a plurality of users to be recognized at a client device. Each faceprint contains a number of reference images for a given user that are used to recognize facial images of the user detecting in media captured at the client device. The faceprints delivered to the client device are determined for the client device based on the users likely to be detected in images captured at the client device. The reference images with a given faceprint delivered to the client device are selected by the server based on their recognition value in identifying the users likely to be detected in images captured at the client device. | 07-18-2013 |

20140278382 | SIGNAL DECOMPOSITION, ANALYSIS AND RECONSTRUCTION USING HIGH-RESOLUTION FILTER BANKS AND COMPONENT TRACKING - A system and method for representing quasi-periodic waveforms, for example, representing a plurality of limited decompositions of the quasi-periodic waveform. Each decomposition includes a first and second amplitude value and at least one time value.
