20130177252 | Detecting Video Copies - A computer-implemented method for detecting a copy of a reference video, comprises segmenting respective ones of multiple frames of the reference video into multiple regions, determining sets of image features appearing in respective ones of the multiple frames, determining a measure for the relative number of image features for a given region across the multiple frames, generating a spatio-temporal signature for the reference video using the determined measures, and comparing the signature for the reference video against a spatio-temporal signature of a query video to determine a likelihood of a match. | 07-11-2013 |
20130215219 | MULTICASTING MULTIVIEW 3D VIDEO - Apparatus, comprising a wireless transceiver to wirelessly communicate with multiple recipients, control logic coupled to the wireless transceiver to determine an amount of available bandwidth for multicasting multiple data streams for the recipients, the control logic to select an encoded data stream including data substreams relating to at least first and second video reference views and corresponding depth data for respective ones of the video reference views to transmit to a recipient via the wireless transceiver on the basis of the determined bandwidth. | 08-22-2013 |
20150039538 | METHOD FOR PROCESSING A LARGE-SCALE DATA SET, AND ASSOCIATED APPARATUS - A method for processing at least part of a large-scale dataset, the method comprising: receiving a dataset including a plurality of data points; generating a hash value for at least some of the data points; sorting the generated hash values into a plurality of buckets of identical or substantially identical hash values; generating a similarity matrix for each of the buckets; and applying a machine learning algorithm to the similarity matrices. | 02-05-2015 |
20150093017 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CREATING DEPTH SIGNATURES - A method and system for creating a depth signature from plural images for providing watermark information related to the images. The method comprises analysing a pair of images, each image containing a plurality of elements, identifying a first element in one of the pair of images, identifying plural elements in the other of the pair of images. The method further comprises measuring a disparity parameter between the first element and a set of the plural elements, matching the first element from the set of plural elements, the matched second element having the smallest measured disparity parameter, and computing a signature based at least in part on the measured disparity between the first and second elements. | 04-02-2015 |
20150120750 | SYSTEM AND METHOD TO STORE VIDEO FINGERPRINTS ON DISTRIBUTED NODES IN CLOUD SYSTEMS - A method to design, implement and create distributed indexes for storing and comparing fingerprints of videos is presented. The method effectively utilises cloud computing platforms that offer varying amounts of computing resources. The method enables the distributed index to scale to large numbers of data points and the distributed index is robust to failures within the computing resources maintaining the index. The method minimizes the memory required to maintain the distributed index and reduces the I/O operations needed to process operations performed on the index. The method improves the efficiency of the index to process queries. | 04-30-2015 |
20150128136 | GRAPHICS PROCESSING UNIT CONTROLLER, HOST SYSTEM, AND METHODS - A graphics processing unit controller configured to be communicatively coupled to one or more graphics processing units and one or more virtual machines, comprising: a unit collection module which is configured to store information regarding the available resources of one or more graphics processing units; and a scheduler module configured to allocate at least part of the one or more graphics processing units to the execution of a compute kernel in response to receipt of a request for the execution of the compute kernel, wherein the scheduler is configured to allocate at least part of the one or more graphics processing units based on a comparison between the available resources of the one or more graphics processing units and required resources for the execution of the compute kernel. | 05-07-2015 |
