Abstract:
A method of interacting with an audience of multimedia content is disclosed. The method includes receiving, from a client device, data associated with a piece of multimedia content from a group of pieces of multimedia content that is presented to a user of the client device. The data is obtained at the client device in response to an instruction provided to the client device by the user. The method includes determining, based on the data, an identifier of the piece of multimedia content from a set of identifiers, each of which identifies a piece of multimedia content from the group of pieces of multimedia content. The method includes retrieving, based on the identifier of the piece of multimedia content, interactive content associated with the piece of multimedia content. The method includes sending the interactive content to the client device such that the client device presents the interactive content to the user.
Abstract:
Various embodiments provide methods, apparatus, and electronic devices for image capturing. An exemplary image capturing method can include first acquiring image information via a camera contained in an electronic device and then detecting whether a shake amplitude of the electronic device is within a pre-set range. When the shake amplitude of the electronic device is detected within the pre-set range, the image information acquired by the camera can be captured. An exemplary image capturing apparatus can include an acquisition module for acquiring image information; a first detection module for detecting whether a shake amplitude of an electronic device is within a pre-set range; and a capturing module for capturing the image information, when the first detection module detects that the shake amplitude of the electronic device is within the pre-set range.
Abstract:
A method of testing and monitoring a real-time streaming media recognition service provider is performed at a computer system. The computer system obtains a streaming media signal source, selects a testing sample from the streaming media signal source, records characteristics of the testing sample, and obtains an expected output according to the characteristics of the testing sample. Next, the computer system converts the testing sample into a digital streaming format preset by the service provider and initiates a media recognition request according to the testing sample in the digital streaming format to the service provider. After receiving a media recognition result of the testing sample returned by the service provider according to the media recognition request, the computer system compares the media recognition result with the expected output and indicates whether the service provider is normal in accordance with the comparison result.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for program identification. For example, a first audio fingerprint corresponding to a first audio signal is acquired; whether one or more second audio fingerprints in a predetermined fingerprint database match with the first audio fingerprint is detected, a second audio fingerprint corresponding to a second audio signal; and in response to one of the second audio fingerprints matching with the first audio fingerprint, a program associated with the matching second audio signal is provided as a result for program identification associated with the first audio signal.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for user login. For example, a login request from a first user is received, the login request being associated with fast login based on at least information associated with facial authentication; one or more first facial images of the first user are acquired; one or more first facial features are extracted from the one or more first facial images; the first facial features are compared with a predetermined feature template; and in response to a comparison result associated with the first facial features and the predetermined feature template exceeding a predetermined threshold, the first user is allowed to log in based on predetermined first user information of the first user.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for facial property identification. For example, an image sample is acquired; a first effective area image of a face is acquired in the image sample; first textural features of the first effective area image are extracted: and the first textural features of the first effective area image are classified by race, gender and age using a race classifier, a gender classifier and an age classifier successively to obtain a race property, a gender property and an age property of the face.
Abstract:
A method of providing an interactive content to a prospective user at a mobile device, the mobile device including a non-transitory computer readable medium including a computer executable program code and a processor for executing the computer executable program code is described. The method includes steps for initiating capture of an audio stream by shaking the mobile device; capturing the audio stream via a microphone in the mobile device; converting the captured audio stream into an audio fingerprint; sending the audio fingerprint to a server; receiving the interactive content from the server if there is a match between audio fingerprints stored on the server, and the audio fingerprint sent by the mobile device; and displaying the interactive content on the mobile device.
Abstract:
A method for identifying relevant information of an object using a mobile terminal that has a built-in camera, a processor, and memory for storing programs to be executed by the processor is provided. The method includes automatically generating a plurality of image frames while the built-in camera pointing at the object; automatically transmitting one or more of the plurality of image frames to a remote server, wherein different transmitted image frames satisfy distinct predefined conditions; receiving information from the server when at least one of the transmitted image frames matches an image stored at the server, wherein the image corresponds to the object and is associated with information relevant to the object; and displaying the information relevant to the object at the mobile terminal.

Abstract:
A digital video conversion device is communicatively coupled to a TV set and a TV signal source, respectively, so as to pass TV signals from the TV signal source to the TV set. Upon receipt of a TV channel identification request from a mobile terminal via a wireless communication channel, the digital video conversion device acquires an image from the TV signals currently broadcasted on the TV set and extracts a plurality of station logo characteristic sets from the image, each station logo characteristic set corresponding to one of a plurality of station logo templates. After calculating a similarity score between each station logo characteristic set and a corresponding station logo template, the digital video conversion device identifies one of the plurality of station logo templates as matching the image based on their similarity scores and returns TV channel information associated with the identified station logo template to the mobile terminal.
