    Abstract: A method for detecting a cue (e.g., a visual cue or a visual cue combined with an audible cue) occurring together in an input video includes: presenting a user interface to record an example video of a user performing an act including the cue; determining a part of the example video where the cue occurs; applying a feature of the part to a neural network to generate a positive embedding; dividing the input video into a plurality of chunks and applying a feature of each chunk to the neural network to generate a plurality of negative embeddings; applying a feature of a given one of the chunks to the neural network to output a query embedding; and determining whether the cue occurs in the input video from the query embedding, the positive embedding, and the negative embeddings.

    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to techniques for interacting with a hierarchical video segmentation. In some embodiments, the finest level of the hierarchical segmentation identifies the smallest interaction unit of a video—semantically defined video segments of unequal duration called clip atoms. Each level of the hierarchical segmentation clusters the clip atoms with a corresponding degree of granularity into a corresponding set of video segments. A presented video timeline is segmented based on one of the levels, and one or more segments are selected through interactions with the video timeline (e.g., clicks, drags), by performing a metadata search, or through selection of corresponding metadata segments from a metadata panel. Navigating to a different level of the hierarchy transforms the selection into corresponding coarser or finer video segments defined by the level. Any operation can be performed on selected video segments, including playing back, trimming, or editing.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for generating an animation of a talking head from an input audio signal of speech and a representation (such as a static image) of a head to animate. Generally, a neural network can learn to predict a set of 3D facial landmarks that can be used to drive the animation. In some embodiments, the neural network can learn to detect different speaking styles in the input speech and account for the different speaking styles when predicting the 3D facial landmarks. Generally, template 3D facial landmarks can be identified or extracted from the input image or other representation of the head, and the template 3D facial landmarks can be used with successive windows of audio from the input speech to predict 3D facial landmarks and generate a corresponding animation with plausible 3D effects.
