Abstract: Devices, methods, and non-transitory program storage devices (NPSDs) are disclosed herein to provide for the privacy-respectful learning of iconic scenes and places, wherein the learning is based on information received from one or more client devices in response to one or more collection criteria specified as part of one or more collection operations launched by a server device. In some embodiments, differential privacy techniques (such as the submission of predetermined amounts of noise-injecting, e.g., randomly-generated, data in conjunction with actual data) are employed by the client devices, such that any insights learned by the server device only relate to “hot spots,” “themes,” or other scenes, objects, and/or topics that are highly popular and captured in the digital assets (DAs) of many users, ensuring there is no way for the server device to learn or glean any insights related to particular users of individual client devices participating in the collection operations.

Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can generate personalized music selections to associate with any collections of visual media (e.g., photos and videos) stored on the computing device. A user may prefer particular genres of music and listen to some genres more frequently than others. The computing device can create measures of the user's genre preferences and use these measures to select music that is preferred by the user and music that may be significant or relevant to the particular collection of visual media. The computing device may also determine music that was being played when and where the visual media were being created. The computing device may store the visual media and music items in association with each other. The computing device may generate composite media items that combine the visual media and music items. When the visual media are viewed, the selected music item is also played.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for face syncing in a distributed computing environment. In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining, by a processor, media assets that include faces of individuals; detecting, by the processor of a mobile device, the faces on the media assets; generating, by the processor, faceprints for the detected faces; clustering, by the processor, the faceprints into clusters; generating, by the processor, a face crop image for each cluster; and sending, by the processor, the face crop images to a network-based, distributed syncing service.

Abstract: A set of media items may be matched with a media arrangement that displays the media items in the set in a group of frames. The media arrangement may extend across an area larger than a viewable area of a display device. In order to determine the media items that appear within a viewable area, a list of media items may be divided into two portions, one on either side of a middle item in the list. If any part of a frame with which the middle item is associated is within an extended spatial area that extends beyond the viewable area, the middle item may be eliminated from the list, when no part of the frame with which the middle item is associated is within the extended area. The process may be repeated until it is determined that a part of a frame with which the middle item is associated is within the extended area.

Abstract: A set of media items may be matched with a media arrangement that displays the media items in the set in a group of frames having various sizes and positions. The media arrangement may extend across an area that is larger than a viewable area of a display device on which the media arrangement is displayed. A user may adjust (e.g., scroll) the viewable portion of the media arrangement. Because the media arrangement may include a large number of media items, it may not be feasible or possible to retrieve and load all of the media items into media frames in advance. Thus, a method and system may be used to progressively load media items into media frames for the viewable area and to pre-fetch media items for areas of the media arrangement that may be displayed after the current viewable area.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure present devices, methods, and computer readable medium for disambiguating clustered location identifiers. A location identifier can be the name of a business or establishment. Digital assets contain a plurality of metadata that can be used to identify the location or establishment at which digital assets were captured. Techniques can use various types contextual information based on a category of the digital asset for disambiguation. Automatically labelling the digital assets assists a user in organizing and sharing the digital assets with friends and family. Users can search for digital assets by the name of the location where the digital assets were captured.

Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device may create a semantic mapping that includes identified features that appear in a particular percentage of assets in a subset of assets of a media library. Also, the computing device may analyze assets of the media library using the semantic mapping to generate semantic scores, which may be used to determine a first tier of assets from the media library that rate highest for semantic score out of all assets. The computing device may present at least one of the first tier assets prominently in a user interface when viewing assets of the media library.

Abstract: Techniques of digital asset management (DAM) are described. A DAM system can obtain a knowledge graph metadata network describing relationships between metadata associated with a user's collection of digital assets (DAs), e.g., images, videos, music, etc. Based on information obtained, e.g., from the user's DA collection and/or the knowledge graph metadata network, the DAM system may provide users with more intelligent (and automated) DA sharing suggestions that are as relevant as possible for a given context. In some embodiments, the sharing suggestions may be based on one or more DAs recently shared with the user from a third party. In other embodiments, a proactive sharing suggestion may be presented to a user based on a detected indication of an intent to share DAs, e.g., based on the extraction of relevant features from an incoming message from a third party (or an outgoing message from the user to a third party).
