A digital picture frame including a camera integrated with the frame, and a network connection module allowing the frame for direct contact and upload of photos from electronic devices or from a user's social media account or her or his community members' social media accounts. The integrated camera is used to automatically determine an identity of a frame viewer, and a viewer profile automatically determined from the identity of the viewer. The displayed photos are automatically shown and/or changed according to the detected viewers.

A voice input may be received, and from the voice input, a topic may be identified. A sentiment score for the topic may be generated using sentiment analysis on the voice input, and the sentiment score may reflect an individual's reaction to the topic. The sentiment score may be compared to a sentiment threshold. In response, one or more images may be selected, based on the topic, from an image database. The one or more images may be validated, and then displayed.

Empty container identification method and system are disclosed. The method includes: obtaining customs declaration information, and finding out an vehicle declared as an empty container or an empty vehicle from the customs declaration information; performing X-ray inspection on the vehicle to acquire a transmission image of the vehicle; inputting the transmission image into an empty container identification model obtained by pre-training, so that the empty container identification model determines candidate regions of the transmission image, and performs post-processing analysis on the candidate regions to obtain an image identification result; and comparing the image identification result with the corresponding customs declaration information to determine whether or not the image identification result is consistent with the customs declaration information.

A method including receiving a compositional constraint from a user for merging multiple images to create a canvas, is provided. The method includes finding a vector for the canvas in a merged space associated with the compositional constraint, and generating a synthetic image for the canvas based on the vector for the canvas and a generative tool trained in a generative adversarial configuration against a discriminative tool. The method also includes providing the synthetic image for the canvas to a user when the discriminative tool identifies the synthetic image as a real image. A system and a non-transitory, computer readable medium storing instructions to perform the above method are also provided.

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for capturing, collecting, and distributing event information displayed on signs. The method may include capturing, by a mobile device, an image of a sign that displays information for an event. The method may also include extracting information for the event from the captured image of the sign, and determining a location of the mobile device when the image of the sign was captured. Furthermore, the method may include uploading, to a server, a time when the image was captured, the information for the event extracted from the captured image, a location of the event determined from extracted event information, a location of the sign, or a combination thereof.

A data management device, communication system and methods for tagging data in a data table and triggering automated action. A data management device receives from a first data provider one or more records of a data table, each record comprising a plurality of fields. The data table is associated with an account having one or more authorized users. The plurality of fields each has a value set by the first data provider. The data manger determines one or more tags for the one or more records in accordance with a plurality of autotagging rules. The autotagging rules include heuristic rules learned from user behavior and based on one or more of the plurality of fields of the record. The data manger appends the one or more records to include one or more tag fields corresponding to the one or more tags for the one or more records. The appended records are stored in a database. One or more automated actions may be triggered based on one or more tag fields of one or more of the plurality of records.

Systems and methods for replacing a 2D image with an equivalent 3D image within a web page. Content of a 2D image displayed within a web page may be identified and 3D images may be identified as possible replacements of the 2D image. The 3D images may be ranked based on sets of ranking criteria. A 3D image with a highest-ranking value may be selected based on a ranking of the 3D images. The selected 3D image may be integrated into the web page, thereby replacing the 2D image with the selected 3D image. Further, a user input manipulating the 3D image within the web page may be received. The user input may include movement of a view point of a user relative to a display displaying the web page and/or detection of a beam projected from an end of a user input device intersecting with the 3D image.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to systems and methods for automatic tagging of objects on a multi-view interactive digital media representation of a dynamic entity. According to particular embodiments, the spatial relationship between multiple images and video is analyzed together with location information data, for purposes of creating a representation referred to herein as a multi-view interactive digital media representation for presentation on a device. Multi-view interactive digital media representations correspond to multi-view interactive digital media representations of the dynamic objects in backgrounds. A first multi-view interactive digital media representation of a dynamic object is obtained. Next, the dynamic object is tagged. Then, a second multi-view interactive digital media representation of the dynamic object is generated. Finally, the dynamic object in the second multi-view interactive digital media representation is automatically identified and tagged.

Disclosed is a system for tracking user activities with a user identification tag stored at the user's Internet-capable device. For example, the system can store a pixel having a color scheme that identifies the user but that is hidden to the user and identifiable by an external computer. The pixel can be stored in the user device's cache for later identification of the user.
