The method extracts one or more frames from a plurality of frames in a multimedia content based on a measure of area occupied by a text content in a portion of each of the plurality of frames. The method selects one or more sentences from an audio content associated with the multimedia content based on at least a weight associated with a plurality of words present in the audio content. The method extracts one or more audio segments from the audio content associated with the multimedia content based on one or more parameters associated with the audio content. The method creates the summarized multimedia content based on the one or more frames, the one or more sentences, and the one or more audio segments.

Methods and apparatus to measure brand exposure in media streams are disclosed. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes a brand identifier detector to compare first data associated with a first scene of a media stream with second data associated with a reference scene including a first brand identifier to detect the first brand identifier in the first scene of the media stream. The example apparatus also includes a measure and tracking module to combine respective locations of the first brand identifier in respective frames of a first sequence of image frames forming the first scene to determine a weighted location for the first brand identifier. The example apparatus further includes a report generator to report appearance data corresponding to the first brand identifier, the appearance data including the weighted location for the first brand identifier.

A display control device (10) detects change of a screen, and executes, depending on the detected change of the screen, any one or both of provisional update processing that generates a strip-shaped rectangular region extended in a vertical direction or a horizontal direction based on the position of an icon displayed on the screen, searches the screen for a region similar to a specified image template by using the rectangular region as a search range, and performs overlay display of an icon in the similar region, and definitive update processing that searches for a region similar to the image template by using a region larger than a search range of the provisional update processing as a search range, and performs overlay display of an icon at a position corresponding to the similar region.

Various embodiments are directed to one or more transcoder devices in communication with an input device such as a remote control device and multiple destination devices in which the transcoder device(s) facilitate communication between the remote control and the various destination devices in the vicinity. The transcoder device(s) can also provide the user with an environmental awareness of conditions and events surrounding the user. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A method for detecting a static logo of a video, an electronic apparatus and a storage medium. The method includes: calculating a pixel grayscale flag value, an edge gradient flag value and an edge direction flag value; calculating, in a preset neighborhood centered on the pixel at each pixel position of the current video frame, a first local confidence degree of the pixel grayscale flag value, a second local confidence degree of the edge gradient flag value, and a third local confidence degree of the edge direction flag value respectively; calculating a contribution score of each local confidence degree and a total contribution score of each pixel position; and gathering the total contribution score of each pixel position of the current video frame, and determining a static logo in the current video frame according to the total contribution score of each pixel position.

This application provides a method and a device for associating a panoramic image with a point of interest, an electronic device and a storage medium. A specific implementation solution is as follows: performing text recognition on a panoramic image associated with a target point of interest, and determining target text information; acquiring a set of panoramic images including the target text information among a plurality of panoramic images associated with the target point of interest; acquiring a panoramic screenshot corresponding to each panoramic image in the set of panoramic images to acquire a set of panoramic screenshots, where one panoramic image is formed by splicing a plurality of panoramic screenshots; and determining a target panoramic screenshot in the set of panoramic screenshots, and associating the target panoramic screenshot with the target point of interest, where the target panoramic screenshot includes the target text information.

Technology for taking presentation data (for example, video images from a movie, audio from a podcast), determining that the content includes an untrue assertion (for example, “the United States only has 48 states”) and automatically correcting the presentation so that the untrue assertion is corrected (for example, replacing an incorrect video caption with “the United States has 50 states as of early 2021”).

A method and a device for generating an emoticon are provided. A first expression tag list corresponding to a face image in a portrait is acquired by inputting the face image into an expression recognition model. Additionally, at least one label text corresponding to the face image is determined based on the first expression tag list and a correspondence between a preset text and a second expression tag list. Furthermore, an expression image corresponding to the portrait is determined, where the face image is a part of the expression image. Moreover, an emoticon is generated by labelling the expression image with the at least one label text.
