Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for managing application program interface calls.

An information processing method comprises: acquiring an original webpage; parsing the original webpage to determine a set of candidate images; detecting whether at least one candidate image in the set of candidate images contains a face; determining a target face from at least one detected face, and determining a candidate image corresponding to the target face as a target image; analyzing the target face to obtain at least one content feature of the original webpage, wherein the at least one content feature includes at least one of a face attribute feature and a personal identity feature; determining display contents matching the at least one content feature based on the at least one content feature; inserting the display contents into a target area corresponding to the target image in the original webpage in a form of a dialog box to acquire a target webpage; and outputting the target webpage.

A facility for constructing an advertising message in connection with a web page is described. The facility obtains text associated with the web page, and uses the obtained text to generate a query. The facility uses the generated query to select a stock photography image, and generates an advertising message that incorporates the selected stock photography image.

The disclosure includes a system and method for generating virtual reality content. For example, the disclosure includes a method for generating virtual reality content that includes a stream of three-dimensional video data and a stream of three-dimensional audio data with a processor-based computing device programmed to perform the generating, providing the virtual reality content to a user, detecting a location of the user's gaze at the virtual reality content, and suggesting an advertisement based on the location of the user's gaze. Another example includes receiving virtual reality content that includes a stream of three-dimensional video data and a stream of three-dimensional audio data to a first user with a processor-based computing device programmed to perform the receiving, generating a social network for the first user, and generating a social graph that includes user interactions with the virtual reality content.

The disclosure includes a camera array comprising camera modules, the camera modules comprising a master camera that includes a processor, a memory, a sensor, a lens, a status indicator, and a switch, the switch configured to instruct each of the camera modules to initiate a start operation to start recording video data using the lens and the sensor in the other camera modules and the switch configured to instruct each of the camera modules to initiate a stop operation to stop recording, the status indicator configured to indicate a status of at least one of the camera modules. The camera modules of the camera array are configured to provide a 3 field of view overlap.

Embodiments are described herein that involve receiving, by a social-media computing system from a media playback system, playback data indicating media that is being played back by the media playback system, where the playback data comprises an indication of at least one zone of the media playback system in which the media is being played back; and based on the received playback data, updating social-media data in a social-media account, where the updated social-media data comprises an indication of the at least one zone in which the media is currently being played back.

An invention is disclosed for systems, methods, processes, and products of providing information to users based on their relationships with other users. Such a system, method, process, or product provides a more reliable, accurate, or otherwise effective way of determining and presenting relevant information to users, consumers, and the like.

Methods, systems, and media for identifying automatically refreshed advertisements are provided. In some embodiments, a method for modifying advertisement spending is provided, the method comprising: receiving advertisement delivery information associated with a plurality of advertisements displayed on a web page; generating a distribution of an amount of time that the plurality of advertisements were displayed on the web page using the advertisement delivery information; identifying a deviation in the generated distribution; determining whether the deviation correlates to an automatic refresh command performed by one or more browser applications; and providing an indication corresponding to the plurality of advertisements that were displayed on the web page in response to the automatic refresh command based on the determination.

An example system may include instructions to control processor(s) to receive text from content of a first web page, determine, based on the content, a first title topic indicator, a first sentiment indicator, and a first text subjectivity indicator, apply the first title topic indicator, the first sentiment indicator, and the first text subjectivity indicator to a credibility machine learning model to generate a first content credibility score and a first content bias score for the text of the first web page, the credibility machine learning model being trained on text from other web pages using known title topic indicators, known sentiment indicators, and known text subjectivity indicators, and known credibility scores and bias scores, generate a first graphical representation for the first content credibility score and the first bias credibility score, and provide the graphical representation to a first digital device.

A playback page, which can include embedded media players and a user interface that functions as an Internet media station tuner, can be transmitted from a web server to a web browser running on a client computer. In response to receiving a message from the playback page indicating a user-selected media station, the web server transmits a message instructing the media station to transmit a tagged media stream to one media player (a Content Playback Instance), and transmits a browser file to an advertisement server. The browser file includes information used by the advertisement server to select targeted media content to be inserted into an untagged media stream delivered to another media player (an Ad Spot Playback Instance). The web server controls whether the Content Playback Instance presents a tagged media stream, or the Ad Spot Playback Instance presents targeted content, at any particular time.
