A method and system for determining access permissions to personalized clusters of multimedia content elements are provided. The method includes receiving a permission index designating at least the content description of at least one personalized cluster and an authentication factor; analyzing the content description; checking if there is at least one personalized cluster that matches the analyzed content description; and generating privacy metadata for each matching personalized cluster, wherein the privacy metadata includes at least the authentication factor associated with the respective content description matching the personalized cluster, wherein the generate privacy metadata determines access permission to the matching personalized cluster.

Techniques associated with data management and distribution are described, including receiving at a content distribution and management system activity data associated with a user from a client, the client having an interface configured to display commercial content and a player configured to access the content distribution and management system, storing the activity data in a database, displaying the commercial content using the interface, receiving other activity data associated with the user from the client, storing the other activity data in the database, determining other commercial content to display using the activity data and the other activity data, and displaying the other commercial content.

A system and method for at least partially completing a user profile. The method includes analyzing the user profile to identify at least one missing informational element in the user profile, wherein identifying the at least one missing element further comprises determining at least one concept based on the user profile and matching the determined at least one concept to a plurality of category concepts, each concept including a collection of signatures and metadata describing the concept, wherein each category concept is associated with at least one required informational element, wherein each missing informational element is one of the at least one required informational element that is not included in the user profile; sending a query for the missing informational element; and updating at least a portion of the user profile based on a response to the query.

A visual communications (VC) tool creating visual arrangements and presenting the visual arrangements to others for feedback and comment in an efficient and secure manner. An author uses the VC tool to generate a folio, storyboard, or presentation, and publishes the generated arrangement to desired recipients. The published arrangement is uploaded to a server once, and a recipient equipped with a copy of the VC tool downloads the arrangement in response to a notification from the server. Thereafter, only changes to the visual arrangement are uploaded to the server and forwarded to the recipient. The recipient may transmit a comment on the visual arrangement back to the author's VC tool. The author's VC tool tracks and automatically correlates all received comments to their respective arrangements, allowing them to be concurrently displayed on a single screen.

An Autonomous Vehicle (AV) system is described. The AV system is capable of determining at motor control command associated with an AV trajectory. The AV system includes a content generating device, a system controller, and an AV sensor. The content generating device collects target data associated with a target. The system controller is communicatively coupled to the content generating device. The system controller extracts target features from the target data. Also, the system controller compares the extracted target features to target model data to determine a target pose. Additionally, the system controller determines the AV trajectory by comparing the target pose with at least one target objective. The AV sensor determines an AV state. The system controller determines a motor control command associated with the AV trajectory based on the AV state, the target objective, and the AV trajectory.

A system, method and computer readable medium for providing translated web content is disclosed. The method on an information processing system includes retrieving a first content in a first language and parsing the first content into a plurality of translatable components. The method further includes generating a unique identifier for each of the plurality of translatable components of the first content and queuing the plurality of translatable components and corresponding unique identifiers for translation into a second language. The method further includes, for each of the plurality of translatable components, storing a translated component and an associated unique identifier corresponding to the translatable component, thereby storing a plurality of translated components and corresponding unique identifiers.

Embodiments of the invention include a system and set of processes for organizing image collections. The system detects individuals in each image uploaded into the system using facial recognition or similar methods. The user and viewers of the images may then view dynamic albums based on the interrelationships of individuals in images. Users and viewers may browse all images with an individual or see albums of images with two selected individuals or similar combinations based on the relationships between users.

Systems and methods for managing electronic data are disclosed. Various data management operations can be performed based on a metabase formed from metadata. Such metadata can be identified from an index of data interactions generated by a journaling module, and obtained from their associated data objects stored in one or more storage devices. In various embodiments, such processing of the index and storing of the metadata can facilitate, for example, enhanced data management operations, enhanced data identification operations, enhanced storage operations, data classification for organizing and storing the metadata, cataloging of metadata for the stored metadata, and/or user interfaces for managing data. In various embodiments, the metabase can be configured in different ways. For example, the metabase can be stored separately from the data objects so as to allow obtaining of information about the data objects without accessing the data objects or a data structure used by a file system.

A method and system for generating signatures for three-dimensional multimedia data elements. The method comprises receiving by a three-dimensional multimedia data element; projecting the received three-dimensional multimedia data element on at least one two-dimensional plane, wherein the projection results in two-dimensional graphic representations of the received three-dimensional multimedia data element; generating by a signature generator at least one signature for each of the plurality of two-dimensional graphic representations; assembling by an assembler unit the plurality of signatures generated for each of the plurality of two-dimensional graphic representations to generate a complex signature, wherein the complex signature is the signature representing the three-dimensional multimedia data element; and storing the signatures of each of the two-dimensional graphic representations of the at least one three-dimensional multimedia data element and the complex signature in association with the three-dimensional multimedia data element in a storage unit.

A method includes selecting a database on a system and selecting a style format on the system. The database contains data information for the web application, and the style format is applied to the web application. The method also includes selecting a validation rule for the web application, selecting a business rule for the web application, dynamically rendering the web application from a database to a web browser, and dynamically editing the web application. The web application incorporates the selected database and the selected style format instantaneously upon dynamic rendering.
