A method, performed by an image processing device, of encrypting image data includes: selecting an encryption target unit from among a plurality units constituting an image; generating a table including identification information about the encryption target unit; generating a first encryption unit including data obtained by encrypting the encryption target unit; generating a second encryption unit including data obtained by encrypting the table; and generating a bitstream including the first encryption unit, the second encryption unit, and units other than the encryption target unit among the plurality of units constituting the image.

The present disclosure provides video processing methods, apparatuses and systems. The method includes: obtaining a to-be-processed video, where the to-be-processed video is obtained by performing feature removal processing for one or more objects in an original video; obtaining a feature restoration processing request for one or more to-be-processed objects; according to the feature restoration processing request for the one or more to-be-processed objects, obtaining feature image information corresponding to the one or more to-be-processed objects, where the feature image information for one of the one or more to-be-processed objects includes pixel position information of all or part of features for the one of the one or more to-be-processed objects in the original video; according to the feature image information for the one or more to-be-processed objects, performing feature restoration processing for the one or more to-be-processed objects in the to-be-processed video.

Systems and methods are provided herein for determining types of references within a content item and mapping them to particular applications. A content management application identifies an entity and a context of the entity at a location within the content item. The content management application may identify the entity and the context of the entity in real time as a first user device processes the content item, or the content management application may identify and store the entity and the context of the entity in a database before providing the content item. After determining a presence of a second user device associated with a profile, the content management application determines at least one application associated with the entity and the context of the entity on the second user device and launches the application to create an immersive content consumption experience.

Embodiments of this application provide a data processing method, apparatus, and device for point cloud media, and a storage medium. The method includes: acquiring information of an i.sup.th attribute component of point cloud media, the point cloud media including N attribute components, the i.sup.th attribute component being any one of the N attribute components, the information of the i.sup.th attribute component being used for indicating at least one of a mandatory and a priority of the i.sup.th attribute component, both N and i being positive integers and i∈[1, N]; and parsing the i.sup.th attribute component based on the information of the i.sup.th attribute component. The method relates to the field of point cloud media technologies, and can improve parsing processing efficiency for point cloud media to a certain extent by indicating a mandatory and a priority of an attribute component of the point cloud media.

An electronic sports betting system and method includes a betting extension in a browser of a client computer, communicating with an odds modeling engine of a betting platform. The betting platform defines a tournament structure of an electronic sports tournament comprising teams performing the electronic sports tournament on a computer network, and generates a module for each of a number of distinct parts of the tournament structure. The betting platform successively simulates each module to generate a model for the electronic sports tournament, the model representing possible actions and outcomes by the teams performing each of a number of distinct parts of the tournament structure. The betting platform then models team behavior of each of the teams based on the model, and generates odds of the possible actions and outcomes of the electronic sports tournament based on the successive simulation of each module.

A method for providing media content within a media distribution network. The method comprises transforming source media content into an interim format, thereby providing transformed content. Furthermore, the method comprises storing the transformed content on at least one core storage unit. In addition, the method comprises receiving a request for the source media content from a client. The method further comprises encoding the transformed content or intermediate coded content derived therefrom into encoded content suitable for transmission over a core network and/or an edge network, as well as sending the encoded content via the core network and/or the edge network to the client.

A computing system receives a training data set that includes a first subset of labeled events and a second subset of unlabeled events for an event type. The computing system generates an event model configured to detect the event type and classify the event type by actively training the event model. The computing system receives a target game file for a target game. The target game file includes at least tracking data corresponding to players in the target game. The computing system identifies a plurality of instances of the event type in the target game using the event model. The computing system classifies each instance of the plurality of instances of the event type using the event model. The computing system generates an updated event game file based on the target game file and the plurality of instances.

Methods, systems, devices, and computer-program products are described herein for providing dynamic content serving. The dynamic content serving technology can identify, in real-time, programming arriving at a client device, identify a specific media segment being received and/or displayed, and determine which pre-stored substitute media segment may be used to replace the identified segment. A picture-in-picture channel can be used to display the substitute media segment.

The present invention relates to a method for dynamic image content replacement in a video stream comprising generating a set of key image data (K) comprising a sequence of at least two different key images (K1, K2), periodically displaying said set of key image data (K) on a physical display, generating at least a first original video stream (O1) of a scene which includes said physical display by recording said scene with a camera, wherein said at least one video stream (O1) comprises key video frames (FK1, FK2), captures synchronously with displaying each of said at least two different key images (K1, K2) of said set of key image data (K) on said physical display, generating a mask area (MA) corresponding to an active area of said physical display visible in said key video frames from differential images (AFK) obtained from consecutive key video frames (FK1, FK2), generating at least one alternative video stream (V) by inserting of alternative image content (I) into the mask area (MA) of an original video stream, and broadcasting at least said at least one alternative video stream.
