Speech Denoising and Dereverberation Using Probabilistic Models
TL;DR: A unified probabilistic framework for denoising and dereverberation of speech signals that is to use a strong speech model that is pre-trained on a large data set of clean speech to get results substantially better than standard methods.

Red-eye detection based on red region detection with eye confirmation
TL;DR: Red-eye detection based on red region detection with eye confirmation initially identifies pixels that correspond to the color of red-eye within an image and a determination is then made as to whether these identified pixels and surrounding areas are part of an eye or not part of the eye as discussed by the authors.

Client-based generation of music playlists via clustering of music similarity vectors
Erin L. Renshaw,John Platt +1 more
TL;DR: The Music Mapper as mentioned in this paper automatically constructs a set coordinate vectors for use in inferring similarity between various pieces of music in particular, given a music similarity graph expressed as links between various artists, albums, songs, etc, the music Mapper applies a recursive embedding process to embed each of the graphs music entries into a multi-dimensional space.

TL;DR: A search engine can be interactively coupled with one or more social networks, and that maps individuals and groups within respective social networks to subsets of categories associated with searches.
Patent
Methods and apparatus for filtering and caching data representing images
TL;DR: In this paper, the alpha values used for the filtering operation (1006) may come from neighbouring pixels (e.g. 932, 934) and the content of a neighbouring character glyph is determined by a glyph cache.
