Location based image classification with map segmentation
TLDR
In this article, the provided capture records are clustered into groups based on capture locations and a map is segmented into a plurality of regions based on relative positions of the capture locations associated with each group.Abstract:
In methods and systems for classifying capture records, such as images. A collection of capture records is provided. Each capture record has metadata defining a map location. This metadata can be earlier determined from a stream of data transmissions, even if there are gaps in transmission. The provided capture records are clustered into groups based on capture locations. A map, inclusive of the capture locations, is segmented into a plurality of regions based on relative positions of the capture locations associated with each group. The regions are associated with the capture records of respective groups.read more

System And Methods For Creation And Use Of A Mixed Media Environment
TL;DR: In this article, a Mixed Media Reality (MMR) system and associated techniques are described, which provides mechanisms for forming a mixed media document that includes media of at least two types, such as printed paper as a first medium and a digital photograph, digital movie, digital audio file or web link as a second medium.
Patent
Semantic annotations for virtual objects
TL;DR: In this paper, a user can take virtual photographs of the virtual objects, where the semantic annotations associated with the objects visible in the virtual photographs are stored with the virtual photograph, or in a virtual world in real-time, wherein the computer-controlled character is enabled to respond to the query by combining the semantic annotation associated with a virtual object in virtual photograph with additional semantic annotations tagged to the computer controlled character or a context of the real world to dynamically provide a semantic output.
