Spatial Image Index And Associated Updating Functionality

US Patent:
2012015, Jun 21, 2012
Filed:
Dec 16, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/969610
Inventors:
Daniel Buchmueller - Seattle WA, US
Michael Kroepfl - Bellevue WA, US
David Z. Nister - Bellevue WA, US
Vadim Cugunovs - Seattle WA, US
Blaise Hilary Aguera-Arcas - Seattle WA, US
Scott V. Fynn - Seattle WA, US
Eyal Ofek - Redmond WA, US
Assignee:
MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06K 9/62
US Classification:
382209
Abstract:
An image matching system is described for finding reference images which match a query image. The image matching system performs this operation in expeditious fashion by restricting the matching to a bounding region; the bounding region, in turn, may be associated with a location at which the query image may have been captured. In addition, the image matching system provides various mechanisms that expedite adding new reference images to an image index, to thereby provide a re-enforced learning mechanism of the image matching system.

Spatial Attribute Ranking Value Index

US Patent:
2012032, Dec 20, 2012
Filed:
Jun 17, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/162930
Inventors:
Daniel Buchmueller - Seattle WA, US
Michael Kroepfl - Bellevue WA, US
Frederik Schaffalitzky - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
707749, 707E17018, 707E17019, 707E1705, 707E17014
Abstract:
A request may be received that includes an indicator associated with a geographic location and scope. A database search may be initiated, based on the geographic location and scope. A list of one or more tags may be received, the tags associated with the geographic location, ordered based on relevance within the geographic scope, based on tag locale rankings associated with each of the tags included in the list of tags, the tag locale rankings based on comparisons of relative frequencies of occurrence of the tags, based on first bounded geographic areas, compared with second relative frequencies of occurrence of the tags based on second bounded geographic areas that are respectively larger than the first bounded geographic areas, the request geographic scope indicating one of a plurality of hierarchical geographic analysis levels associated with a plurality of geographic locations.

Using Photograph To Initiate And Perform Action

US Patent:
2013015, Jun 20, 2013
Filed:
Dec 19, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/329327
Inventors:
Daniel Buchmueller - Seattle WA, US
Amir Akbarzadeh - Oakland CA, US
Michael Kroepfl - Bellevue WA, US
Assignee:
MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382118
Abstract:
Actions, such as adding new connection to a social graph, may be performed through picture taking. In one example, a user takes a picture of one or more people. The face in the picture may be sent to a social network for identification. The social network may use various resources to identify the face, including the social network's picture database and its social graph. When the person in the picture has been identified, the user may indicate an action (e.g., “adding as a friend” in a social network) to be performed with respect to the identified person. The action requested by the user may be then performed with respect to the identified person.
