20100274777 | Method and System for Processing a Variable Click Domain Display - Methods and systems for displaying at least one web site or promotion to a user (consumer) responsive to the user's query, on the user's browser, provide a display, that is for example, bifurcated, for the selected results web sites. A first, and typically larger portion of the display, takes up the balance of the display area, and is reserved for review and browsing of an operable web site, corresponding to the web site or promotion either initially displayed or most recently selected in the navigation area (navigation) of the computer screen, monitor or other display. A second portion of the display shows another portion of the navigation area (navigation) permitting the consumer to browse additional web sites or promotional options selected by the system server and/or computer. | 10-28-2010 |
20140046756 | GENERATIVE MODEL FOR RELATED SEARCHES AND ADVERTISING KEYWORDS - Methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for extracting n-grams from a plurality of offers. Each offer includes a title and price. The n-grams are filtered by bid data and phrase. For each of the remaining n-gram, the plurality of offers are searched to provide offer search results. The n-grams are filtered by offers based upon the offer search results, and the filtered n-grams are provided. The filtered n-grams can be used as search hints, related searches, or advertising keywords. | 02-13-2014 |
20140100969 | BUCKETIZED AUCTION FOR ONLINE OFFERS - Methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for computing a displayable size for a device, a default visible area for the device, and a number of pages of content based upon historical device click-through data and pagination data. A size of an advertising candidate set is determined. The advertising candidate set, containing one or more advertisements, is determined based in part upon a query. The advertising candidate set is categorized into two or more buckets. The advertisements within each bucket are ranked. Selected advertisements based upon the ranked advertisements to send to the device are determined. | 04-10-2014 |

20150062351 | Device and Method for Calibrating a Temporal Contrast Sensor with a Frame-Based Camera Sensor - A device and method incorporates features of a temporal contrast sensor with a camera sensor in an imager. The method includes registering the camera sensor with the temporal contrast sensor as a function of a calibration target. The method includes receiving camera sensor data from the camera sensor and temporal contrast sensor data from the temporal contrast sensor. The method includes generating a plurality of images as a function of incorporating the temporal contrast sensor data with the camera sensor data. | 03-05-2015 |
20150070346 | Method and System for Rendering Virtual Views - A method including receiving a first image of a scene captured from a first perspective, the first image including an object and a background; segmenting the first image to extract a first two-dimensional contour of the object; approximating a plurality of three-dimensional locations of a plurality of points on the first contour; generating a three-dimensional billboard of the object based on the three-dimensional locations; and projecting the first image onto the three-dimensional billboard. | 03-12-2015 |
20150135212 | Method and System for Providing and Displaying Optional Overlays - A method including receiving video of an event; generating an overlay for the video; generating an information message containing information enabling a receiver of the video and the overlay to selectively display or hide the overlay; and transmitting the video, the overlay, and the information message. The video is transmitted in a primary stream of a multi-stream transmission including a primary stream and one or more auxiliary streams. The overlay is transmitted in a first one of the auxiliary streams. | 05-14-2015 |
20160028950 | Panoramic Video from Unstructured Camera Arrays with Globally Consistent Parallax Removal - Systems and methods for generating a panoramic video from unstructured camera arrays. The systems and methods are configured to statically align corresponding image-frames of respective input video streams, warp the aligned image-frames according to a warping-order, and relax the warped image-frames thereby generating a temporally coherent panoramic video. Methods according to embodiments this invention utilize a new parallax-warping-error metric that is devised to capture structural differences created by parallax artifacts. The parallax-warping-error metric is effective in finding an optimal warping-order and in driving the warping process, resulting in a panoramic video with minimal parallax artifacts. | 01-28-2016 |
20160057488 | Method and System for Providing and Displaying Optional Overlays - A method including receiving video of an event; generating an overlay for the video; generating an information message containing information enabling a receiver of the video and the overlay to selectively display or hide the overlay; and transmitting the video, the overlay, and the information message. The video is transmitted in a primary stream of a multi-stream transmission including a primary stream and one or more auxiliary streams. The overlay is transmitted in a first one of the auxiliary streams. | 02-25-2016 |
