A method for enhancing a presentation of a network document by a client terminal with real time social media content. The method comprises analyzing a content in a web document to identify a relation to a first of a plurality of multi participant events documented in an event dataset, each of the plurality of multi participant events is held in a geographical venue which hosts an audience of a plurality of participants, matching a plurality of event indicating tags of each of a plurality of user uploaded media content files with at least one feature of the first multi participant event to identify a group of user uploaded media content files selected from the plurality of user uploaded media content files, and forwarding at least some members of the group to a simultaneous presentation on a browser running on a client terminal and presenting the web document.

Web document enhancement

There is provided a method for creating a presentation based on grouping of social media content, comprising: receiving a trend represented by at least one term; sending first requests to social network servers, each request including the at least one term; aggregating first user uploaded media content items received from the social network servers in response to the requests; extracting terms from the aggregated user uploaded media content items; associating at least some of the extracted terms with the trend; sending second requests to the social network servers, each request including the at least some of the extracted terms associated with the trend; aggregating second user uploaded media content items received from the social network servers in response to the second requests; and forwarding at least some members of the aggregated second user uploaded media content items to a presentation on a client terminal.

Automatic article enrichment by social media trends

A system and method is provided for improving sensor precision. In a training phase, a relatively low precision sensor system and a relatively high precision sensor system may record relatively low precision and relatively high precision training motion signals respectively of substantially the same training scene. Machine learning may be performed to generate a transformation mapping information from the relatively low precision training motion signal to the relatively high precision training motion signal. In a run-time phase, a run-time sensor system having a precision significantly less than the precision of the relatively high precision sensor system, may record run-time motion signals of a run-time scene. The run-time motion signal may be transformed using the transformation to generate a transformed run-time motion signal with a precision significantly greater than the precision of the run-time sensor system.

Dual-precision sensor system using high-precision sensor data to train low-precision sensor data for object localization in a virtual environment

A device, system and method is provided for estimating movement based on a human movement model in a virtual, augmented or mixed reality environment. In an offline phase, a human movement model may be stored that assigns a non-uniform probability of spatiotemporal representations of movements that occur in a human body. In an online phase, a user's movements may be recorded. The user's movements may be estimated by spatiotemporal representations of a plurality of (N) degrees of freedom (DOF) that maximize a joint probability comprising a first probability that the measured movements match the estimated movements and a second probability that the human movement model assigns to the spatiotemporal representations of the estimated movements. A virtual, augmented or mixed reality image may be displayed that is rendered based on the NDOF spatiotemporal representations of the estimated movements.

The present invention may include acquiring a plurality of reference measurement images from a plurality of reference overlay target sites of a wafer via a reference image sampling process, wherein the reference image sampling process includes acquiring one or more images at each of a plurality of reference overlay target sites of the at least one wafer, generating a reference image by combining the plurality of reference measurement images acquired from the plurality of reference overlay target sites of the wafer of the reference image sampling process; acquiring one or more measurement images from an overlay target site of the wafer via a measurement image sampling process and measuring a virtual overlay of the one or more measurement images by comparing the one or more measurement images acquired from the overlay target site of the wafer to the generated reference image.

Method and system for reference-based overlay measurement

A method for identifying within a working image of a scene a point of interest designated within a designation image of a scene, the designation image being taken along a first viewing direction and the working image being taken along a second viewing direction, the second viewing direction being significantly non-parallel to the first viewing direction, the method comprising the steps of: obtaining a designation image of the scene; obtaining a working image of the scene; correlating said designation image and said working image with each other, directly or by correlating each of said designation image and said working image with a common reference image, so as to derive an interrelation between said designation image and said working image; and employing said interrelation between said designation image and said working image to derive a location within said working image of a point of interest designated within said designation image, characterized in that the method further comprises: obtaining a secondary designation image taken along a viewing direction displaced from, but similar to, the first viewing direction; and co-processing said designation image and said secondary designation image to derive range information relating to a plurality of pixels in said designation image, thereby defining a partial relative three-dimensional model of a portion of the scene relative to the viewing direction of said designation image, wherein said partial relative three-dimensional model is used in said step of correlating.

Methods for transferring points of interest between images with non-parallel viewing directions

The invention is a method for converting a monoscopic video movie passively acquired using a single camera to a stereoscopic video movie. The method comprises generating stereoscopic pairs comprising, for each frame in the original sequence, a transformed original frame selected from the monoscopic video movie and a transformed alternate frame. The transformed frames are generated from the original and the alternate frame.

Automatic conversion from monoscopic video to stereoscopic video

The invention provides a method for producing a series of stereoscopic pairs of images that can be displayed one after the other as a stereoscopic movie. The sequence of stereoscopic pairs is derived from a sequence of consecutive images of a scene that is obtained by standard techniques using standard equipment. A first image of a pair of images comprising the right and left images of each frame of the stereoscopic series of images is selected from the original sequence of images. Its stereo partner is either selected from the original sequence and/or is generated by transforming images selected from the original sequence of images.
