Examples described herein include systems for reconstructing facial image data from partial frame data and landmark data. Systems for generating the partial frame data and landmark data are described. Neural networks may be used to reconstruct the facial image data and/or generate the partial frame data. In this manner, compression of facial image data may be achieved in some examples.

Facial image data generation using partial frame data and landmark data

A method for using a virtual camera location to display image data to one device from another device associated with a plurality of cameras. The method includes receiving image data from a plurality of cameras associated with a second user device associated with a second user. The method further includes establishing a virtual camera location different from positions of the plurality of cameras. The method further includes providing an image using the image data on a first user display of a first user device based at least on a viewpoint of the virtual camera location.

Systems and methods for video communication using a virtual camera

Some listeners or viewers of online music or video may play the music or video repeatedly without actually listening to or watching the music or video, thereby wasting network resources, reducing bandwidths to other users, and slowing down or creating latency for the downloading of music or video by other users who actually listen to or watch the music or video. In some instances, owners of music or video content may encourage their fans to play the music or video repeatedly to increase their popularity ratings or copyright royalties. Inflated plays of music or video may be detected by applying one or more modifications to the music and monitoring for reactions by users, if any, to the modifications. The lack of a reaction by a user may indicate an inflated playback, whereas the presence of a reaction may indicate that the playback is legitimate.

Detection and prevention of inflated plays of audio or video content

A method and system provide, using a microprocessor of computing device associated with a web publisher, content including a web page. The method includes accessing, by the web publisher, a list including at least one extension associated with a web browser rendering the content at a second computing device, and a key generated based on the content, the key being generated at a specific time after the providing. The method includes comparing a value associated with the key to an expected value to determine a difference between the key and the expected value.

System for managing extension modifications to web pages

A system includes a processor configured to execute a web browser in a first browser execution process initiated by an operating system of the system. The system includes a browser extension installed in the web browser, the browser extension including a markup language file and a file specifying at least one type of action related to a page element on which the browser extension seeks to act. The web browser may be configured to receive a set of rules from a web publisher associated with a first web page prior to rendering the first web page, determine based on the file, without loading the browser extension, that the browser extension is configured to implement a first action prohibited by the set of rules, and restrict the browser extension from implementing the first action on the first web page.
