High Precision Internet Local Search

Номер: US20120265749A1

Автор: Geoffrey R. Hendrey, Richard F. Poppen

Принадлежит: DeCarta LLC

High-precision local search is performed on the Internet. A map image-rendering software provider embeds spatial keys into maps, which are then provided to producers of Internet content such as map providers. For example, a homeowner may post a message on a web bulletin board advertising his house for sale, and including a map showing the location of the house. When a search engine's web crawler encounters a page having a spatial key embedded in an image, the spatial key is indexed with the other content on the page. Because the spatial key identifies a small geographic area, indexing the content with the spatial key allows search queries to be limited by area and still provide useful results. Thus, a user of a search engine searching for “house for sale” in a specific area will be directed to web pages that meet the geographic and content search terms.

Storage of Arbitrary Points in N-Space and Retrieval of Subset Thereof Based on Criteria Including Maximum Distance to an Arbitrary Reference Point

Номер: US20130339411A1

Автор: Matthew Thomas Bogosian

Принадлежит: Individual

Systems and methods pertaining to nearness calculations of points in n-space. Among the embodiments is associating points of interest with point records in a data store, and efficient retrieval of subsets of those point records which meet arbitrary criteria. Criteria can limit retrieval to neighbors of a reference point (i.e., point records associated with points of interest whose home cells that share at least one interface with another designated home cell. Computationally expensive, at-retrieval range calculations are avoided by performing complimentary calculations at-storage and saving them with related records. The invention is appropriate for use with data storage mechanisms which limit inequality or range operations, or for which such operations result in inefficiencies. When used to model neighboring points on a planetary surface in 3-space, the invention does not suffer from polar distortion (where spherical coordinate systems have difficulty).

Constructing multidimensional histograms for complex spatial geometry objects

Номер: US20140052711A1

Автор: Bhuvan Bamba, Richard J. Anderson, Siva Ravada, Ying Hu

Принадлежит: Oracle International Corp

Techniques are described for generating histograms for a multidimensional space. In the presence of large spatial objects, fuzzy splitting techniques are utilized to recursively divide the multidimensional space into partitions, where a single spatial object may belong to multiple partitions. Large spatial objects are essentially broken down into smaller objects that may allow for more efficient partitioning of the multidimensional space. A count of spatial objects in each partition yields a spatial histogram. A spatial object that belongs to multiple partitions may have a weighted count for each of the multiple partitions, based on the extent to which the spatial object overlaps with each partition. Thus, an object that is split among a handful of partitions will only contribute a fraction of a count to each partition. Small partitions having relatively few objects are avoided by refusing to subdivide a partition whose members drop below a threshold number.

A technique is disclosed for presenting possible cheek-in venues to a mobile device user, such as for the purpose of checking in with social networking services such as Foursquare. The disclosed technique operates by training a model during an initial training sequence. The trained model, representing a teamed hypothesis, describes venues that are ranked according to their relevance to users who are also described by the model. During a subsequent run-time sequence, the system receives real-time geolocation data that represents users, wherein the data includes user geolocation and the level of accuracy of the geolocation. The system generates a set of candidate venues, ranks the generated candidate venues by applying the learned hypothesis, which can be dependent on the level of accuracy, and presents the user with the ranked venues as possible cheek-in venues. The user can then select the venue actually being checked into from the presented check-in venues.

Camera Augmented Reality Based Activity History Tracking

Номер: US20170034433A1

Автор: Adam K. Zajac, Anthony J. Mazzola

Принадлежит: FutureWei Technologies Inc

Augmented reality can be used to display previously captured images on a viewfinder of a camera as the camera's active position nears a position from which the picture was originally taken. A histogram file may associate the original image with positional information of the camera when the image was captured. When the cameras active position nears those coordinates, a transparent version of the digital image is displayed on the viewfinder of the camera. The positional information may include a spatial location of the camera (e.g., GPS coordinates, etc.) as well as an orientation of the camera (e.g., yaw, pitch, roll, etc.). Augmented reality can be used to guide the user to configure/re-configure the camera in order to correct (or avoid) an image quality issue/defect when re-taking a picture.
