摘要： An algorithm for finding regions of interest (ROI) in images and photos based on an information driven approach in which sub-blocks of an image are analyzed for information content or compressibility based on the discrete cosine transform. The sub-blocks of low compressibility are grouped into ROIs using a morphological technique. Unlike other algorithms that are geared for highly specific types of ROI (e.g. face detection), the method of the present invention is generally applicable to arbitrary images and photos. A center-weighted variation of the algorithm can produce better results for certain photo applications. The algorithm can be used with several other image applications, including Stained-Glass collages and Pan-and-Scan presentations.

摘要： In one embodiment, the present invention extracts video regions of interest from one or more videos and generates a highly condensed visual summary of the videos. The video regions of interest are extracted based on to energy, movement, face or other object detection methods, associated data or external input, or some other feature of the video. In another embodiment, the present invention extracts regions of interest from images and generates highly condensed visual summaries of the images. The highly condensed visual summary is generated by laying out germs on a canvas and then filling the spaces between the germs. The result is a visual summary that resembles a stained glass window having cells of varying shape. The germs may be laid out by temporal order, color histogram, similarity, according to a desired pattern, size, or some other manner. The people, objects and other visual content in the germs appear larger and become easier to see. The visual summary of the present invention utilizes important regions within the key frames, leading to more condensed summaries that are well suitable for small screens.

摘要： A method for creating multimedia meeting minutes is disclosed. In an embodiment, the method receives notations from a user. As each notation is received, context information is recorded with the notation. The context information is used to select pertinent portions of multimedia information received concurrently with the notations. An association is then created between the notation and each selected portion of the multimedia information. These associations may be used to access the selected portions of the multimedia information from the notations. The notations and their respective associations are deposited for future retrieval. The deposited notations may be revised by receiving an altered copy of the notations from a user. The deposited notations are modified in accordance with the altered copy.

摘要： A heuristically derived unsuitability score is computed and used as an input for metaphorical springs in which each selected video segment from recorded video of a video camera is associated with a metaphorical spring that maintains the selected segment at an optimal length while being responsive to a global system spring whose spring strength determines a final length of a final edited output video. Accordingly, user-specified changes to the final length of the final output video automatically lengthen or shorten the lengths of individual segments in such a way that high quality video segments having low unsuitability scores are emphasized over low quality video segments having high unsuitability scores.

摘要： A system for automatically generating indexes for handwritten notes captured as digital ink in a computer is disclosed. Ink words are identified, and features of the ink words are computed. Pairwise distances or match scores, which measure the distance in the features between two ink words, are calculated. A clustering technique selects equivalence classes of ink words. Index terms, which are non-uniform through-out the notes, are selected from the equivalence classes of ink words. The system generates an index from the index terms, including displaying pages numbers where the index terms are located in the notes as well as hyper-linking the index terms. A technique to identify a threshold for use in clustering the ink words is also disclosed.

摘要： Domain objects for use in a freeform graphics system. Domain objects are context specific representations of information that are used in a freeform graphics system. Domain objects are represented in a freeform graphics system by a graphic object (icon) representing an instance of the domain object. The icon representing a domain object may be manipulated like any other graphic object. Domain objects are defined by a domain object class which define attributes, a set of action rules and layouts. The attributes describe the information or data associated with the domain object. The set of action rules map user actions and system events to operations that may be performed on the domain object. The layouts define how domain object information is displayed as an icon.

摘要： The spatial separations between clusters of objects on the electronic work surface are analyzed to automatically generate borders, which may be used in at least two manners. The borders may become explicit editable borders within an output image. Alternatively, the borders created may be implicit ephemeral borders. According to an aspect, a method uses the sufficient stability grouping technique to determine grouping of elements in the input image array into the text lines in the output text lines array. According to another aspect, a method uses the sufficient stability grouping technique to determine the amount of vertical expansion to apply to each text line so as to create text regions in the output array which correspond to the text lines in the input text lines array. According to yet another aspect, a method takes the text regions array as input and extracts enclosure borders from the text regions. The method according to this aspect applies distance thresholding and edge labeling based upon the contents of the text lines array. According to still another aspect, a method extracts structured borders from the text regions array. The method according to this aspect applies two-dimensional projection operations based upon the contents of the text lines array. According to yet still another aspect, a method extracts freeform linear borders from the text regions array. The freeform linear borders result from a Voronoi tesselation performed upon the contents of text regions array.

摘要： A system for creating and manipulating groups of graphic objects using enclosures. A persistent graphic object, such as a closed loop is drawn around a set of graphic objects as an enclosure. When the enclosure is selected the enclosure and the set of graphic objects within are grouped. Besides moving graphic objects into and out of the enclosure, the contents of a group can then be modified by 1) graphically altering the enclosure loop to include or remove graphic objects, 2) fusing groups by moving one of them so that their enclosure loops overlap (i.e., they "fuse" into one), 3) fusing groups through gestures which "touch" enclosure loops of the groups to be fused or 4) splitting the group into multiple groups through a splitting gesture.
