Patent Applications by Snap Inc.
20240378218. OPTIMIZED PRIVATE ID MATCHING BETWEEN ENTITIES_simplified_abstract_(snap inc.)
Inventor(s): Apoorvaa Deshpande of Mountain View CA (US) for snap inc., Bijeeta Pal of New York NY (US) for snap inc., Antonios Papadimitriou of Los Angeles CA (US) for snap inc., Sina Shiehian of Berkeley CA (US) for snap inc.
IPC Code(s): G06F16/28, H04L9/14
CPC Code(s): G06F16/285
Abstract: methods and systems are disclosed for performing private identification matching. the methods and systems store, by a first entity, a first set of private identifiers associated with a first set of data. the methods and systems group, by the first entity, different subsets of the first set of private identifiers into respective buckets of a first plurality of buckets according to a grouping criterion. the methods and systems apply a function to a subset of a second set of data, stored by a second entity, corresponding to private identifiers associated with one or more buckets of a second plurality of buckets, grouped by the second entity, that match private identifiers associated with one or more buckets of the first plurality of buckets. the methods and systems provide, to the first entity, a result of applying the function to the subset of the second set of data.
20240378638. PREDICTING A CONVERSION RATE_simplified_abstract_(snap inc.)
Inventor(s): Weizhi Li of Freemont CA (US) for snap inc., Vineet Abhishek of San Mateo CA (US) for snap inc., Jason Brewer of Mountain View CA (US) for snap inc., Roman Grachev of Burlingame CA (US) for snap inc., Yugi Deng of Bellevue WA (US) for snap inc., David B. Lue of Santa Monica CA (US) for snap inc.
IPC Code(s): G06Q30/0242, G06Q30/0241, G06Q30/0273
CPC Code(s): G06Q30/0246
Abstract: aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a storage medium storing a program and method for predicting a conversion rate. the program and method provide for receiving, from an advertisement service, a bid to display a first advertisement at a computing device; determining, in response to receiving the bid, a set of features that relate to the first advertisement; providing the set of features to a machine learning model configured to output a predicted conversion rate for the first advertisement, the machine learning model having been trained based on multi-task learning using plural sets of features corresponding to plural second advertisements, the plural sets of features being associated with both click-through conversions and view-through conversions; and determining, based on the output of the machine learning model with respect to the set of features, the predicted conversion rate for the first advertisement.
20240378763. DIFFUSION MODEL VIRTUAL TRY-ON EXPERIENCE_simplified_abstract_(snap inc.)
Inventor(s): Avihay Assouline of Tel Aviv (IL) for snap inc., Amir Fruchtman of Holon (IL) for snap inc., Jonathan Heimann of Herzliza (IL) for snap inc., Nir Malbin of Shoham (IL) for snap inc.
IPC Code(s): G06T11/00, G06T7/11
CPC Code(s): G06T11/00
Abstract: methods and systems are disclosed for generating an extended reality (xr) try-on experience based on an image produced by a diffusion model. the system receives a first image depicting a real-world object and receives a second image depicting a target fashion item. the system generates a warped image in which pixels of the target fashion item depicted in the second image replace pixels of a portion of the real-world object in the first image and generates one or more segmentation maps corresponding to incomplete portions of the warped image. the system analyzes the warped image and the one or more segmentation maps using a generative machine learning model to generate an artificial image that populates the incomplete portions of the warped image to depict the real-world object wearing the target fashion item.

IPC Code(s): G06T11/00, G06F16/51, G06N3/04, G06T11/60, G06V10/44, G06V10/82, G06V30/194
CPC Code(s): G06T11/001
Abstract: a method for modifying an image is described. the method involves capturing an image using an image sensor of a device, saving the image in a temporary area in the device's memory, then, upon storing the image in the temporary area, applying a convolutional neural network (cnn)-based stylization to the image in the temporary area as a background process of the device's processors to create a stylized image. this stylized image is then stored as metadata to the original image in the temporary area. upon receiving instructions to display the image in the temporary area on the device, the image and a thumbnail of the stylized image are displayed.

IPC Code(s): G06T15/06, G06T15/00, G06T15/20, G06T15/40
CPC Code(s): G06T15/06
Abstract: the present invention teaches a real-time hybrid ray tracing system for non-planar specular reflections. the high complexity of a non-planar surface is reduced to low complexity of multiple small planar surfaces. advantage is taken of the planar nature of triangles that comprise building blocks of a non-planar surface. all secondary rays bouncing from a given surface triangle toward object triangles keep a close direction to each other. a collective control of secondary rays is enabled by this closeness and by decoupling secondary rays from primary rays. the result is a high coherence of secondary rays.

IPC Code(s): G09G3/36
CPC Code(s): G09G3/3696
Abstract: a system, circuit, and method for implementing a low power common electrode voltage for a display (e.g., lcos display) having transistors with low to moderate breakdown voltages may include a first and a second low voltage amplifier, wherein the first amplifier generates a pixel voltage and the second amplifier generates a predetermined voltage. the circuit may include a common electrode circuit coupled to the first and second amplifier to generate a common electrode voltage. particularly, the circuit may include a control circuit coupled to the common electrode circuit, wherein, during a first phase, the control circuit selectively controls the common electrode circuit to generate a low common electrode voltage based upon a negative value of the predetermined voltage. further, during a second phase, the control circuit selectively controls the common electrode circuit to generate a high common electrode voltage based upon the sum of the predetermined voltage and the pixel voltage.
