126 | Researchers at the University of Turin in Italy and Yahoo Labs in Barcelona have created an algorithm that recognizes beauty in photographs. They're able to crawl Flickr and find amazing photographs that nobody has really noticed. First, they get people to rate pictures on a scale of one to five for specific categories of photograph. Then, the researchers use this information to train a machine vision system they call CrowdBeauty. Once trained, they turn it loose on Flickr to find all the pretty pictures. * * * | http://arxiv.org/abs/1505.03358 | http://www.technologyreview.com/view/537741/computational-aesthetics-algorithm-spots-beauty-that-humans-overlook/ | |||

138 | A three-year-old Google patent has surfaced for a teddy bear that controls home automation. You talk to it, and the bear sends commands to your home automation products. The patent specifically is for disturbing technology that enables the teddy bear to turn it's head and make eye contact with whoever is talking to it. Even more unsettling is that the patent was filed in 2012 -- the same year the Seth McFarlane movie, Ted, came out. Coincidence? I think not! | https://youtu.be/9fbo_pQvU7M?t=33s | ||||
