Method of and a system for ranking members within a services exchange medium

A method of and a system for ranking users by activity level and achievements within the services exchange medium (SEM) enables better searching for a service provider. An activity score for each service provider is periodically determined. The activity score is based on a point scheme. The point scheme, which is tunable, drives particular behaviors within the SEM by rewarding points for a first set of activities and taking away points for a second set of activities. Upon receiving a query, a total score, which is dependent at least in part on the activity score, is calculated. The results list is sorted based on the total score.

System for the augmented assessment of virtual insertion opportunities

A system for the augmented assessment of digital media streams for virtual less than insertion opportunities is disclosed. A digital media stream is automatically decomposed, using a programmed digital processor, into one or more candidate-clips have a predetermined minimum length, and no internal shot transitions. These candidate-clips are then examined, and the ones deemed suitable for virtual insertion use, are classified as viable-clips and stored in a digital database. The artificial intelligence techniques of machine learning and deep learning are then used to further classify the viable-clips according to their virtual insertion related attributes that may be attractive to advertisers, such as scene context, emotional tone and contained characters. A value is then assigned to the viable-clips, dependent on their insertion related attributes, and the overlap of those attributes with client requested requirements.

Apparatus and method for canting a skier

An apparatus and method for canting a skier comprising a cant angle plate that locks on to the heel bearing surface of a ski binding. The cant angle plate has portions of varying thickness for inducing a cant angle when the heel of a boot rests on the cant angle plate locked on to the heel bearing surface of the binding. Thus, the cant angle plate alters the cant angle at which a boot supports a skier's foot and lower leg, relative to the longitudinal running surface or bottom plane of an attached ski.
