• Data Privacy Day 2021 : Five ways to embrace privacy into your business

  27 janvier 2021, par Matomo Core Team — Community, Privacy

  Welcome to Data Privacy Day 2021 !

  This year we are excited to announce that we are participating as a #PrivacyAware Champion for DPD21 through the National Cyber Security Alliance. This means that on this significant day we are in partnership with hundreds of other organisations and businesses to share a unified message that empowers individuals to “Own Your Privacy” and for organisations to “Respect Privacy.”

  "Last year dawned a new era in the way many businesses operate from a traditional office work setting to a remote working from home environment for employees. This now means it’s more important than ever for your employees to understand how to take ownership of their privacy when working online."

  As a Data Privacy Day #PrivacyAware Champion we would like to provide some practical tips and share examples of how the Matomo team helps employees be privacy aware.

  

  Five ways to embrace privacy into your business

  1. Create a privacy aware culture within your business

  • Get leadership involved.
  • Appoint privacy ambassadors within your team. 
  • Create a privacy awareness campaign where you educate employees on your company privacy policy. 
  • Share messages about privacy around the office/or in meetings online, on internal message boards, in company newsletters, or emails. 
  • Teach new employees their role in your privacy culture and reinforce throughout their career.

  2. Organise privacy awareness training for your employees

  • Invite outside speakers to talk to employees about why privacy matters. 
  • Engage staff by asking them to consider how privacy and data security applies to the work they do on a daily basis.
  • Encourage employees to complete online courses to gain a better understanding of how to avoid privacy risks.

  3. Help employees manage their individual privacy

  • Better security and privacy behaviours at home will translate to better security and privacy practices at work. 
  • Teach employees how to update their privacy and security settings on personal accounts.
  • Use NCSA’s privacy settings page to help them get started

  4. Add privacy to the employee’s toolbox

  • Give your employees actual tools they can use to improve their privacy, such as company-branded camera covers or privacy screens for their devices, or virtual private networks (VPNs) to secure their connections.

  5. Join Matomo and we’ll be your web analytics experts

  • At Matomo, ensuring our users and customers that their privacy is protected is not only a core component of the work we do, it’s why we do what we do ! Find out how.

• Google Speech API - Is there a way to determine if the audio has human voice or not ?

  20 décembre 2019, par stupid_sma

  I am making an audio filtering application at work that reads over hundreds of audio files and filters them. So, if the audio has human voice in it, it will accept it and if it does not- it will delete the audio file.

  I am using ffmpeg to get the details of the audio and add other filters like size and duration and silence (though it is not very accurate in detecting silence for all audio files.)

  My company asked me to try the Google Cloud Speech API to detect if the audio has any human voice in it.

  So with this code, some audio files return a Transcript of spoken words in the audio file, but what I need is to determine if a human is speaking or not.

  I have considered using hark.js for it but there does not seem to be enough documentation and I am short on time !

  Ps. I am an intern and I’m just starting out with programming. I apologize if my question does not make sense or sounds dumb.

• Availability of WebM (VP8) Video Hardware IP Designs

  10 janvier 2011, par noreply@blogger.com (John Luther)

  Hello from the frigid city of Oulu, in the far north of Finland. Our WebM hardware development team, formerly part of On2 Technologies, is now up-to-speed and working hard on a number of video efforts for WebM.
  

  • VP8 (the video codec used in WebM) hardware decoder IP is available from Google for semiconductor companies who want to support high-quality WebM playback in their chipsets.
  • The Oulu team will release the first VP8 video hardware encoder IP in the first quarter of 2011. We have the IP running in an FPGA environment, and rigorous testing is underway. Once all features have been tested and implemented, the encoder will be launched as well.

  WebM video hardware IPs are implemented and delivered as RTL (VHDL/Verilog) source code, which is a register-level hardware description language for creating digital circuit designs. The code is based on the Hantro brand video IP from On2, which has been successfully deployed by numerous chipset companies around the world. Our designs support VP8 up to 1080p resolution and can run 30 or 60fps, depending on the foundry process and hardware clock frequency.

  The WebM/VP8 hardware decoder implementation has already been licensed to over twenty partners and is proven in silicon. We expect the first commercial chips to integrate our VP8 decoder IP to be available in the first quarter of 2011. For example, Chinese semiconductor maker Rockchip last week demonstrated full WebM hardware playback on their new RK29xx series processor at CES in Las Vegas (video below).
  

  
  Note : To view the video in WebM format, ensure that you’ve enrolled in the YouTube HTML5 trial and are using a WebM-compatible browser. You can also view the video on YouTube.

  Hardware implementations of the VP8 encoder also bring exciting possibilities for WebM in portable devices. Not only can hardware-accelerated devices play high-quality WebM content, but hardware encoding also enables high-resolution, real-time video communications apps on the same devices. For example, when VP8 video encoding is fully off-loaded to a hardware accelerator, you can run 720p or even 1080p video conferencing at full framerate on a portable device with minimal battery use.

  The WebM hardware video IP team will be focusing on further developing the VP8 hardware designs while also helping our semiconductor partners to implement WebM video compression in their chipsets. If you have any questions, please visit our Hardware page.

  Happy New Year to the WebM community !
