Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer-readable media to represent, store, and manipulate metadata. The method for representing metadata includes defining a map to metadata stored in a global database for each of a plurality of metadata containers, receiving a query for metadata associated with a file, determining which of the plurality of metadata containers the query requires, and responding to the query based on metadata associated with the file from the global database retrieved using the corresponding map for the determined metadata container. The method for storing metadata includes defining a map for metadata to be stored in a global database for each of a plurality of metadata containers, receiving information to be entered as metadata associated with a file, determining which of the plurality of metadata containers is compatible with the received information, and storing the information in the global database associated with the respective file using the corresponding map for the determined metadata container. Other methods relate to manipulating the metadata.

Systems and methods for monitoring labelers of speech data. To test or train labelers, a labeler is presented with utterances that have already been identified as belonging to a particular class or call type. The labeler is asked to assign a call type to the utterances. The performance of the labeler is measured by comparing the call types assigned by the labeler with the existing call types of the utterances. The performance of a labeler can also be monitored as the labeler labels speech data by occasionally having the labeler label an utterance that is already labeled and by storing the results.

A compressed rendition of a video program is provided in a format suitable for electronic searching and retrieval. An electronic pictorial transcript representation of the video program is initially received. The video program has a video component and a second information-bearing media component associated therewith. The pictorial transcript representation includes a representative frame from each segment of the video component of the video program and a portion of the second media component associated with the segment. The electronic pictorial transcript is transformed into a hypertext format to form a hypertext pictorial transcript. The hypertext pictorial transcript is subsequently recorded in an electronic medium.

A method includes steps of indexing a media collection, searching an indexed library and browsing a set of candidate program segments. The step of indexing a media collection creates the indexed library based on a content of the media collection. The step of searching the indexed library identifies the set of candidate program segments based on a search criteria. The step of browsing the set of candidate program segments selects a segment for viewing.
摘要:
A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a server having a controller to monitor for media content from a first source that is distributable where the media content is adjusted for distribution to a plurality of communication devices that are associated with a user and a portion of the plurality of communication devices use different communication protocols from another portion of the plurality of communication devices, obtain content metadata from the media content, receive a request for information associated with the media content from a first communication device of the plurality of communication devices of the user, compile the information from the content metadata based at least in part on a user profile associated with the user, and transmit the information to the first communication device. Other embodiments are disclosed.

A system and method is provided to automatically generate content for ITV products and services by processing primary media sources. In one embodiment of the invention, keywords are automatically extracted from the primary media sources using one or more of a variety of techniques directed to video, audio and/or textual content of the multimodal source. In some embodiments, keywords are then processed according to one or more disclosed algorithms to narrow the quantity of downstream processing that is necessary to associate secondary sources (reference items) with the primary video source. Embodiments of the invention also provide automatic searching methods for the identification of reference items based on the processed keywords in order to maximize the value added by the association of reference items to the video source.
摘要:
A portable communication device has a touch screen display that receives tactile input and a microphone that receives audio input. The portable communication device initiates a query for media based at least in part on tactile input and audio input. The touch screen display is a multi-touch screen. The portable communication device sends an initiated query and receives a text response indicative of a speech to text conversion of the query. The portable communication device then displays video in response to tactile input and audio input.
摘要:
A system and method are provided for content-based non-linear control of video data playback. A multimedia database having multimedia data including multimedia content data is searched based on a user query to determine a first set of multimedia data. The multimedia data includes indexes to and condensed representations of corresponding video data stored in a video database. A portion of the first set of multimedia data is displayed at a control device in response to the user query. A user of the control device selects an element of the first set of multimedia data for video playback and video data corresponding to the element delivered to a video device for playback. A user of the control device selects an element of the first set of multimedia data for additional information and a second set of multimedia data corresponding to the element delivered to the control device.
