摘要:
An information processing device includes: a storage unit; a first display control unit; and a demanding unit. The storage unit that stores attribute data representing specified attribute of contents and category data representing a category of the attribute correlated to each other. The first display control unit that provides controls for displaying information for a selected attribute and for displaying, in a categorized state, information for related attributes correlated to the same category as that of the attribute on a correlation display screen. The demanding unit that demands data search by referring to the correlated attribute selected corresponding to information selected from among those displayed on the correlation display screen to an information provision device.

A method of phonetically searching media information comprises receiving a plurality of search queries from one or more client systems and providing a phonetic representation of each search query. One or more search jobs are instantiated, each search job comprising a plurality of tasks, each task being arranged to sequentially read a block from an archive file. The archive file is stored within a distributed filing system (DFS) in which sequential blocks of data comprising the archive file are replicated to be locally available to one or more processors from a cluster of processors for executing the tasks. Each block stores index files corresponding to a plurality of source media files, each index file containing a phonetic stream corresponding to audio information for a given source media file. Each task obtains phonetic representations of outstanding search queries for a block and sequentially searches the block for each outstanding search query.

Techniques are disclosed relating to generating music content. In one embodiment, a method includes determining one or more musical attributes based on external data and generating music content based on the one or more musical attributes. Generating the music content may include selecting from stored sound loops or tracks and/or generating new tracks based on the musical attributes. Selected or generated sound loops or tracks may be layered to generate the music content. Musical attributes may be determined in some embodiments based on user input (e.g., indicating a desired energy level), environment information, and/or user behavior information. Artists may upload tracks, in some embodiments, and be compensated based on usage of their tracks in generating music content. In some embodiments, a method includes generating sound and/or light control information based on the musical attributes.

An audiovisual data reproduction device includes a connection to a central server configured to distribute files to the device. Reception functions associated with a respective type of data are provided to the device The device is configured to: select an available storage area of a specified minimum size, open a reception file on the audiovisual data reproduction device in the selected available storage area, receive each packet of a file sent by the server and write each packet sent to the reception file (with each file including information representative of a type of data associated with the file), and for each file received, search for a respective reception function associated with each received file based on the information representative of the type of data associated with the file. Each reception function is configured to process associated received files and update the device according to the data included therein.
摘要:
A method of associating a content object with metadata uses a combination of a content identifier and a bounding identifier to enable handling of disparate sets of content identifiers for content objects with potentially conflicting content identifiers. The method receives a content identifier for a content object from among a set of content identifiers. It provides a unique bounding identifier for the set of content identifiers. This unique bounding identifier is used in combination with the content identifier to form a globally unique identifier for the content object. This globally unique identifier is associated with a metadata source, which enables routing of a user to the metadata source.

According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a sound characteristic output module configured to analyze audio data in video content data, thereby outputting sound characteristic information indicative of sound characteristics of the audio data. A talk section detection process module detects talk sections in which talks are made by persons, which are included in the video content data, on the basis of the sound characteristic information, and classifies the detected talk sections into a plurality of groups which are associated with different speakers. A display process module displays, on a time bar which is representative of a sequence of the video content data, a plurality of bar areas indicative of positions of the detected talk sections in the sequence of the video content data, in different display modes in association with the groups.

Data storage and access systems enable downloading and paying for data such as audio and video data, text, software, games and other types of data. A portable data carrier has an interface for sending and receiving data, data memory for storing received content data, and payment validation memory for providing payment validation data to an external device. The carrier may also store a record of access made to the stored content, and content use rules for controlling access to the stored content. Embodiments store further access control data and supplementary data such as hot links to web sites and/or advertising data. A complementary data access terminal, data supply computer system, and data access device are also described. The combination of payment data and stored content data and use rule data helps reduce the risk of unauthorized access to data such as compressed music and video data, especially over the Internet.
摘要:
A speech segment is indexed by identifying at least two alternative word sequences for the speech segment. For each word in the alternative sequences, information is placed in an entry for the word in the index. Speech units are eliminated from entries in the index based on a comparison of a probability that the word appears in the speech segment and a threshold value.
