Abstract:
Audience segmentation can be based on a viewing angle of a user viewing a video of a multi-angle viewing environment. During playback, a sequence of the user-controlled viewing angles of the video are recorded. The sequence represents the viewing angle of the user at a given point in time. Based on the sequences of several users, a predominant sequence of viewing angles of the video is determined. One or more audience segment tags are assigned to the predominant sequence of viewing angles. During subsequent playbacks of the video, the sequence(s) of user-controlled viewing angles of the video are recorded. The recorded sequence(s) of the subsequent user(s) are compared to the predominant sequence of viewing angles of the video, and the subsequent user(s) are assigned to an audience segment based on the comparison and the corresponding audience segment tags.
Abstract:
Replacing content of a surface in video is described. In one or more embodiments, a surface captured in a scene of video content is replaced with replacement content. As part of doing so, an indication of the surface to be replaced is received. The indication may be received as user input to select the surface for replacement from a frame of video content or as a pattern that can be used to search for the surface in frames of the video content. Once the surface is identified, it is tracked throughout the video content using motion tracking techniques. The motion tracking identifies frames of the video content that include the identified surface as well as locations of surface in the identified frames. Based on the identified frames and locations, the replacement content is incorporated into the video content to replace the surface.

Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed towards systems and methods for adjusting impression inventory within overlapping packages and based on impression inventory reservations. The systems and methods receive attributes of a first package and a second package to create impression inventories for the first package and the second package. Additionally, the systems and methods determine overlap between the impression inventory of the first package and the impression inventory of the second package. Moreover, upon receiving an inventory reservation request, the systems and methods adjust, based on the reservation request, the impression inventories of both the first package and the second package.
Abstract:
Embodiments are disclosed that provide dynamic creative optimization for video advertisements. In certain embodiments, a content creation system receives a request for a video advertisement from a remote computing system. The request represents attributes of a specific recipient. To generate the video advertisement, the content creation system accesses a collection of assets, such as templates and video elements, from which video content can be generated. The content creation system selects a subset of assets from the collection and combines some or all of the selected subset of assets into a composite content file. The content creation system generates (or causes another system to generate) the requested electronic video advertisement or other video content from the composite content file. The content creation system provides the generated video advertisement or other video content in response to the request that was received from the remote computing system.
Abstract:
A computer implemented method and apparatus for determining brand awareness before dismissing a video advertisement. The method comprises receiving video content, advertising content, and a test question, wherein the test question tests brand awareness of a viewer of the advertising content; playing the advertising content; presenting the test question; stopping the advertising content when an input is received that correctly answers the test question; and playing the video content.
