Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to adjust device control information. The example apparatus comprises a light drive waveform generator to obtain metadata corresponding to media and generate device control information based on the metadata, the device control information to inform a lighting device to enable consecutive light pulses; an effect engine to apply an attack parameter and a decay parameter to consecutive light pulses corresponding to the device control information, the attack parameter and the decay parameter based on the metadata to affect a shape of the consecutive light pulses; and a color timeline generator to generate color information based on the metadata, the color information to inform the lighting device to change a color state.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to identify media based on historical data. An example method includes: comparing (a) a pitch shifted fingerprint, (b) a time shifted fingerprint, or (c) a resampled fingerprint to a reference fingerprint; in response to a match between any of (a) the pitch shifted fingerprint, (b) the time shifted fingerprint, or (c) the resampled fingerprint and the reference fingerprint, generating indications of (a) a pitch shift value, (b) a time shift value, or (c) a resample ratio that caused the match; in response to collecting broadcast media for a threshold period of time, processing the one or more indications; and in response to a request for a recommendation for information associated with a query, transmitting the recommendation including one or more frequencies of occurrence of (a) the pitch shift value, (b) the time shift value, or (c) the resample ratio.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to adjust audio playback settings based on analysis of audio characteristics. Example apparatus disclosed herein include an equalization (EQ) model query generator to generate a query to a neural network, the query including a representation of a sample of an audio signal; an EQ filter settings analyzer to: access a plurality of audio playback settings determined by the neural network based on the query; and determine a filter coefficient to apply to the audio signal based on the plurality of audio playback settings; and an EQ adjustment implementer to apply the filter coefficient to the audio signal in a first duration.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus and systems are disclosed to generate light control information. An example apparatus comprises a beat tracking network to determine a length of time between a first media onset and a second media onset, a light drive waveform generator to compare the length of time to a time threshold, the time threshold corresponding to a desired time between consecutive light pulses, when the time threshold is not satisfied, increase the length of time, the increased length of time corresponding to light pulse spacing, and generate light control information based on the light pulse spacing, the light control information to cause the consecutive light pulses, and an effect engine to generate intensity information based on a first amplitude of the first media onset and a second amplitude of the second media onset, an amplitude of the consecutive light pulses corresponding to the intensity information.
