摘要： A web-based or downloadable software and hardware system and method for their use, that act together to generate creative content, such as for broadcast media distribution and wherein that system can incorporate one or more selectable machine generated broadcast personalities, including interactive personalities, and ones that can have a conversation with each other. More specifically, the present invention relates to a fully integrated cloud-based broadcast system which has the ability to address and interact with external sources, including for example, news, music, sports, social media, advertising, and live audience participation. This broadcast personality can be customized to include selected attributes and can include the ability to react iteratively to content, including on-air and in real-time. Moreover, the system is designed to provide safety protocols which include audio fingerprinting which the system uses for authentication and verification of the audio files in an aspect of the invention.

摘要： Methods and apparatus to generate audience measurement data from population sample data having incomplete demographic classifications are disclosed. An example method includes detecting that a number of impressions a time segment of a video occurred based on messages; detecting that no impressions for the time segment of the video were detected by the database proprietor; determining respective percentages of exposures of the video that are attributable to corresponding ones of multiple demographic groups, determining the respective percentages being based on the first demographic information provided by the database proprietor for exposures of other time segments of the video; attributing respective portions of the number of impressions to the demographic groups based on the respective percentages to determine imputed numbers of impressions; generating adjusted numbers of impressions based on the imputed numbers of impressions; and determining ratings information for the video using the adjusted numbers of impressions.

摘要： Techniques for use in determining redress measures for a television (TV) service outage based on impact analysis are described. A TV service outage may be associated with a TV system apparatus including a TV user interface (UI). In one illustrative example, one or more subscribers impacted by the TV service outage are determined. An impact score is determined for each one of the subscribers. A redress measure for each one of the subscribers is then determined in accordance with their corresponding impact scores. An impacted subscriber and/or an impact score may be determined based at least in part on subscriber TV usage data or subscriber TV UI usage data.

摘要： A server system accesses a listening history of a user of the media-providing service, where the user is in a demographic group. For each track of a plurality of tracks in the listening history of the user, the server system calculates a first metric based at least in part on an affinity of members of the demographic group, as compared to members of other demographic groups, for the track. The server system selects content for the user based on the first metric and provides the selected content to a client device associated with the user.

摘要： Image data relating to real-world objects or persons is collected from a scene while collecting audio data relating to the real-world objects or persons from the same scene. The audio data is used to derive sound objects corresponding to the real-world objects or persons. The image data is used to derive video objects corresponding to the real-world objects or persons. Based on the sound objects and the video objects, candidate salient objects are generated. A salient object is selected from among the candidate salient objects. Perceptual enhancement operations are performed on the selected salient object.

摘要： A system and method for determining a potential match candidate based on a social linking graph. The method includes: analyzing at least one multimedia content element (MMCE) to identify a first entity and a second entity in each MMCE, where the first entity is among a plurality of entities indicated by a social pattern associated with a third entity, wherein the first entity and the second entity in each MMCE are identified by generating at least one signature based on the MMCE and matching the generated at least one signature to signatures of a plurality of concepts, wherein each concept is a collection of signatures representing an entity and metadata describing the entity; and identifying the second entity as a potential match candidate for the third entity, wherein the second entity is not associated with the social pattern.

摘要： Systems, methods, devices, and computer program products provide social and interactive applications for mass media based on real time ambient-audio and/or video identification. In some implementations, a method includes: receiving descriptors identifying ambient audio associated with a media broadcast; comparing the descriptors to one or more reference descriptors; and determining a rating for the media broadcast based at least in part on the results of the comparison.

摘要： Determining effect of changes in parameters may include, during a time interval, rotating from setting a first parameter to a first value for a first time period, to setting the first parameter to a second value for a second time period such that the time interval includes multiple first time periods with the first parameter set to the first value sequenced with multiple second time periods with the first parameter set to the second value; obtaining, for the time interval, a first set of ratings corresponding to the first time periods and a second set of ratings corresponding to the second time periods; averaging, for the time interval, the first set of ratings to a first average rating and the second set of ratings to a second average rating; and correlating the first average rating to the first value and the second average rating to the second value.
