US 10,652,619 B1 · Systems and methods for providing media asset recommendations

Abstract

Methods and systems for providing media asset recommendations are described. An input to a user interface requesting content associated with a media asset is detected without corresponding display of the media asset on a display device associated with the user interface. In response, a user interaction history comprising interaction data associated with the media asset is retrieved. The interaction data is analyzed to identify an indecision pattern. In response to detecting the indecision pattern, a plurality of people are identified based on a match between the media asset and media profile information of the people. An electronic query is transmitted to each of the people requesting a recommendation for the media asset. The received responses are generated for display for the user.

Dependent claims

A method for providing media asset recommendations to a user, the method comprising:

detecting an input to a user interface requesting content associated with a media asset, wherein the input is detected while the media asset is not displayed on a display device associated with the user interface;
in response to the detecting, retrieving a user interaction history comprising interaction data associated with the media asset;
detecting, based on the user interaction history, an indecision pattern;
in response to detecting the indecision pattern:
selecting recipients of electronic queries based on a match between the media asset and media profile information of the recipients;
transmitting the electronic queries to the recipients, each electronic query requesting a recommendation for the media asset;
receiving responses to the electronic queries from the recipients;
and
generating for display a recommendation for the media asset based on the received responses.

6 more elements

A system for providing media asset recommendations to a user, the system comprising:

control circuitry configured to:
detect an input to a user interface requesting content associated with a media asset, wherein the input is detected while the media asset is not displayed on a display device associated with the user interface;
in response to the detecting, retrieve a user interaction history comprising interaction data associated with the media asset;
detect, from the user interaction history, an indecision pattern;
in response to detecting the indecision pattern:
select recipients of electronic queries based on a match between the media asset and media profile information of the recipients;
transmit the electronic queries to the recipients, each electronic query requesting a recommendation for the media asset;
receive responses to the electronic queries from the recipients;
and
generate for display a recommendation for the media asset based on the received responses.
