Abstract
Methods and systems for filtering video content items are described herein. The system identifies a plurality of video content items that are linked to respective image content items. The system determines, for each of the plurality of video content items, whether a video content item corresponds to a respective image content item. In response to the determining, the system causes to be provided information identifying the plurality of video content items excluding video content items that do not correspond to respective image content items.
Claims14
A computer-implemented method for filtering video content items comprising:
- in response to a request for video content items matching at least one criterion, identifying, using the control circuitry, a plurality of video content items that are linked to respective thumbnails;
- determining, using the control circuitry, for each of the plurality of video content items, whether a video content item is potentially legitimate or potentially clickbait based on a comparison with a respective thumbnail, the determining for each of the plurality of video content items whether the video content item is potentially legitimate or potentially clickbait comprising:
- (i) determining whether the video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict a particular subject,
- (ii) determining whether the respective thumbnail comprises at least a portion of any frame of the video content item, and
- (iii) determining whether the video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict related subject matter;
- in response to the determining, for each of the plurality of video content items, that the corresponding video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict a particular subject, the respective thumbnail comprises at least a portion of any frame of the video content item, or the video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict related subject matter, causing, using the control circuitry, to be provided information identifying the corresponding video content item of the plurality of video content items as a potentially legitimate content item;
- and
- in response to the determining, for each of the plurality of video content items, that the corresponding video content item and the respective thumbnail do not both depict a particular subject, the respective thumbnail does not comprise at least a portion of any frame of the video content item, and the video content item and the respective thumbnail do not both depict related subject matter, preventing the corresponding video content item and the respective thumbnail from being provided as potentially clickbait.

A system for filtering video content items comprising:
- control circuitry configured to:
- in response to a request for video content items matching at least one criterion, identify a plurality of video content items that are linked to respective thumbnails;
- determine for each of the plurality of video content items whether a video content item is potentially legitimate or potentially clickbait based on a comparison with a respective thumbnail, wherein to determine for each of the plurality of video content items whether the video content item is potentially legitimate or potentially clickbait, the control circuitry is further configured to:
- (i) determine whether the video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict a particular subject,
- (ii) determine whether the respective thumbnail comprises at least a portion of any frame of the video content item, and
- (iii) determine whether the video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict related subject matter;
- and
- in response to the determination, for each of the plurality of video content items, that the corresponding video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict a particular subject, the respective thumbnail comprises at least a portion of any frame of the video content item, or the video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict related subject matter, cause to be provided information identifying the corresponding video content item of the plurality of video content items as a potentially legitimate content item;
- and
- in response to the determination, for each of the plurality of video content items, that the corresponding video content item and the respective thumbnail do not both depict a particular subject, the respective thumbnail does not comprise at least a portion of any frame of the video content item, and the video content item and the respective thumbnail do not both depict related subject matter, prevent the corresponding video content item and the respective thumbnail from being provided as potentially clickbait.
