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. The system causes to be provided information identifying the plurality of video content items. For each video content item of the plurality of video content items that corresponds to a respective image content item, the system causes to be provided an indicator that correspondence has been verified.
Claims21
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;
- causing, using the control circuitry, to be provided information identifying the plurality of video content items;
- in response to the determining, for each video content item 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 an indicator that the determined potential legitimacy has been verified;
- and
- in response to the determining, for each video content item 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, or the video content item and the respective thumbnail do not both depict related subject matter, causing, using the control circuitry, to be provided an indicator that the determined potential legitimacy has not been determined.

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 the control circuitry is further configured, for the determining for each of the plurality of video content items whether the video content item is potentially legitimate or potentially clickbait, to:
- (i) determine whether the video content item and the respective thumbnail both depict a particular subject,
- (ii) determine whether the respective thumb nail 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;
- cause to be provided information identifying the plurality of video content items;
- in response to the determining, for each video content item 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 an indicator that the determined potential legitimacy has been verified;
- and
- in response to the determining, for each video content item 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, or the video content item and the respective thumbnail do not both depict related subject matter, cause to be provided an indicator that the determined potential legitimacy has not been determined.
7 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions recorded thereon for filtering video content items, the instructions comprising:
- an instruction for, 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;
- an instruction for 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;
- an instruction for causing, using the control circuitry, to be provided information identifying the plurality of video content items;
- an instruction for, in response to the determining, for each video content item 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 an indicator that the determined potential legitimacy has been verified;
- and
- an instruction for, in response to the determining, for each video content item 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, or the video content item and the respective thumbnail do not both depict related subject matter, causing, using the control circuitry, to be provided an indicator that the determined potential legitimacy has not been determined.
