Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for indicating whether a scene in a media asset corresponds to a scene for which a scene change was previously requested. A media player client monitors scene sequences in a media asset to anticipate whether the user will initiate a scene change request based on historical scene change data. In response to detecting a scene sequence for which the user is expected to request a scene change, the media player client determines whether a scene change is necessary and outputs an indication of whether a scene change is recommended.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- determining that metadata for a media asset is not retrievable;
- allocating a temporal interval to a scene of the media asset;
- identifying a prominent frame within the temporal interval by determining that an image depicted in the prominent frame appears in a threshold number of frames within the temporal interval;
- automatically categorizing the scene by performing image classification on the identified prominent frame to output a descriptive label;
- and
- outputting an indication of whether a scene change is recommended based on a comparison between the descriptive label and a category of a historical scene change request.
A system comprising control circuitry configured to:
- determine that metadata for a media asset is not retrievable;
- allocate a temporal interval to a scene of the media asset;
- identify a prominent frame within the temporal interval by determining that an image depicted in the prominent frame appears in a threshold number of frames within the temporal interval;
- automatically categorize the scene by performing image classification on the identified prominent frame to output a descriptive label;
- and
- output an indication of whether a scene change is recommended based on a comparison between the descriptive label and a category of a historical scene change request.
