Abstract
A method includes receiving media data corresponding to a media content item. The method further includes analyzing the media data to determine characteristics of the media content item based on first visual information contained in the media content item. The method further includes analyzing the characteristics of the media content item based on a media popularity model to generate a prediction of whether the media content item is likely to exceed a popularity threshold within a particular period of time. The method further includes determining, at the computing device, a network location at which to store the media content item based on the prediction.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a computing device, media data corresponding to a media content item;
- analyzing, at the computing device, the media data to determine characteristics of the media content item based on first visual information contained in the media content item;
- analyzing, at the computing device, the characteristics of the media content item based on a media popularity model to generate a prediction of whether the media content item is likely to exceed a popularity threshold within a particular period of time;
- and
- initiating storage of the media content item at a network location selected from a plurality of network locations based on the prediction.
A computer-readable storage device storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving media data corresponding to a media content item;
- analyzing the media data to determine characteristics of the media content item based on first visual information contained in the media content item;
- analyzing the characteristics of the media content item based on a media popularity model to generate a prediction of whether the media content item is likely to exceed a popularity threshold within a particular period of time;
- and
- initiating storage of the media content item at a network location selected from a plurality of network locations based on the prediction.
An apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory configured to store instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving media data corresponding to a media content item;
- generating a prediction of whether the media content item is likely to exceed a popularity threshold within a particular period of time, the prediction generated based on a comparison of characteristics of the media content item to a media popularity model, the characteristics identified based on visual information included in the media content item;
- and
- initiating storage of the media content item at a network location selected from a plurality of network locations based on the prediction.
