Description of drawings
The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with embodiment and accompanying drawing, wherein:
Fig. 1 is an EPG calibration system logic diagram of the present invention;
Fig. 2 is an EPG calibration steps flow chart of the present invention.
Embodiment
A kind of EPG calibration system and method based on the user behavior cluster analysis that the present invention proposes are to carry out cluster analysis by the daily record that the user is produced when program is reviewed in program request, judge the correct program beginning and ending time and note to subsequent user and use.It is to realize on the basis of analysis user behavior daily record, concerning domestic consumer, when user's program request program but when but not receiving correct beginning, he can attempt current Media Stream is carried out the fast forwarding and fast rewinding behavior, and he can stop and begins to watch during to satisfied position when fast forwarding and fast rewinding.This satisfied position might be head, also might be that to have skipped the content of head initial.Therefore, the logging machine top box is at the Operation Log of streaming media server request program and be kept in the log database, by to the Operation Log in the log database and carry out cluster analysis, just can obtain the zero-time of program, and then the zero-time that cluster analysis obtains program write among the EPG, can use for subsequent user, accurately to navigate to the program that needs.
See also Fig. 1.The EPG calibration system that the present invention is based on the user behavior cluster analysis comprises set-top box, streaming media server and daily record cluster analysis engine.Wherein:
Set-top box is obtained programm name, program zero-time, program end time from EPG information, when the user selects the program of certain channel to watch, set-top box sends the streaming media server of signaling to front end, and the initial concluding time that streaming media server is set according to EPG broadcasts program stream and gives set-top box.
Streaming media server comprises a log record database and daily record cluster analysis engine.The operation behavior in the whole process of program is reviewed in the program request of log database recording user, comprises program request, F.F., and rewind down stops etc., and produces oplogs store in log database.In this specific embodiment, the form of Operation Log is (user, channel, program, operation, five-tuple time), wherein, user represents user ID, channel represents channel designation, and program represents programm name, and operation represents action type, as F.F., broadcast etc., the Media Stream time when time represents that the user operates.For example User operation log may for (user1, CCTV1,16, play, 10:30:26).Wherein user id is user1, channel designation is CCTV1, the id of the program of program request is 16, user's operation is play, Media Stream time during operation is 10:30:26, what it should be noted that time representative in the five-tuple is the Media Stream time of user when operating, the just current time of reviewing in the program.
The Operation Log that daily record cluster analysis engine is used for the user is produced when program is reviewed in program request carries out cluster analysis, judges correct program zero-time and notes for subsequent user and use.Daily record cluster analysis engine carries out preliminary treatment to daily record data earlier, deletes noise data, and then pretreated data are carried out cluster analysis.Its principle is as follows:
1, data preliminary treatment
The pretreated purpose of data is to remove noise data, so-called noise data is meant the User operation log that can not be used as the cluster analysis data source, in reviewing system, be presented as the operation behavior of user's randomness more, comprise that the user arbitrarily browses and leaves, the user is overdue to be left after hitting etc. at once, the characteristics of this class behavior are that normal viewing time is not directly proportional with the duration of program, and operation is frequently greater than normally watching.
Daily record cluster analysis engine is according to the time of setting the Operation Log information of database to be carried out cluster analysis, and it is to five-tuple (user, the channel of Operation Log, program, operation time) analyzes, and the behavior daily record of user's randomness is deleted.Can eliminate by setting threshold this, for the normal viewing time of program (promptly not operation during this period of time) take browse this program span time (being that the user is from watching program to the Media Stream time span that withdraws from program) in the family ratio less than to a certain degree, then think improper user.
2, pretreated data are carried out cluster analysis
The primitive of describing user's operation has play (broadcast), fast forward (F.F.), back forward (rewind down), teardown (stopping) etc.For instance, be the program " light of science and technology " of 10:30:26-10:56:10 for time range, certain user may produce following Operation Log:
1)play?10:30:26
2)fast?forward?10:30:39
3)back?forward?10:34:55
4)play?10:33:02
Can see from user's Operation Log: 1) user at first from EPG program request " light of science and technology ", therefore at this time play with time parameter identical with EPG; 2) user finds that the program that broadcasts is not " light of science and technology ", but advertisement, so he selects F.F., and forwarding operation is to send when playing programs has arrived 10:30:39 reviewing; 3) user finds that F.F. is initial considerably beyond program, so he selects rewind down, sends when playing programs has arrived 10:34:55 reviewing during fast reverse operation; 4) user has finally fallen back on the satisfied time soon, and at this time normal play begins, and the time is 10:33:02.
More than be the operation behavior record of a normal users when inaccurate EPG is arrived in program request, to the normal play time of Operation Log, also be 4 in the Operation Log) time point carry out the Density Clustering analysis, can obtain several bunches, select maximum bunch, its mean value can be used as the initial reference value of program.
With clustering result, also be that the program zero-time writes database at last, watch use, thereby promote user's satisfaction for follow-up user.
The employed data of cluster be (user, channel, program, " play ", five-tuple time), basic DBSCAN algorithm is adopted in the Density Clustering analysis, resulting bunch of cluster be time bunch, be one dimension.When existing under a plurality of bunches the situation, situation that may be such: the certain user navigates to the program head and begins just to stop to watch; The other user then can skip the program head, the direct viewing programme content.Therefore at this time can select bigger two bunches simultaneously for use.What pay particular attention to is that the action type that the last Operation Log that uses of cluster uses only is broadcast, and does not comprise other action type such as F.F., rewind down etc.
See also Fig. 2, the EPG calibration steps that the present invention is based on user's operation behavior comprises the following steps:
Step 1, the operation log recording of user's on-demand playback program is stored in the log database.Media Stream time when Operation Log comprises user ID, channel designation, programm name, user's action type and operation.The described Media Stream time comprises reproduction time, F.F. time, rewind down time and dwell time.
Step 2, daily record cluster analysis engine carry out preliminary treatment to the operating data of Operation Log data-base recording, remove noise data;
Step 3, daily record cluster analysis engine carry out cluster analysis to pretreated data, obtain the time reference value that program begins normal play.The DBSCAN algorithm is selected in described cluster analysis for use, and the object of cluster is exactly the time reference value that program begins normal play.
Step 4, the zero-time of above-mentioned reference value as program is written among the EPG, uses for follow-up user.
