Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates generally to a cognitive system and method for optimized video playback.
- There are many times when a user only has an opportunity to attend a video presentation offline, after the video presentation has been recorded. Also, quite frequently, the user might be interested in viewing just a portion of that video presentation, for example, a portion presented on a particular topic or by a specific speaker. Moreover, depending on the sentiments expressed in the video presentation, and the emotional state of the viewer, there might be better times for watching certain portions of the video presentation.
- Currently, the only way to find a specific portion of a pre-recorded video presentation is to have a direct pointer to the specific portion, or to fast-forward until the specific portion is found. However, neither of these options take into account the sentiment of the video presentation or the emotional state of the viewer.
- Therefore, there is a need for a cognitive system and method to more efficiently position to a most appropriate section of a video presentation based on the viewer's interests and emotional state. The present invention satisfies that need.
- The invention provided herein has a number of embodiments useful, for example, in implementing a cognitive system and method for optimized video playback. Specifically, the computer-implemented system and method creates a navigation aid for playback of a video presentation.
- A semantic and sentiment analysis of the video presentation is performed to identify one or more topics, speakers, and sentiments therein. The semantic and sentiment analysis of the video presentation creates an index to locations where the topics, speakers and sentiments of interest to the viewer are addressed in the video presentation.
- An analysis of at least one viewer is performed to identify the topics, speakers, and sentiments of interest to the viewer. This may include analyzing a relationship between the viewer and the topics, speakers and sentiments in the video presentation. A continuous sentiment analysis of the viewer may be performed in order to continually update the navigation aid.
- Quotients may be calculated for the identified topics, speakers and sentiments that reflect a relative interest of the viewer for the identified topics, speakers and sentiments. The quotients may be used to filter out those portions of the video presentation that have relatively lesser interest to the viewer, and the quotients may be used to create an index to those portions of the video presentation that have relatively greater interest to the viewer.
- The topics, speakers, and sentiments are associated with a time-based mapping of the video presentation based on the analysis of the viewer. A navigation aid for the video presentation is generated using the time-based mapping. The navigation aid includes entry and exit pointers to portions of the video presentation that match the viewer's areas of interest, wherein the entry and exit pointers may vary depending on a time of the day and an emotional state of the viewer.

- Hardware and Software Environment
-
FIG. 1 is a pictorial representation of a computer-implemented cognitive system and method for optimized video playback, according to one embodiment. - The
system 100 includes anetwork 102, which is the medium used to provide communications links between various devices and computers connected together within thesystem 100. In the depicted example, thenetwork 102 may be the Internet or another network. - A
server computer 104 is connected to thenetwork 102, along with one ormore web sites 106 that include sources of video presentations. In addition,client devices server computer 104 andweb sites 106 via thenetwork 102. Theseclient devices desktop computers 108, laptop ornotebook computers 110,smartphones 112, and other devices. - The
server computer 104,web sites 106, andclient devices server computer 104,web sites 106, andclient devices - In this invention, a user opts to view a video presentation, using one of the
client devices web sites 106. This intention is communicated to theserver 104, which also accesses the video presentation from one of theweb sites 106. However, the user may be interested in viewing only a portion of that video presentation, for example, a portion on a particular topic or presented by a specific speaker. Theserver 104 analyzes the video presentation in order to identify the portions of the video presentation that may be of interest to the user. - Specifically, in analyzing the video presentation, the
server 104 performs the following functions or steps: -
- 1. Performing semantic analysis of the video presentation to identify the speakers, to obtain an understanding of the topics being discussed, and to identify where the speakers and the topics being discussed can be found in a timeline of the video presentation.
- 2. Performing sentiment analysis of the video presentation and associating that analysis to the timeline of the video presentation.
- 3. Analyzing the relationship between the viewer and the speakers.
- 4. Analyzing the relationship between the viewer and the topics being presented.
- 5. Performing a continuous sentiment analysis of the viewer.
- 6. Recommending and presenting to the viewer a navigation aid for the video presentation, highlighting the topics and speakers that have a relationship with the viewer, and suggesting how the video presentation should be viewed based on a comparison of the sentiment analysis of the view presentation and the emotional state of the viewer, e.g., when there is a match between the sentiments and the emotional state.
- The creation of the navigation aid for the viewer that includes the following key aspects:
-
- Applying a cognitive approach to understand what portions or snippets of a video presentation might be of most relevance to the viewer, and highlighting (or presenting) those portions to the viewer. For example, signifying to the viewer that there are three portions that may be of interest in the video presentation.
- Recommending a proposed sequence for viewing the portions of the video presentation of most relevance to the viewer. For example, informing the user that the three portions that may be of interest should be watched sequentially or in some other order.
- Recommending a proposed time for viewing the portions of the video presentation of most relevance to the viewer. For example, informing the user that the first two of the three portions that may be of interest should be watched sequentially, whereas a third portion can be viewed at a different time. This aspect, when combined with the other aspects, not only expedites access to the relevant portions, but also permits that access to occur at the most appropriate time in the viewer's day to match the viewer's emotional state.
- Displaying the lengths of the portions of the video presentation of most relevance to the viewer. For example, signifying to the viewer that the three portions that may be of interest have the listed lengths.
- There are a number of advantages to this invention. One advantage is that the
system 100 provides the most efficient and effective way to consume only the important portions of the video presentation that are relevant to the viewer at the most appropriate time. Another advantage is that thesystem 100 can surface portions of the video presentation to match the emotional state of a viewer at a given time, for example, if the score of a portion of the video presentation ranks at 30% “relaxed” and matches the rank of the viewer, then that portion of the video presentation is made available to the viewer. - There are further enhancements that can be made to the invention. One enhancement is that sentiment analysis of the video presentation (or a portion of it) can be improved by analyzing the individual emotional responses of other viewers to the video presentation. This analysis not only considers the content of the video presentation itself, but also validates the responses from other viewers.
- System Components
-
FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating how the cognitive system and method for optimized video playback is implemented, according to one embodiment. In this embodiment, the optimized video playback is implemented by: -
- a
browser 200 and anagent 202 executed on the user'sdevices browser 200 is used to play the video presentation and theagent 202 is used to track the user's activities, behaviors, reactions, etc.; and - a plurality of modules 204-208 executed on the
server 104 that communicate with thebrowser 200 andagent 202 installed on the user'sdevices browser 200 and to analyze the user's activities, behaviors, reactions, etc., as tracked by theagent 202.
- a
- In alternative embodiments, however, these functions may be wholly performed on the
server 104 orclient devices - To analyze both the video presentation and the user's activities, behaviors, reactions, etc., as tracked by the
agent 202, theserver 104 implements the following modules and functionality. - A
Presentation Analysis module 204 performs semantic and sentiment analysis on the video presentation. ThePresentation Analysis module 204 identifies topics, and creates an index to the locations where the topics are addressed in the video presentation; thePresentation Analysis module 204 identifies speakers, and creates an index to the locations where the speakers are talking in the video presentation; andPresentation Analysis module 204 identifies sentiments, and creates an index to the locations where the sentiments are expressed in the video presentation. ThePresentation Analysis module 204 then creates a time-based mapping chart, i.e., an annotated timeline, using the indexes to the locations in the video presentation for the topics, speakers and sentiments. - A
Viewer Analysis module 206 analyzes the viewer's affinity to the topics and speakers identified in the video presentation. TheViewer Analysis module 206 determines the viewer's interests towards certain topics and speakers by applying cognitive analysis to previous interactions (emails, chats, phone calls, threads, search histories, etc.) between the viewer and the topics and speakers identified in the video presentation. These interactions may be received from theclient devices web sites 106. Thereafter, theViewer Analysis module 206 updates the timeline to highlight the topics and speakers of interest to the viewer. - This analysis of the viewer entails more than just looking at their history; the
Viewer Analysis module 206 looks at the context of the previous interactions, what topics were discussed, the frequency of interactions, whether other people were involved, etc. This analysis includes (but is not limited to) semantic and sentiment analysis of previous or similar interactions between the viewer and the topics and speakers identified in the video presentation, wherein personal relationships may be considered along with role-based relationships. TheViewer Analysis module 206 also analyzes the viewer's social media subscriptions and interactions on theweb sites 106 to identify the topics and speakers of interest to the viewer, for example, people being followed by the viewer. Further, theViewer Analysis module 206 performs continuous sentiment analysis of the viewer in order to continually update the navigation aid. - The Presentation Analysis and
Viewer Analysis modules - A
Recommendation module 208 uses the quotients generated by thePresentation Analysis module 204 and theViewer Analysis module 206 to filter out portions of the video presentation that are of relatively lesser interest to the viewer. TheRecommendation module 208 also uses the quotients to create an index with those portions of the video presentation that are of relatively greater interest to the viewer and their corresponding sentiment quotient. - With the index and the quotients from the
Presentation Analysis module 204 and theViewer Analysis module 206, theRecommendation module 208 creates a dynamic, viewer-specific, navigation aid from the timeline with entry and exit pointers to the portions of the video presentation that match the viewer's areas of interest. The pointers will vary depending on the time of the day and the emotional state of the viewer. Thereafter, the navigation aid may be downloaded to theclient devices client devices server 104. - Use Case
- Consider the following use case illustrated in
FIG. 3 . - A viewer accesses a
pre-recorded video presentation 300 on aweb site 106 using theirclient devices video presentation 300 covers such topics as HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), which is the standard markup language for creating web pages and web applications; XML (eXtensible Markup Language), which is a markup language similar to HTML; JavaScript (JS), which is a lightweight interpreted or just-in-time compiled programming language used with web pages and web applications; CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), which is a stylesheet language used to describe the presentation of web pages written in HTML and XML; and AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript And XML), which is used to communicate withweb sites 106. - The
Presentation Analysis module 204 performs semantic and sentiment analysis on thevideo presentation 300. Specifically, thePresentation Analysis module 204 identifies topics in thevideo presentation 300, and creates an index to the locations where the topics are addressed in thevideo presentation 300; thePresentation Analysis module 204 identifies speakers in thevideo presentation 300, and creates an index to the locations where the speakers are talking in thevideo presentation 300; andPresentation Analysis module 204 identifies sentiments in thevideo presentation 300, and creates an index to the locations where the sentiments are expressed in thevideo presentation 300. ThePresentation Analysis module 204 then creates a time-based mapping chart using the indexes to the locations in thevideo presentation 300 for the topics, speakers and sentiments. - The
Viewer Analysis module 206 analyzes the viewer's affinity to the topics, speakers and sentiments identified in thevideo presentation 300. In this use case, the viewer's particular interest is the topic of JavaScript. TheViewer Analysis module 206 determines this interest by applying cognitive analysis to the viewer's emails, chats, phone calls, threads, search histories, etc., which may have been received from theclient devices web sites 106. - The Presentation Analysis and
Viewer Analysis modules - The
Recommendation module 208 uses the quotients generated by thePresentation Analysis module 204 and theViewer Analysis module 206 to filter out portions of thevideo presentation 300 that are of relatively lesser interest to the viewer, namely topics that are not directed to JavaScript. TheRecommendation module 208 also creates an index with those portions of thevideo presentation 300 that are of relatively greater interest to the viewer, namely topics that are directed to JavaScript. With that index, theRecommendation module 208 creates a dynamic, viewer-specific,navigation aid 302 for thevideo presentation 300 from the timeline, thereby allowing the viewer to select the portions of thevideo presentation 300 that match the viewer's areas of interest, in this case, topics that are directed to JavaScript. Thenavigation aid 302 includes entry and exit pointers to the specific portions of thevideo presentation 300 directed to the topic of JavaScript. - The
navigation aid 302 may be downloaded to theclient devices client devices server 104. - Flowchart
