  • Publication number: 20240134901
    Abstract: A method and system for coding of a media “genome” employs machine learning models for social tagging of media titles. A media genome is a detailed description of the intrinsic elements that make up a piece of content; it is a comprehensive taxonomy that considers every impactful dimension of a film, TV episode, video short, video game, or other media title. The genome may be used by filmmakers to better understand their content, as well as that of competitors. It may also be used by entertainment marketers to better target their marketing budget for specific audiences, and by brands to determine which televisions programs and films they wish to advertise around or sponsor placements in.

  • Publication number: 20240098106
    Abstract: Technologies for generating a set of models for each account, where each model is a fine-grained, unsupervised behavior model trained for each user to monitor and detect anomalous patterns are described. An unsupervised training pipeline can generate user models, each being associated with one of multiple accounts and is trained to detect an anomalous pattern using feature data associated with the one account. Each account is associated with at least one of a user, a machine, or a service. An inference pipeline can detect a first anomalous pattern in first data associated with a first account using a first user model. The inference pipeline can detect a second anomalous pattern in second data associated with a second account using a second user model.
