Patent number: 11475887Abstract: An electronic device receives audio data for a media item. The electronic device generates, from the audio data, a plurality of samples, each sample having a predefined maximum length. The electronic device, using a neural network trained to predict textal unit probabilities, generates a probability matrix of textual units for a first portion of a first sample of the plurality of samples. The probability matrix includes information about textual units, timing information, and respective probabilities of respective textual units at respective times. The electronic device identifies, for the first portion of the first sample, a first sequence of textual units based on the generated probability matrix.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2019Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Spotify ABInventors: Daniel Stoller, Simon René Georges Durand, Sebastian Ewert

Publication number: 20200288211Abstract: Apparatus and methods for managing provision of content to devices in a content delivery network. In one exemplary embodiment, content with a high probability of viewership is sent to consumer premises equipment (CPE) during off-peak periods and stored prior to viewing. An application is utilized to manage decisions related to content provision. The computer program will identify content that is likely to be of interest users associated with respective CPE, and schedule provision of that content in advance of viewing. Then, the system will develop a plan for optimal scheduling of transmission of content to CPEs, often including the use of trickle downloads. The scheduling plan is based collected statistical and historical data on network resource demand to make scheduling decisions. The system allows for the shifting of bandwidth utilization from periods of high demand to those of low demand, and increased performance with regard to user experienced latency.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2020Publication date: September 10, 2020Inventors: Howard Pfeffer, Daniel Stoller, Chris Stengrim
