  • Method and system for generating a visual representation of media content for performing graph-based media content evaluation
    Patent number: 11550840
    Abstract: According to one implementation, a system for performing graph-based media content evaluation includes a computing platform having a hardware processor, and a system memory storing a media content evaluation software code and a graph database. The hardware processor is configured to execute the media content evaluation software code to receive a query from a system user, and to identify one or more media content evaluation metrics corresponding to the query. In addition, the hardware processor is configured to execute the media content evaluation software code to search the graph database for a media content data relevant to the one or more media content evaluation metrics, and to retrieve the media content data from the graph database. The hardware processor is further configured to execute the media content evaluation software code to generate a report responsive to the query using the media content data.

  • Media content annotation
    Patent number: 10299013
    Abstract: According to one implementation, a media content annotation system includes a computing platform including a hardware processor and a system memory storing a model-driven annotation software code. The hardware processor executes the model-driven annotation software code to receive media content for annotation, identify a data model corresponding to the media content, and determine a workflow for annotating the media content based on the data model, the workflow including multiple tasks. The hardware processor further executes the model-driven annotation software code to identify one or more annotation contributors for performing the tasks included in the workflow, distribute the tasks to the one or more annotation contributors, receive inputs from the one or more contributors responsive to at least some of the tasks, and generate an annotation for the media content based on the inputs.
