  • Patent number: 11507551
    Abstract: Various methods and systems for performing analytics based on hierarchical categorization of content are provided. Analytics can be performed using an index building workflow and a classification workflow. In the index building workflow, documents are received and analyzed to extract features from the documents. Hierarchical category paths can be identified for the features. The documents are indexed to support searching the documents for the hierarchical category paths. In the classification workflow, a query, that includes or references content, may be received and analyzed to extract features from the content. The features are executed against a search engine that returns search result documents associated with hierarchical category paths. The hierarchical category paths from the search result documents may be used to generate a topic model of the content associated with the query.

  • Patent number: 9143329
    Abstract: A media signer produces an array of hash values including a respective hash value for each of multiple different portions of content. The media signer applies a hash function and an encryption key to the array of hash values to create a digital signature associated with the content. Prior to playback of the content, a media verifier retrieves the array of hash values for the different portions of content. The media verifier produces a hash value result for the retrieved array. Based on the hash value result for the retrieved array and a hash value result of the array in the received digital signature, the media verifier verifies the integrity of the retrieved array. If the retrieved array of hash values is found to be trustworthy, the media verifier determines the integrity of a portion of the content by verifying the portion's corresponding hash value from the “trustworthy” array.
