Abstract: A content enhancement system includes a computing platform having processing hardware and a system memory storing software code. The processing hardware is configured to execute the software code to receive audio-video (A/V) content, to execute at least one of a visual analysis or an audio analysis of the A/V content, and to determine, based on executing the at least one of the visual analysis or the audio analysis, an emotional aspect of the A/V content. The processing hardware is further configured to execute the software code to generate, using the emotional aspect of the A/V content, a sign language translation of the A/V content, the sign language translation including one or more of a gesture, a posture, or a facial expression conveying the emotional aspect.

Abstract: Pirated copies of various types of media are analyzed to detect various artifacts that may be missing from the originals. These artifacts are then used to identify and trace pirated copies for forensic studies. The artifacts may include global artifacts that are present throughout media, or could be local or special artifacts that are present only in a small portion of the media. Moreover the artifacts can be at least one of an audio event, a visual event, a visual watermark or an audio watermark.
