Abstract: Systems and methods for optimizing resource utilization of an automated content recognition (ACR) system by delaying the identification of certain large quantities of media cue data are described. The delayed identification of the media may be for the purpose of, for example, generating usage statistics or other non-time critical work flow, among other non-real-time uses. In addition, real-time identification of a certain subset of media cue data is performed for the purposes of video program substitution, interactive television opportunities or other time-specific events.

Abstract: Provided are systems, methods, and computer-program products for identifying a media content stream when the media content stream is playing an unscheduled media segment. A computing device may receive a plurality of media content streams, where at least two of the plurality of media content streams concurrently includes a same unscheduled media segment. The computing device may determine that the media display device is playing the unscheduled media segment by examining the media content available at the current time in each of the plurality of media content streams. The computing device may determine identification information from the media content included in the media content stream. The computing device may determine contextually-related content, which may be disabled while the unscheduled media segment is being played by the media display device. The computing device may display the media content stream and the contextually-related content after the unscheduled media segment has been played.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying a media segment of audio or video content are described. The video segment is identified by deriving data from media content and comparing said data to a reference database in order to identify said video segment. Embodiments of the invention improve the speed and accuracy of the media identification process by advantageously partitioning the indexes in subdivisions where high value reference information is separated from the bulk information, for example.

Abstract: Techniques and systems are provided for identifying a video segment displayed on a screen of a remote television system, and providing an option to switch to an alternative or related version of the video program that includes the video segment. For example, video segments displayed on a screen of a television system can be identified, and contextually-targeted content or contextually-related alternative content can be provided to a television system based on the identification of a video segment. The alternative or related version of the video program can include the currently displayed program in an on-demand format that can be viewed off-line and can be started over from a beginning portion of the program.

Abstract: Provided are devices, computer-program products, and methods related to removing redundant data associated with frames. For example, a method can include storing a plurality of reference data sets in a reference database, where a reference data set is associated with a media segment. The method can further include receiving, by a server, cue data for a frame. The cue data includes a plurality of pixel data samples from the frame, and the frame is associated with an unidentified media segment. The method can further include identifying an absence of a pixel data sample from the cue data for the frame, and matching the cue data for the frame to a reference data set. The matching can include using a previous pixel data sample from a previous frame. The previous pixel data sample corresponds to the pixel data sample absent from the frame, and the reference data set is associated with a media segment. The method can further include determining the unidentified media segment is the media segment.

Abstract: A determination of the relative influences on an advertising conversion that are credited to particular ad impressions across varied channels is facilitated through Shapley value calculation and assignment. A Shapley value is arrived at through assigning binary places in a Boolean value to a plurality of advertising channels and/or platforms, the Boolean values combinable to quickly determine for a particular advertising campaign which of the plurality of advertising channels and/or platforms was influential in a consumer's decision to initiate a transaction for goods or services associated with an advertisement rendered via the plurality of advertising channels and/or platforms. In this manner, an advertiser having arranged for messages associated with an advertising campaign to be distributed via disparate advertising channels and/or platforms may realize the relative performance of the various advertising channels and/or platforms.
