Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for obtaining enhanced metadata for media content searches. In one embodiment, computer program logic embodies a metadata receiver and a media content metadata matcher and combiner. The metadata receiver receives program metadata for a plurality of programs from a plurality of metadata sources. The media content metadata matcher and combiner is configured to perform a matching process whereby metadata associated with each of the plurality of programs is compared to metadata of each of the other plurality of programs to determine if the compared programs are the same program and if so, to combine the metadata from each program into a single program including enhanced metadata and store such in a database. A subsequent search for a program corresponding to the stored program returns at least some of the metadata associated with the program, and that enables accessing the program.

Abstract: One embodiment of a method includes determining, by a Bayesian optimizer, a first sparsity ratio associated with a limit on an accuracy loss caused by compressing the machine learning model. The method further includes selecting, by the Bayesian optimizer, a second sparsity ratio that optimizes a predefined objective function for the machine learning model within a search space bounded by the first sparsity ratio. The method further includes generating a compressed version of the machine learning model having the second sparsity ratio.
