Patent number: 11113537Abstract: In some embodiments, a first detector generates a first output based on a first probability that an image was inserted in a video. The first detector is trained with a set of known images to detect the set of known images. A second detector generates a second output based on a second probability that an image was inserted in the video. The second detector is used to detect the set of unknown images without training. The method analyzes the first output from the first detector based on the probability of the image existing in the video and the second output from the second detector based on the probability of the image existing in the video to generate a combined score from the first output and the second output. An indication of whether the image is detected in the video is output based on the combined score.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2019Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: HULU, LLCInventors: Kaiwen Deng, Yunsheng Jiang, Xiaohui Xie
