Patent number: 8442384Abstract: Automated video digest system and method. The system decomposes video and audio portions of video media into low-level descriptors, producing a large number of such descriptors for each video image and scene. These descriptors are optimized to be both compatible with rapid automated descriptor creation, and also to have some positive or negative statistical correlation with the viewing preferences of typical human viewers. By comparing the number of descriptors correlated with positive human viewing preferences, versus the number of descriptors correlated with negative human viewing preferences, the automated system may analyze an unknown video program and make educated guesses as to which portions of the program are likely to be most interesting to the viewer on playback. Less interesting portions may be skipped or fast-forwarded though. The method may also be optimized to individual viewers. Such methods are useful for controlling the playback of digital video recorders and other systems.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2008Date of Patent: May 14, 2013Inventors: Michael Bronstein, Alexander Bronstein, Shlomo Selim Rakib, Asaf Matatyaou

Patent number: 8346064Abstract: On a recording medium, there are recorded content files and an index file. The index file is constituted by attribute information of the content files (title text data, thumbnail-image data or the like).

A computer sets up, in a nonvolatile memory, status information indicative of being in a predetermined process stage, during the predetermined process stage from a start of changing the content file to a termination of updating the index file. The computer, at turning on power, determines the matching/mismatching between the content and index files recorded on the recording medium utilizing the status information, thus repairing the index file as required.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2006Date of Patent: January 1, 2013Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Hideo Obata, Shigeru Kashiwagi, Masayoshi Ohno
