Abstract

Methods and systems of dynamic content analysis for categorizing media contents are provided. Data regarding the media contents thata user is watching on one or more devices is obtained, and the environment in which the user is watching the media contents may be captured. Metadata categorizing the events and the media contents can be generated, and the metadata may be further associated with a corresponding event.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: performing dynamic analysis of a scene of a media content being viewed by a user to determine one or more elements present in the scene and recognize one or more events involving the one or more elements occurring in the scene, wherein the dynamic analysis of the scene is performed without utilizing predetermined information associated with either the one or more elements or the one or more events; analyzing one or more concurrent activities of the user during the viewing of the media content; generating real-time metadata comprising information characterizing at least one of the one or more elements and the one or more events and information characterizing the one or more concurrent activities of the user; and requesting supplementary information based upon the real-time metadata. 10. An apparatus, comprising: non-transitory memory storing a set of instructions; and a processor coupled to the non-transitory, wherein the set of instructions are configured to cause the processor to: perform dynamic analysis of a scene of a media content being viewed by a user to determine one or more elements present in the scene and recognize one or more events involving the one or more elements occurring in the scene, wherein the dynamic analysis of the scene is performedwithout utilizing predetermined information associated with either the one or more elements or the one or more events; analyze one or more concurrent activities of the user duringthe viewing of the media content; generate real-time metadata comprising information characterizing at least one of the one or more elements and the one or more events and information characterizing the one or more concurrent activities of the user; and request supplementary information based upon the real-time metadata.
