APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING AN IMPLICIT VOTE FOR A MEDIA ITEM BASED ON USER BEHAVIOR RELATIVE TO A MEDIA CLIENT

摘要

A method of generating an implicit vote for a media item based on user behavior may comprise recording information identifying a first set of user inputs to a media client associated with playing of a first media item, receiving and storing an explicit vote for the first media item, and storing information that correlates a user input from the first set of user inputs with the explicit vote. The first set of user inputs may comprise at least one user input. The method may comprise recording information identifying a second set of user inputs to the media client associated with playing of a second media item, wherein the second set of user inputs may comprise at least one user input matching the stored correlated user input. The method may comprise generating an implicit vote for the second media item based on the stored information correlating the stored correlated user input with the explicit vote.
