AUTOMATED MULTIMEDIA CONTENT RECOGNITION

摘要

An automated content recognition system accurately and reliably generates content identification information for multimedia content without accessing the multimedia content or a reliable source of the multimedia content. The system receives content-based queries having fingerprints of multimedia content. The system compares the individual queries to one another to match queries and thereby form query clusters that correspond to the same multimedia content. The system aggregates identification information from the queries in a cluster to generate reliable content identification information from otherwise unreliable identification information.
