SYSTEM AND METHOD WITH AUTOMATED MEDIA-FILE-BASED QUIZZING

摘要

Automatic generation of questions and evaluation answers about a media item is provided for a system such as a video on demand system. A virtually unlimited number of questions can be generated without the need for subjective information. Questions about a media item are generated by selecting a media segment of the media item. At least part of the media item within the selected media segment is shown to a user. The user is asked to indicate a position within the media item where the user thinks that the segment is located. The indicated position is compared to the actual position of the segment to evaluate the answer.
