Disturbance detection in video communications
Embodiments disclosed herein provide systems, methods, and computer readable media for detecting disturbances in a media stream from a participant on a communication. In a particular embodiment, a method provides identifying disturbance criteria defining a plurality of audible disturbances, a plurality of visual disturbances, and a plurality of communication disturbances. The method further provides identifying one or more audible disturbances from an audio component of the media stream based on predefined disturbance criteria and identifying one or more visual disturbances from a video component of the media stream based on the disturbance criteria. Additionally, the method provides correlating the audible disturbances with the visual disturbances to determine one or more combined disturbances for the participant based on the disturbance criteria, wherein each of the combined disturbances comprises at least one of the audible disturbances and at least one of the visual disturbances.
1. A method of detecting disturbances in a first media stream captured of a participant on a communication, the method comprising:
identifying one or more audible disturbances from an audio component of the first media stream based on disturbance criteria defining a plurality of audible disturbances, a plurality of visual disturbances, and a plurality of combined disturbances;
identifying one or more visual disturbances from a video component of the first media stream based on the disturbance criteria;
correlating the audible disturbances with the visual disturbances to determine one or more combined disturbances for the participant based on the disturbance criteria, wherein each of the combined disturbances comprises at least one of the audible disturbances and at least one of the visual disturbances;
for at least one combined disturbance of the combined disturbances, removing the at least one audible disturbance of the at least one combined disturbance from the first media stream before transferring the first media stream to another participant on the communication.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving biometric information about the participant contemporaneously with the first media stream; and
correlating the biometric information along with the audible disturbances and the visual disturbances to determine the combined disturbances.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
correlating the audible disturbances with the visual disturbances to determine whether at least one of the audible disturbances and at least one of the visual disturbances were falsely identified.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining a disturbance score for the participant based on the audible, visual, and combined disturbances.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein factors used when determining the disturbance score comprise one or more of a total amount of disturbances, an amount of disturbances by type of disturbance, and frequency of disturbances.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
for at least one disturbance of the audible, visual, and combined disturbances, replacing the at least one disturbance in the first media stream with a prerecorded media stream element.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
for at least one disturbance of the audible, visual, and combined disturbances, inserting a prerecorded media stream element into the first media stream after the at least one disturbance.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
providing the participant with feedback concerning the audible, visual, and combined disturbances.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the feedback includes at least one recommendation for mitigating at least one of the audible, visual, and combined disturbances.
10. A system for detecting disturbances in a first media stream captured of a participant on a communication, the system comprising:
an interface configured to receive an audio component of the first media stream and a video component of the first media stream; and
a processing system configured to:
identify one or more audible disturbances from the audio component of the first media stream based on disturbance criteria defining a plurality of audible disturbances, a plurality of visual disturbances, and a plurality of combined disturbance;
identify one or more visual disturbances from the video component of the first media stream based on the disturbance criteria;
correlate the audible disturbances with the visual disturbances to determine one or more combined disturbances for the participant based on the disturbance criteria, wherein each of the combined disturbances comprises at least one of the audible disturbances and at least one of the visual disturbances; and
for at least one combined disturbance of the combined disturbances, remove the at least one audible disturbance of the at least one combined disturbance from the first media stream before transferring the first media stream to another participant on the communication.
11. The system of claim 10 , further comprising:
the interface configured to receive biometric information about the participant contemporaneously with the first media stream; and
the processing system configured to correlate the biometric information along with the audible disturbances and the visual disturbances to determine the combined disturbances.
12. The system of claim 10 , further comprising:
the processing system configured to correlate the audible disturbances with the visual disturbances to determine whether at least one of the audible disturbances and at least one of the visual disturbances were falsely identified.
13. The system of claim 10 , further comprising:
the processing system configured to determine a disturbance score for the participant based on the audible, visual, and combined disturbances.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the processing system is configured to use one or more of a total amount of disturbances, an amount of disturbances by type of disturbance, and frequency of disturbances as factors when determining the disturbance score.
15. The system of claim 10 , further comprising:
the processing system configured to, for at least one disturbance of the audible, visual, and combined disturbances, replace the at least one disturbance in the first media stream with a prerecorded media stream element.
16. The system of claim 10 , further comprising:
the processing system configured to, for at least one disturbance of the audible, visual, and combined disturbances, insert a prerecorded media stream element into the first media stream after the at least one disturbance.
17. The system of claim 10 , further comprising:
the processing system configured to provide the participant with feedback concerning the audible, visual, and combined disturbances.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the feedback includes at least one recommendation for mitigating at least one of the audible, visual, and combined disturbances.
