Presentation assessment and valuation system
A computer implemented interactive presentation assessment and valuation system which provides a server computer that allows one or more computing devices to access a presentation assessment and valuation system which provides a presentation analyzer which applies standardized scoring algorithms to the video data or audio data associated with a presentation and correspondingly generates standardized word rate, word clarity, filler words, tone, or eye contact scores, and calculates a presentation score based upon an average or weighted average of the scores.
1. A system, comprising:
a server which serves a program through a network to coordinate processing of a presentation, said program including:
a user interface executable to:
depict a graphical user interface on a display surface of a computing device;
record by user command in said graphical user interface a presentation; retrieve by user indications in said graphical user interface said presentation;
depict in said graphical user interface on said display surface of said first computing device said presentation; and
an eye contact analyzer executable to:
analyze occurrence of eye contact in speaker data within said presentation;
retrieve pixel data within said presentation corresponding to head, eye, or iris position;
compare relative pixel intensity level of said pixel data to an eye contact threshold;
calculate an eye contact rate based upon an amount of time units said pixel level intensity exceeds said eye contact threshold divided by total time units encompassed by said speaker data.
2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a presentation scoring module executable to calculate an eye contact score, wherein if said eye contact rate exceeds a pre-selected eye contact rate threshold, then said eye contact score equals 100, and wherein if said eye contact rate is less than the eye contact rate threshold, then the eye contact score equals the eye contact rate.
3. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a transcription module executable to analyze speech data included in said presentation, including:
count words in said speech data;
count filler words in said speech data; and
depict in said graphical user interface on said display surface of said computing device said presentation;
a formatter executable to:
format text of said speech data including all of said words in said speech data and said filler words in said speech data in a formatted text display area,
depict a filler word indicator visually identifying each filler word in said formatted text;
associate a filler word trigger area with each filler word visually identified in said formatted text;
activate said filler word trigger area by user command; and
depict a filler word score image in said formatted text discrete from said filler word trigger area, said filler word score image including a filler word count of said filler words in said formatted text.
4. The system of claim 3 , wherein said formatted text comprises spatially fixed paragraphs.
5. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a transcription module executable to analyze speech data included in said presentation, including:
count words in said speech data;
count filler words in said speech data; and
depict in said graphical user interface on said display surface of said computing device said recorded presentation; and
a formatter executable to concurrently depict on a display surface of said computing device:
formatted text of said speech data including all of said words in said speech data and said filler words in said speech data in a formatted text display area.
6. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a transcription module executable to analyze speech data included in said presentation, including:
count words in said speech data;
count filler words in said speech data;
assign a word recognition confidence metric to each of said words and said filler words in said speech data, wherein said recognition confidence metric determined by extracting word confidence features and processing said word confidence features against one or more word confidence feature recognition thresholds for the word;
depict in said graphical user interface on said display surface of said computing device said presentation;
a formatter executable to:
format text of said speech data including all of said words in said speech data and said filler words in said speech data in a formatted text display area,
depict a clarity indicator visually identifying each word in said formatted text having a word recognition confidence metric of less than said word recognition confidence metric threshold;
associate a clarity trigger area with each word in said formatted text having said word recognition confidence metric of less than said word recognition confidence metric threshold;
activate said clarity trigger area by user command; and
depict a clarity score image in said formatted text discrete from said clarity trigger area, said clarity score image including said word recognition confidence metric of said word associated with said trigger area.
7. The system of claim 1 further comprising:
a transcription module executable to analyze speech data included in said presentation including:
count words in said speech data;
count filler words in said speech data; and
assign a word recognition confidence metric to each of said words and said filler words in said speech data, wherein said recognition confidence metric determined by extracting word confidence features and processing said word confidence features against one or more word confidence feature recognition thresholds for said words in said speech data;
a presentation scoring module executable to:
calculate a word rate score;
calculate a clarity score;
calculate a filler word score;
calculate a presentation score as an average of the sum of two or more of said word rate score, said clarity score and said filler word score;
associate said word rate score, said clarity score, said filler word score, and said presentation score with said presentation;
retrievably save said presentation associated with said word rate score, said clarity score, said filler word score, and said presentation score in a presentation database; and
depict in said graphical user interface on said display surface of said computing device said presentation and one or more of said word rate score said clarity score, said filler word score, and said presentation score in a presentation score display-area on said display surface associated with said computing device.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein said word rate score equals a pre-selected word rate which corresponds to a word rate score of 100, wherein each integer deviation either above and below said pre-selected word rate results in a corresponding integer reduction in said word rate score of 100.
9. The system of claim 7 , wherein said clarity score equals a sum of said words having said word recognition confidence metric greater than a pre-selected word recognition confidence metric divided by the total word count.
10. The system of claim 7 , wherein said filler word score equals said filler word count times 100 divided by the total word count.
11. The system of claim 7 , wherein said program is executable to:
serve said presentation associated with said word rate score, said clarity score, said filler word score, and said presentation score from said presentation database to either said computing device;
playback said recorded presentation on said computing device, wherein playback includes:
depiction of a video in a video display area on a display surface associated with said computing device;
generation of audio from a speaker associated with said computing device; and depiction of one or more of said word rate score, said clarity score, said filler word score, and said presentation score in a presentation score display area on said display surface associated with said computing device.
12. The system of claim 7 , wherein said program is further executable to:
associate a grade with said presentation, said grade variably based on one or more of associated said word rate score, said clarity score, said filler word score, and said presentation score; and
retrievably save said recorded presentation associated with said grade in said presentation database accessible by said computing device.
13. The system of claim 7 , further comprising a line chart including a word rate baseline and a word rate line which compares a word rate of said speech to said word rate baseline in a word rate line chart display area.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein said word rate baseline corresponds to a pre-selected word rate which matches a word rate score of 100, and wherein and each integer deviation above and below said pre-selected word rate results in a corresponding integer reduction in said word rate score.
