Abstract

The system generates a recommendation of content for use in collaboration, allowing relevant content to be used as base content. The system identifies a content item, and retrieves reviews for the content item from one or more sources or forums. The system filters the reviews to generate a reduced set of reviews based on text of the respective reviews, profile information associated with the reviews, and reference information. A recommendation metric is determined for the content item based on the reduced set of reviews and based on the one or more recommendation criteria. The recommendation criteria specify which aspects of the content impact recommendation, and how those aspects impact recommendation. The recommendation metric indicates whether the content item is recommended as base content, to be used for generating collaborative content. The system generates a recommendation indicator indicative of the recommendation metric, and outputs the indicator for display, storage, or both.

Claims (54)

1. A method comprising:

identifying a base content;

identifying, using control circuitry, a plurality of collaborative content, wherein each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises the base content modified by an additional content;

determining, using the control circuitry, for each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content, a recommendation metric based at least in part on one or more signal properties of the collaborative content and based at least in part on profile information of the collaborative content;

filtering, using the control circuitry, the plurality of collaborative content based on:

1) the recommendation metrics of the plurality of collaborative content, and

2) the profile information associated with each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content;

generating a recommendation indicator based on the recommendation metrics and the profile information; and

generating for output, using control circuitry, the recommendation indicator.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the base content comprises base audio content, and wherein each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises collaborative audio content.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the base content comprises base video content, and wherein each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises collaborative video content.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the recommendation metric of each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises, for each collaborative content:

analyzing the collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content to determine one or more metrics corresponding to the one or more signal properties of the collaborative content; and

comparing the one or more metrics to a one or more reference metrics to generate the recommendation metric for the collaborative content.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising determining the one or more reference metrics that correspond to the one or more base signal properties of the base content.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the recommendation metric of each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises, for each collaborative content:

determining a first rating associated with the base content;

determining a second rating associated with the collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content; and

comparing the first rating and the second rating to generate the recommendation metric for the collaborative content.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the recommendation metric of each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises, for each collaborative content:

determining a first format associated with the base content;

determining a second format associated with the collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content; and

comparing the first format and the second format to generate the recommendation metric for the collaborative content.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the base content comprises base audio content, wherein each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises collaborative audio content, and wherein the one or more signal properties comprise at least one selected from the group comprising pitch, octave, tone, tempo, key, harmony, rhythm, volume, and modulation.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, at a user interface, a user input indicative of a first collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content, wherein identifying the first collaborative content comprises identifying the first collaborative content based on the user input.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein generating for output the recommendation indicator comprises storing the recommendation indicator in metadata associated with each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content.

11. A system comprising:

a display device; and

control circuitry coupled to the display device, and configured to:

identify a base content;

identify, using control circuitry, a plurality of collaborative content, wherein each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises the base content modified by an additional content;

determine, using the control circuitry, for each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content, a recommendation metric based at least in part on one or more signal properties of the collaborative content and based at least in part on profile information of the collaborative content;

filter, using the control circuitry, the plurality of collaborative content based on:

1) the recommendation metrics of the plurality of collaborative content, and

2) the profile information associated with each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content;

generate a recommendation indicator based on the recommendation metrics and the profile information; and

generate for output, using control circuitry, the recommendation indicator.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the base content comprises base audio content, and wherein each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises collaborative audio content.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the base content comprises base video content, and wherein each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises collaborative video content.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to determine the recommendation metric of each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content by, for each collaborative content:

analyzing the collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content to determine one or more metrics corresponding to the one or more signal properties of the collaborative content; and

comparing the one or more metrics to a one or more reference metrics to generate the recommendation metric for the collaborative content.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to determine the one or more reference metrics that correspond to the one or more base signal properties of the base content.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to determine the recommendation metric of each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content by, for each collaborative content:

determining a first rating associated with the base content;

determining a second rating associated with the collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content; and

comparing the first rating and the second rating to generate the recommendation metric for the collaborative content.

17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to determine the recommendation metric of each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content by, for each collaborative content:

determining a first format associated with the base content;

determining a second format associated with the collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content; and

comparing the first format and the second format to generate the recommendation metric for the collaborative content.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein the base content comprises base audio content, wherein each collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises collaborative audio content, and wherein the one or more signal properties comprise at least one selected from the group comprising pitch, octave, tone, tempo, key, harmony, rhythm, volume, and modulation.

19. The system of claim 11 , further comprising a user interface coupled to the control circuitry and configured to receive user input, wherein the control circuitry is further configured to identify collaborative content of the plurality of collaborative content comprises identifying a first collaborative content based on the user input.
