Systems and methods for dynamically creating hyperlinks associated with relevant multimedia content
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for dynamically creating hyperlinks associated with relevant multimedia content in a computer network. A hyperlink generation module receives an electronic text file from a server. The module searches the text file to identify keywords present in the file. Once the keywords have been identified, a database is queried to identify multimedia content that is related to the keywords. Generally, multimedia content is associated with metadata to enable efficient searching of the multimedia content. Typically, the multimedia content is contextually relevant to both the identified keywords and text file. One or more hyperlinks corresponding to the keywords are then generated and inserted into the text file. The hyperlinks provide pointers to the identified multimedia content. After insertion into the text file, the hyperlinks may be clicked by a user or viewer of the file to retrieve and display the identified multimedia content.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, at a server via a network, a request from an electronic device to display a webpage;
accessing, by the server via the network, a list of predefined keywords in response to receiving the request to display the webpage, wherein the list of predefined keywords is generated based on crawling external sources to extract keywords of relevance;
accessing, by the server via the network, the webpage to dynamically identify a relevant keyword on the webpage, wherein the dynamically identified relevant keyword is automatically identified based on one or more of a weight assigned to the relevant keyword or the list of predefined keywords that is generated based on crawling the external sources;
querying, by the server via the network, an external content database server based on the dynamically identified relevant keyword to identify content related to the dynamically identified relevant keyword based on metadata associated with the content, wherein the server is a separate device from the external content database server; and
modifying, by the server via the network, HTML code associated with the webpage such that the dynamically identified relevant keyword is selectable, wherein selection of the dynamically identified relevant keyword causes the electronic device to display a plurality of hyperlinks, wherein selection of a hyperlink, from the plurality of hyperlinks, causes the electronic device to display content of the content related to the dynamically identified relevant keyword associated with the selected hyperlink, wherein the server, the external content database server, and the electronic device are separate and distinct devices.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, the displaying of the plurality of hyperlinks comprises displaying the plurality of hyperlinks as a pop-up window overlaid over display of the webpage on the electronic device.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selection of the dynamically identified relevant keyword causes the electronic device to redirect to another webpage that lists the plurality of hyperlinks.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of hyperlinks are associated with a plurality of videos that are contextually related to the dynamically identified relevant keyword.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, generating, by the server via the network, an electronic text file and coding the hyperlink into the electronic text file.
6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising, ranking, by the server via the network, the each hyperlink of the plurality of hyperlinks, based on their relevance to the content of the electronic text file.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the each hyperlink of the plurality of hyperlinks is associated with a video; and videos that are relevant to both the dynamically identified relevant keyword and an overall context of the electronic text file are ranked higher than videos that are not relevant to both the dynamically identified relevant keyword and the overall context of the electronic text file.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the plurality of hyperlinks further comprises displaying a clickable icon for the each hyperlink of the plurality of hyperlinks.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the clickable icon is displayed as thumbnail representation of a video.
10. The method of claim 4 , wherein each video from the plurality of videos are relevant to both the dynamically identified relevant keyword and a context of an electronic text file that includes the dynamically identified relevant keyword.
11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, determining, by the server via the network, relevancy of the dynamically identified relevant keyword based on its contextual relevancy to a content of an electronic text file.
12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weight assigned to the relevant keyword is based on a frequency of appearance of the relevant keyword within the webpage, wherein a relevant keyword with a lesser frequency of appearance is assigned a higher weight than a relevant keyword with a higher frequency of appearance.
13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the external sources from which the list of predefined keywords is generated are not previously associated with the webpage.
14. A system comprising:
a memory; and
control circuitry configured to:
receive, at a server via a network, a request from an electronic device to display a webpage;
access, by the server via the network, a list of predefined keywords in response to receiving the request to display the webpage, wherein the list of predefined keywords is generated based on crawling external sources to extract keywords of relevance;
access, by the server via the network, the webpage from the memory to dynamically identify a relevant keyword on the webpage, wherein the dynamically identified relevant keyword is automatically identified based on one or more of a weight assigned to the relevant keyword or the list of predefined keywords that is generated based on crawling the external sources;
query, by the server via the network, an external content database server based on the dynamically identified relevant keyword to identify content related to the dynamically identified relevant keyword based on metadata associated with the content, wherein the server is a separate device from the external content database server;
modify, by the server via the network, HTML code associated with the webpage such that the dynamically identified relevant keyword is selectable, wherein selection of the dynamically identified relevant keyword causes the electronic device to display a plurality of hyperlinks, wherein selection of a hyperlink, from the plurality of hyperlinks, causes the electronic device to display content of the content related to the dynamically identified relevant keyword associated with the selected hyperlink, wherein the server, the external content database server, and the electronic device are separate and distinct devices.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein, the displaying of the plurality of hyperlinks comprises, the control circuitry configured to display the plurality of hyperlinks as a pop-up window overlaid over display of the webpage on the electronic device.
16. The system of claim 14 , wherein the selection of the dynamically identified relevant keyword causes the electronic device to redirect to another webpage that lists the plurality of hyperlinks.
17. The system of claim 14 , further comprising, the control circuitry configured to generate, by the server via the network, an electronic text file and coding the hyperlink into the electronic text file.
18. The system of claim 17 , further comprising, ranking, by the server via the network, the each hyperlink of the plurality of hyperlinks, based on their relevance to content of the electronic text file.
19. The system of claim 18 , wherein, the each hyperlink is associated with a video; and videos that are relevant to both the dynamically identified relevant keyword and an overall context of the electronic text file are ranked higher by the control circuitry than videos that are not relevant to both the dynamically identified relevant keyword and the overall context of the electronic text file.
20. The system of claim 14 , further comprising, the control circuitry configured to determine, by the server via the network, relevancy of the dynamically identified relevant keyword based on its contextual relevancy to content of an electronic text file.
