Abstract

The present application relates to a system and method for highlight detection, and includes a highlight detection method for detecting highlights of a stream. The method comprises: collecting purchasing information from a user terminal; and detecting the highlight of the stream according to the purchasing information. The purchasing information includes purchasing actions of the user terminal, and the purchasing actions are actions related to purchase of the user terminal. According to the subject application, the highlights may be detected, captured and generated automatically, and the time and efforts for manual work may be saved.

Claims (63)

1 . A method for detecting a highlight of a stream, comprising:

collecting purchasing information from a user terminal; and

detecting a highlight of a stream based on the purchasing information, wherein the purchasing information includes purchasing actions of the user terminal, and the purchasing actions relate to a purchase of the user terminal.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the purchasing actions include actions such as clicking buy button, establishing an order, or finishing payment.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the purchasing information includes corresponding time information of portions of the stream the user terminal watched.

4 . The method according to claim 3 , further comprising:

checking a payment status of the user terminal;

selecting the user terminal who has payment record;

capturing the portions of the stream the user terminal watched; and

detecting the portions of the stream as highlights of the stream.

5 . The method according to claim 3 , further comprising:

collecting purchasing information from plural user terminals,

checking a payment status of the user terminals;

selecting the user terminals who have payment record;

comparing the portions of the stream the user terminals watched;

capturing overlapped portions the user terminals watched; and

detecting the overlapped portions as highlights of the streams.

6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the purchasing information includes pre-purchasing actions and the pre-purchasing actions are actions that show a willingness of the user terminal to make a purchase.

7 . The method according to claim 6 , wherein the pre-purchasing actions include actions such as enlarging a picture of a product, checking a description of a product, adding a product to wishlist, adding a product to favorite, adding a product to shopping cart, or checking available coupons, discount tickets, gift certificates.

8 . The method according to claim 6 , further comprising:

detecting the highlight according to a time point of a purchasing action or pre-purchasing action the user terminal performed.

9 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the stream is related to live streaming such as entertainment shows or online shopping.

10 . The method according to claim 8 , further comprising:

setting a time range with respect to the time point;

capturing portions of the stream according to the time point and the time range; and

detecting the portions of the stream as highlights.

11 . The method according to claim 8 , further comprising:

setting a time offset for the time point;

offsetting the time point to an offset time point;

capturing portions of the stream according to the offset time point; and

detecting the portions of the stream as highlights.

12 . The method according to claim 5 , further comprising:

calculating total scores for each portion; and

detecting the highlights according to the total scores, wherein the total score is a sum of each score from the user terminal, and the scores are decided according to the purchasing information.

13 . The method according to claim 5 , further comprising:

calculating total scores for each portion; and

detecting the highlights according to the total scores, wherein the total score is a weighted sum of each score from the user terminal, the scores are decided according to the purchasing action and pre-purchasing action of the user terminal, and the weights are decided according to transaction data of the user terminal.

14 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

dividing the streams into different portions;

calculating total scores for each portion; and

detecting the highlights according to the total scores.

15 . The method according to claim 14 , further comprising:

ranking the portions of the stream based on the total score; and

detecting the portions above a threshold total score as highlights.

16 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the streaming comprises live streaming, and wherein feedback is collected on a message from the user terminal, the message including content related to the live streaming.

17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the feedback includes an influence action feedback, the influence action feedback comprising a behavior, and the behavior comprising the purchase of the user terminal.

18 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the feedback is provided to a feedback collecting unit, the feedback collecting unit being provided to a determining unit to determine a communication protocol according to the feedback.

19 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the user terminal comprises a determining unit, the determining unit being configured to determine a communication protocol for the user terminal to receive streaming data comprising the streaming.

20 . A system for detecting highlight of a stream, comprising a highlight detection unit configured to perform:

collecting purchasing information from a user terminal; and

detecting the highlight of the stream according to the purchasing information; wherein the purchasing information includes purchasing actions of the user terminal, and the purchasing actions are actions related to purchase of the user terminal.

21 . The system according to claim 20 , wherein the purchasing actions include actions such as clicking buy button, establishing an order, or finishing payment.

22 . The system according to claim 20 , wherein the highlight detection unit is further configured to perform:

checking a payment status of the user terminal;

selecting the user terminal who has payment record;

capturing portions of the stream the user terminal watched; and

detecting the portions of the stream as highlights of the stream.

23 . The highlight detection system according to claim 20 , wherein the highlight detection unit is further configured to perform:

calculating total scores for each portion; and

detecting the highlights according to the total scores, wherein the total score is a weighted sum of each score from the user terminal, the scores are decided according to the purchasing action and pre-purchasing action of the user terminal, and the weights are decided according to transaction data of the user terminal.

24 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform:

collecting purchasing information from a user terminal; and

detecting a highlight of a stream according to the purchasing information; wherein the purchasing information includes purchasing actions of the user terminal, and the purchasing actions are actions related to purchase of the user terminal.
