Abstract

Methods and systems are described for providing content, such as a movie, with dialogue including a quotation that was input. For example, using a voice search a viewer may input a quotation famous from a movie to find the original fil and related content. The methods and systems use a quotation engine in a digital device to receive an input including the quotation and access a plurality of content items that include dialogue. The quotation engine identifies a subset of content items that include dialogue similar to the input quotation. The quotation engine accesses metadata of each of the subset of content, ranks the subset based on predetermined criteria and the metadata, and provides the ranked subset of the plurality of content items for consumption. The quotation engine may use a graphical user interface to identify the earliest release, trending content, or the program best known for the quote.

Claims (43)

1. A method comprising:

receiving an input, the input including a quotation;

identifying an accurate version of the quotation and a misquote version of the quotation;

accessing a plurality of content items, each content item including dialogue;

identifying a first subset of the plurality of content items, each of the first subset of the plurality of content items including at least one portion of dialogue substantially similar to the accurate version of the quotation;

identifying a second subset of the plurality of content items, each of the second subset of the plurality of content items including at least one portion of dialogue substantially similar to the misquote version of the quotation;

determining a selected subset by selecting one of the first subset or the second subset based on user profile information associated with the input;

accessing metadata of each content item of the selected subset;

identifying a third subset of content items from the selected subset, the third subset comprising a content item of the selected subset for one or more of the following predetermined criteria: first use, frequency of use in dialogue, trending use, sequel use, use within a series, use within a shared universe, and parody use; and

causing to be provided for display, user interface elements for each of the third subset of content items with a description for each corresponding predetermined criterion.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the causing to be provided for display further comprises generating a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface providing the third subset of content items and the description indicating the corresponding predetermined criteria for each.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying the first subset and the identifying the second subset are based on metadata comprising closed captions or lyrics.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the input is received as a voice input.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined trending use includes appearances of the quotation in social media.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying the third subset of content items from the selected subset comprises:

determining a relevance score for each content item of the selected subset based on the user profile information; and

identifying the third subset of content items based on the relevance score for each content item.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined criteria includes latest release.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined criteria further includes at least one genre.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the genre is comedy.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the genre is action.

11. A system comprising:

input/output circuitry configured to receive an input, the input including the quotation;

processing circuitry configured to:

identify an accurate version of the quotation and a misquote version of the quotation;

access a plurality of content items, each content item including dialogue;

identify a first subset of the plurality of content items, each of the first subset of the plurality of content items including at least one portion of dialogue substantially similar to the accurate version of the quotation;

identify a second subset of the plurality of content items, each of the second subset of the plurality of content items including at least one portion of dialogue substantially similar to the misquote version of the quotation;

determine a selected subset by selecting one of the first subset of the second subset based on user profile information associated with the input;

access metadata of each content item of the selected subset;

identify a third subset of content items from the selected subset, the third subset comprising a content item of the selected subset for one or more of the following predetermined criteria: first use, frequency of use in dialogue, trending use, sequel use, use within a series, use within a shared universe, and parody use; and

cause to be provided for display, user interface elements for each of the third subset of content items with a description for each corresponding predetermined criterion.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the processing circuitry configured to cause to be provided for display the user interface elements further comprises generating a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface providing the third subset of content items and the description indicating the corresponding predetermined criteria for each.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the identifying the first subset and the identifying the second subset is based on metadata comprising closed captions or lyrics.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the input/output circuitry is further configured to receive the input as a voice input.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the trending use criteria includes appearances of the quotation in social media.

16. The system of claim 11 , the processing circuitry configured to identify the third subset of content items from the selected subset comprises:

determining a relevance score for each content item of the selected subset based on the user profile information; and

identifying the third subset of content items based on the relevance score for each content item.

17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the predetermined criteria includes latest release.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein the predetermined criteria further includes at least one genre.

19. The system of claim 18 , wherein the genre is comedy.

20. The system of claim 18 , wherein the genre is action.
