Abstract

A content providing method performed by a computing device is provided. The content providing method includes: obtaining preview information on a plurality of sections of target content, the preview information including a keyword group associated with content of a corresponding section, and providing the preview information on the plurality of sections together with the target content.

Claims (36)

1. A content providing method performed by a computing device, the content providing method comprising:

obtaining preview information on a plurality of sections of target content, the preview information including a keyword group having keywords associated with each section of the target content;

displaying the keywords corresponding to the each section on each of the plurality of sections together with the target content;

in response to receiving a selection of a first keyword among keywords displayed in a first section, displaying the first keyword on one area of a screen and identifying both the first section and a second section corresponding to the first keyword displayed on the one area; and

generating and displaying a content of interest in which combines the first section and the second section.

2. The content providing method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of sections are formed by dividing the target content based on a point at which at least one of a speaker, subject, and background image is changed.

3. The content providing method of claim 1 , wherein the providing of the preview information on the plurality of sections together with the target content includes displaying a representative time point for each section of the target content and keywords included in the keyword group.

4. The content providing method of claim 3 , further comprising reproducing content of a section corresponding to a keyword in response to a user input for the keyword among the keywords included in the keyword group displayed for each section.

5. A content providing method performed by a server, the content providing method comprising:

dividing target content into a plurality of sections;

generating and providing preview information on the plurality of divided sections, the preview information including a keyword group having keywords associated with content of a corresponding section;

receiving, from a user terminal, information on a first keyword selected among keywords displayed in a first section of the target content;

identifying both the first section and a second section corresponding to the selected first keyword; and

generating a content of interest in which combines the first section and the second section.

6. The content providing method of claim 5 , wherein the plurality of sections are formed by dividing the target content based on a point at which at least one of a speaker, subject, and background image is changed.

7. The content providing method of claim 5 , wherein the generating and providing of the preview information on the plurality of divided sections includes:

extracting a plurality of sentences from the content of each section;

selecting a representative keyword for each sentence through an analysis based on an artificial intelligence model for the plurality of extracted sentences; and

generating a keyword group for each section of the target content using the selected representative keyword.

8. The content providing method of claim 5 , wherein the generating of the content of interest includes adding a margin section at a start time point and an end time point of each section when combining the content of the section corresponding to the selected first keyword.

9. The content providing method of claim 8 , wherein the adding of the margin section at the start time point and the end time point of each section includes combining the content of each section based on a time point ahead of the start time point of each section by a first time and a time point added by a second time from the end time point of each section.

10. The content providing method of claim 5 , wherein the generating of the content of interest includes generating the content of interest by using a sentence corresponding to each of the selected first keyword among a plurality of sentences extracted from the content of each section.

11. The content providing method of claim 5 , wherein the generating of the content of interest includes generating the content of interest by using sentences of which a degree of similarity with each of the selected first keyword is a reference value or more among a plurality of sentences extracted from the content of each section.

12. The content providing method of claim 5 further comprising storing the generated content of interest, wherein the content of interest 1s set so as not to be downloaded to the user terminal.

13. A content providing device comprising:

a communication unit configured to communicate with an external device;

a display unit configured to display information; and

a control unit configured to:

obtain preview information on a plurality of sections of target content, the preview information including a keyword group having keywords associated with each section of the target content,

to control the display unit to display the keywords corresponding to the each section on each of the plurality of sections together with the target content,

in response to receiving a selection of a first keyword among keywords displayed in a first section, to display the first keyword on one area of a screen and to identify both the first section and a second section corresponding to the first keyword displayed on the one area, and

to generate and display a content of interest in which combines the first section and the second section.

14. The content providing device of claim 13 , wherein when a type of the target content is video, the preview information includes a video thumbnail in each section of the video.

15. The content providing device of claim 13 , wherein when a type of the target content is audio, the preview information includes a pre-listening clip in each section of the audio.

16. The content providing device of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of sections are formed by dividing the target content based on a point at which at least one of a speaker, subject, and background image is changed.

17. The content providing device of claim 13 , wherein the control unit is configured to display a representative time point for each section of the target content and keywords included in the keyword group.
