Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A method executed by a computer system for determining periods of time in an audio-visual signal encoding an event comprising:
receiving a data representing the audio-visual signal said signal comprised of data representing an audience attending said event;
extracting from the received audio-visual data at least one parameter data corresponding to an at least one time-slice within the audio-visual signal, said at least one parameter data representing a magnitude of heightened emotional state of the audience attending the event that is the subject of the of the audio-visual signal within the corresponding an at least one time slice;
storing in a data structure the at least one parameter data and an at least one time slice value corresponding to the at least one parameter;
determining an at least one time values of heightened interest by calculating a correlation between the extracted at least one parameter data representing a magnitude of heightened emotional state of the audience attending the event that is the subject of the of the audio-visual signal within the corresponding an at least one time slice and an at least one pre-determined parameter data values associated with a heightened audience interest level; and
storing the determined at least one time values in a data structure associated with the received audio-visual signal.
