Patent ID: 10509965

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and media for analyzing spherical video content are provided. More particularly, methods, systems, and media for detecting two-dimensional videos placed on a sphere in abusive spherical video content by tiling the sphere are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: receiving an identifier of a spherical video content item, wherein the spherical video content item has a plurality of views and wherein the spherical video content item is encoded into a plurality of two-dimensional video frames; selecting a first frame of the plurality of two-dimensional video frames associated with the spherical video content item; dividing the first frame into a plurality of tiles spanning the first frame of the spherical video content item; calculating, for each tile of the plurality of tiles, a probability that the tile includes content of a particular type of content; determining, for each tile, whether the probability exceeds a predetermined threshold; in response to determining, for a particular tile, that the probability exceeds the predetermined threshold, causing the content associated with the tile to be analyzed using a video fingerprinting technique; and in response to determining, using the video fingerprinting technique, that the content associated with the tile matches a reference content item of a plurality of reference content items, generating an indication of the match in association with the identifier of the spherical video content item.
