Abstract:
Methods and apparatus to identify media content using temporal signal characteristics are disclosed. An example method includes generating a reference signature based on a reference signal corresponding to known media, generating sums based on peaks in a media signal corresponding to media, identifying signal peaks based on the generated sums, generating a second signature based on normalized curve features, wherein the normalized curve features respectively correspond to the identified signal peaks at a corresponding temporal locations of the corresponding signal peak, and determining whether the media signal corresponds to the reference signal based on a comparison of the reference signature and the second signature.

Claim (Index 2):
An apparatus comprising:\n a peak detector to detect peaks of a sensed media signal during time intervals and to output absolute values of the detected peaks; a summer to generate interval sums respective to the time intervals based on the absolute values; a peak identifier to identify second peaks based on the interval sums; and a feature generator to generate and output a signature representative of the media signal, the signature including normalized curve features based on the second peaks, at least one of the peak detector, the summer, the peak identifier or the feature generator implemented with hardware or at least one processor.
