Customized highlight shows for sporting events, entertainment events, and/or the like, having a narrative component, are generated and presented. The events can be sporting events, entertainment events, and/or the like. For example, in the context of sporting events, a determination is made as to what types of sports, teams, leagues, players, plays and/or the like are of interest to the user. A customized highlight show is then generated and presented, containing those specific portions of the sporting events that are likely to be of interest, arranged in a manner that is likely to be entertaining and interesting to the user and that presents a cohesive narrative.

Customized generation of highlights show with narrative component

A customized highlight sequence depicting multiple events, and based on a user's personal characteristics, interests, and/or preferences, is generated and presented. The events can be sporting events, entertainment events, and/or the like. For example, in the context of sporting events, a determination is made as to what types of sports, teams, leagues, players, plays, and/or the like are of interest to the user. In at least one embodiment, the amount of time available to the user can be obtained, so that the length of the highlight sequence can be tailored to the available time. A customized highlight sequence is then generated and presented, containing those specific portions of the sporting events that are likely to be of interest, arranged in a manner that is likely to be entertaining to the user and comports with the time restrictions.

Generating a customized highlight sequence depicting an event

A data processing system automatically generates excitement levels with improved response times using prospective data. One embodiment includes accessing data that provides state information for an event at different times during the event, automatically generating a plurality of excitement levels based on the accessed data, and reporting the generated excitement levels. Each of the excitement levels of the plurality of excitement levels corresponds to a different sample time during the event. For each sample time, the generating of the plurality of excitement levels comprises calculating an excitement level based on accessed data prior in time to the sample time and accessed data subsequent in time to the sample time.

Data processing system for automatically generating excitement levels with improved response times using prospective data

A live performance is monitored by analyzing an input data stream comprising real-time updates related to the live performance. Different sets of excitement levels, excitement curves, alerts and teasers are generated based on the analysis and reported to a plurality of subscribers using any of a variety of mobile communication and/or computing devices.
