A method and system is provided for detecting occurrences of semantic temporal events based on observations extracted from input data and event models. The input data is fed into the system from some data source. Based on specified event to be detected, multiple-layer models corresponding to the event are retrieved. The models are used to determine the types of temporal observations to be extracted from the input data. The extracted temporal observations are then used, in combination with the multiple-layer models of the event, to detect the occurrences of the event.

Method and system for detecting semantic events

A method of and a system for collecting, data about an event and describing the event, which for example, might be an entertainment event, a sports event, or a political event. Identifying characteristics of the event, characteristics of types of data about the event, and a record of the event are acquired by a description generator. A person wishing to view a particular type of data utilizes an interactive receiver to select the type of data, and characteristics of the selected type of data within the record of the event are located so as to locate data of the selected type. The located data are then collected and displayed. By storing characteristics of different types of segments that occur in the event, a viewer can select segments of a particular type for viewing. Characteristics of the selected type of segments are then located within the record of the event so as to locate segments of the selected type, and the located segments are then displayed.
