According to one implementation, a system for automating inferential content annotation includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code including a set of rules trained to annotate content inferentially. The hardware processor executes the software code to utilize one or more feature analyzer(s) to apply labels to features detected in the content, access one or more knowledge base(s) to validate at least one of the applied labels, and to obtain, from the knowledge base(s), descriptive data linked to the validated label(s). The software code then infers, using the set of rules, one or more label(s) for the content based on the validated label(s) and the descriptive data, and outputs tags for annotating the content, where the tags include the validated label(s) and the inferred label(s).

A metadata aggregation system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a memory storing a software code including a trained entity matching predictive model trained using training data obtained from a reference database. The hardware processor executes the software code to obtain metadata inputs from multiple sources, conform the metadata inputs to a common format, match, using the trained entity matching predictive model, at least some of the conformed metadata inputs to the same entity, and determine, using the trained entity matching predictive model, a confidence score for each match. The software code further sends a request to one or more human editor(s) for confirmation of each match having a confidence score greater than a first threshold and less than a second threshold, and updates the reference database, in response to receiving a confirmation that at least one match is a confirmed match, to include the confirmed match.

An automated hardware resource optimization system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code. The hardware processor is configured to execute the software code to identify computing hardware for hosting a neural network based application, determine, based on a first performance parameter of the computing hardware, a batch size for performing data processing using the neural network based application, and tune, using a data batch having the determined batch size, a second performance parameter of the computing hardware to enable substantially continuous loading of its hardware processor memory. The software code also optimizes, based on the determined batch size and the tuned second performance parameter, a process flow for performing the data processing, and generates a configuration file identifying the computing hardware, the neural network based application, the determined batch size, the tuned second performance parameter, and the optimized process flow.

According to one implementation, a cloud-based system for performing cloud-based image rendering for video stream enrichment includes a video forwarding unit and a video enrichment unit. The video forwarding unit is configured to detect one or more non-interactive video player(s) linked to the video forwarding unit over a communication network, forward a video stream to the non-interactive video player(s), and forward the video stream to the video enrichment unit. The video enrichment unit is configured to receive the video stream, detect one or more interactive video player(s) linked to the video enrichment unit over the communication network, identify a video enhancement corresponding to one or more customizable video segment(s) in the video stream, insert a rendered video enhancement into the one or more customizable video segment(s) to produce an enriched video stream, and distribute the enriched video stream to one or more of the interactive video player(s).

A content promotion system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a conversational agent software code. The hardware processor executes the conversational agent software code to receive user identification data, obtain user profile data including a content consumption history of a user associated with the user identification data, and identify a first predetermined phrase for use in interacting with the user based on the user profile data. In addition, the conversational agent software code initiates a dialog with the user based on the first predetermined phrase, detects a response or non-response to the dialog, updates the user profile data based on the response or non-response, resulting in updated user profile data, identifies a second predetermined phrase for use in interacting with the user based on the updated user profile data, and continues the dialog with the user based on the second predetermined phrase.
