A system for generating video clips includes a video processing system configured to receive computer vision (CV) output data, which includes optical character recognition (OCR) text of graphics from a video, time codes for the OCR text of the graphics, and ontology classifiers for the OCR text. The video processing system includes a file storage and database system configured to store the video, and to store the CV output data according to an ontology associated with the ontology classifiers. A CV moments module of the video processing system is configured to identify themes contained in the CV output data using the ontology classifiers, the ontology, and natural language processing (NLP), and to identify time codes associated with the identified themes. A video clip generator of the video processing system is configured to generate video clips of the video based on the identified time codes.

Derivative media content systems and methods

A system for generating video clips includes a video processing system configured to receive a video file from a video capture system, and to create video clips based on significant moments identified in the video file. The video processing system includes a file storage and database system configured to store the video file, and storing an ontology and keywords associated with themes that are pertinent to the overall theme of the video file. The video processing system also includes a natural language processing (NLP) moments module configured to identify themes contained in the video file using the ontology and the keywords, and to identify time codes associated with the identified themes. The video processing system also includes a video clip generator configured to generate video clips based on the identified time codes.

Provided is a method for controlling output of a function in response to media content, the method comprising obtaining function information from another party, the function information comprising a content trigger and information related to a particular function associated with the content trigger, receiving the media content when it is reproduced by an external output device, and causing an external terminal to perform the particular function when the content trigger is included in the reproduced media content.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to testing policy changes associated with a production network. A virtual network that represents at least a portion of the production network can be generated. A first transaction log based on a first execution of the virtual network using test traffic and a first set of policies that are implemented in the production network can be obtained. A second transaction log based on a second execution of the virtual network using the test traffic and a second set of policies to be implemented in the production network can be obtained. Based on a comparison of the first and second transaction logs, it can be determined whether the second set of policies has a desired effect in the virtual network.

Virtualized policy tester

The invention comprises a method and apparatus for adjusting a distribution schedule controlling distribution of network device configuration changes associated with a plurality of network devices. Specifically, the method comprises determining a distribution status of the distribution of network device configuration changes, comparing the distribution status to the distribution schedule, and adjusting the distribution schedule in response to a difference between the distribution schedule and the distribution status.

Method and apparatus for adjusting a network device configuration change distribution schedule

A system and method for providing a virtual implementation of a large scale network of devices. The invention emulates an entire network of network devices using the configuration information obtained from the actual devices to meet the needs of testing configuration changes across the entire network.
