Abstract

Methods, systems and computer program products that allow for the determination of human presence in a room where content is being presented. The audio that is associated with the content may be captured, along with the audio that is being generated collectively by whatever sources may be in the room including the presentation of the content. Features may be extracted from both the content audio and the room audio. These features may then be compared, and the differences may be quantified. If the differences are significant, then human presence may be inferred.
