Abstract
A method for flagging advertisement frames for automatic content recognition is provided. The method includes receiving broadcast fingerprints indicative of broadcast frames of a media stream comprising a series of broadcast scenes. The method also includes receiving advertisement fingerprints indicative of ad frames of ad scenes. The method further includes determining a scene change between a first broadcast scene and a second broadcast scene. The scene change is based on a Pearson correlation coefficient between an initial broadcast fingerprint of an initial broadcast frame of the second broadcast scene and a last broadcast fingerprint of a last broadcast frame of the first broadcast scene. The method also further includes determining whether the second broadcast scene is one of the ad scenes. When the second broadcast scene is one of the ad scenes, the method associates an identification of the second broadcast scene as the one of the ad scenes.
