Abstract
Methods and apparatus for facilitating video search are disclosed. An example method includes identifying a video, matching the video to a sporting event, and fetching additional information associated with the sporting event. The additional information identifies an athlete associated with the sporting event. The method further includes augmenting a search index entry for the video based at least in part on the additional information associated with the sporting event, and weighting matches to index terms using the additional information differently than matches based on a description of the sporting event.
