Abstract
A method and system for computer-based generation of podcast metadata, to facilitate operations such as searching for and recommending podcasts based on the generated metadata. In an example method, a computing system obtains a text representation of a podcast episode and obtains person data defining a list of person names such as celebrity names. The computing system then correlates the person data with the text representation, to find a match between a listed person name a text string in the text representation. Further, the computing system predicts a named-entity span in the text representation and determines that the predicted named-entity span matches a location of the text string in the text representation of the podcast episode, and based on this determination, the computing system generates and outputs metadata that associates the person name with the podcast episode.
