Abstract

An exemplary method includes a video content analysis system capturing a first set of video frames representative of a first video content instance and a second set of video frames representative of a second video content instance, applying a morphing heuristic to at least one of the first and second sets of video frames to result in the first and second sets of video frames having a common aspect ratio, a common resolution, and a common container, frame synchronizing, subsequent to the applying of the morphing heuristic, the first and second sets of video frames, and performing a comparative analysis of the frame synchronized first and second sets of video frames. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
