Abstract

One or more systems and/or techniques are provided for automatic closed captioning for media content. In an example, real-time content, occurring within a threshold timespan of a broadcast of media content (e.g., social network posts occurring during and an hour before a live broadcast of an interview), may be accessed. A list of named entities, occurring within the social network data, may be generated (e.g., Interviewer Jon, Interviewee Kathy, Husband Dave, Son Jack, etc.). A ranked list of named entities may be created based upon trending named entities within the list of named entities (e.g., a named entity may be ranked higher based upon a more frequent occurrence within the social network posts). A dynamic grammar (e.g., library, etc.) may be built based upon the ranked list of named entities. Speech recognition may be performed upon the broadcast of media content utilizing the dynamic grammar to create closed caption text.
