This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240223858 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING A RECOMMENDATION OF A MEDIA ASSET FOR SIMULTANEOUS CONSUMPTION WITH A CURRENT MEDIA ASSET

The patent application describes systems and methods for recommending a second media asset to a user while they are consuming a first media asset, based on their viewing history.

  • The systems determine the user is watching a video of a first media asset and identify a category for it.
  • They retrieve the user's viewing history, which includes media assets consumed alongside the first category.
  • A second category with the highest number of media assets in the viewing history is selected.
  • A second media asset is chosen based on this second category, or the user can manually select it.
  • The audio of the second media asset is generated for simultaneous consumption with the video of the first media asset.

Potential Applications: - Personalized content recommendations for streaming platforms - Enhanced user engagement and retention in media consumption platforms

Problems Solved: - Providing relevant content recommendations based on user preferences - Increasing user satisfaction and interaction with media platforms

Benefits: - Improved user experience through tailored content suggestions - Increased user engagement and time spent on media platforms

Commercial Applications: Title: Personalized Content Recommendation System for Media Platforms This technology can be utilized by streaming services, social media platforms, and online content providers to enhance user experience and increase user retention.
