AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing short video loading algorithms cannot effectively optimize download costs and meet user viewing experience, especially when there are many videos. The traditional sequential loading method cannot improve the user viewing experience.

Method used

By calculating the probability of subsequent caching of different videos watched by users and combining the prediction results of users' viewing experience from different dimensions, a short video loading algorithm based on playlist status and user experience prediction is designed to comprehensively calculate download demand, optimize the video loading order, and determine the loading priority and order of uncached segments.

Benefits of technology

It improves the accuracy of video loading and user experience, ensuring the smoothness of videos that users intend to watch and meeting their viewing needs.

Abstract

The method comprises: obtaining a video playlist, wherein the video playlist comprises a plurality of target videos, and the plurality of target videos comprise a video being played and at least one candidate video to be played; determining a priority playing probability and a stalling probability corresponding to each unbuffered segment of the plurality of target videos; determining a loading priority corresponding to each unbuffered segment of the plurality of target videos according to the priority playing probability and the stalling probability corresponding to each unbuffered segment of the plurality of target videos; determining a loading order of the unbuffered segments of the plurality of target videos according to the loading priority corresponding to each unbuffered segment of the plurality of target videos, and loading the unbuffered segments of the plurality of target videos in the loading order. The method can better meet the viewing requirements of users and improve user experience.
