Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video technologies cannot generate an essence video that captures the most critical parts of a movie or teleplay, leading to user dissatisfaction due to long plots and dragged-down storytelling.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that acquire a plot keyword, a first plot fragment corresponding to the keyword, and a second plot fragment with high heat meeting a preset condition, generating an essence video by stitching these fragments to create a condensed, engaging video experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If a video is played at multi-times of speed, then the video playing speed is doubled and the video content played is still a complete video content, but the user cannot acquire an essence video of the movie/teleplay

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo playing speedVSAvoidessence video content
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the video content into multiple plot fragments based on plot keywords extracted from the plot introduction. Each fragment corresponds to a specific plot point, allowing the system to selectively assemble only the most important segments into an essence video, rather than playing the complete video at high speed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts key plot fragments from the complete video based on plot keywords and heat metrics. By taking out only the essential plot segments that contribute to the main storyline, the system creates a condensed essence video that preserves critical information while eliminating redundant content.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Ease of operation

If all video fragments including a certain actor's shot are played, then the user can watch the actor's performance, but the video content played includes non-essential fragments that do not include the actor's shot

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewatching convenience for specific actorVSAvoidtime spent on non-essence video
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by differentiating between essential and non-essential video fragments based on plot keywords and heat metrics. The system identifies and prioritizes fragments containing specific actors or plot points while filtering out redundant content, allowing users to efficiently watch only the relevant portions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Device complexity

If the essence video includes only plot fragments from the plot introduction, then the video structure is simple, but the video lacks heat content and user engagement

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo structure complexityVSAvoiduser engagement and heat content
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms by using heat metrics and user interaction data to evaluate and select plot fragments. The system analyzes user engagement patterns and adjusts the selection of fragments to maximize heat content and user engagement, creating a dynamic optimization process that balances structure and engagement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

The present disclosure provides a method, an apparatus, and a device for generating an essence video, and a storage medium. The method includes: acquiring a plot keyword in a plot introduction of a movie and a television play; acquiring a first plot fragment corresponding to the plot keyword according to the plot keyword; acquiring a second plot fragment with a heat meeting a preset condition, the second plot fragment being different from the first plot fragment; and generating an essence video according to the first plot fragment and the second plot fragment. The present disclosure can acquire an essence video which is stitched naturally, developed logically and includes a plot fragment with higher heat.
