User-Wise Image Playing Rate Extraction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current image platforms primarily provide viewer count information without user-specific data, making it difficult to track which sections of an image are played by specific viewers or which users are playing the image, especially in real-time and recorded broadcasts.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for providing user-wise playing rate information by receiving a target image request signal, transmitting the image based on specified standards, obtaining state and playing information from user terminals, and generating user-specific playing rate data for real-time and stored images, including accumulated playing rate information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If only viewer count information is provided, then platform simplicity is maintained, but user-specific data availability is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts user-specific playing rate information from the broader viewer count data by identifying individual users who have played images and calculating their specific playing rates. This extraction enables user-specific data availability while maintaining the simplicity of the overall platform architecture.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary data structure that tracks user playing information without requiring complex user authentication or identification systems. The intermediary mechanism enables collection of user-specific data through simple playing rate calculations based on image request signals.
2Productivity
If real-time image transmission is provided, then user engagement is improved, but data processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies partial action by processing data only for users who have actually played images, rather than tracking all potential users. This selective processing reduces computational complexity while maintaining accurate user engagement metrics for the relevant user population.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-service data processing by automatically calculating playing rates based on image request signals without requiring external analysis. The server autonomously processes user playing information and provides aggregated data, reducing the need for complex external data processing systems.
3Loss of information
If user information is collected for analysis, then user-centered data availability is improved, but information security requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the necessary playing rate information from user data without collecting or storing sensitive user identifiers. This extraction approach enables user-centered data analysis while minimizing information security risks by working with aggregated, anonymized playing rate data rather than raw user information.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms detailed user information into playing rate parameters, changing the data representation from sensitive user identifiers to aggregated statistical parameters. This parameter transformation enables user-centered analysis while enhancing information security by eliminating the need to store or transmit sensitive user data.

AI summary
Provided are a method and apparatus for providing image playing rate information. The method including receiving, from a user terminal, a target image request signal, transmitting, to the user terminal, a target image in a first state or the target image in a second state, based on whether the target image request signal satisfies a specified standard, obtaining, from the user terminal, state information and image playing information of the target image for each specified time, and providing user-wise playing rate information of the target image, based on the state information and image playing information of the target image may be provided.
