Providing context aware video searching

Abstract:

This disclosure relates to methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems that can generate a context-aware-video-progress bar including a video-scene-proportionate timeline with time-interval sections sized according to relative scene proportions within time intervals of a video. In some implementations, for instance, the disclosed systems determine relative proportions of scenes within a video across time intervals of the video and generate a video-scene-proportionate timeline comprising time-interval sections sized proportionate to the relative proportions of scenes across the time intervals. By integrating the video-scene-proportionate timeline within a video-progress bar, the disclosed systems generate a context-aware-video-progress bar for a video. Such a context-aware-video-progress bar can facilitate more precise and intelligent scrubbing through a video, a dynamic graphical user interface for navigating within and identifying frames of the video, and a flexible user-friendly tool for quickly identifying scenes.
