IEEE Fourth International Symposium on Multimedia Software Engineering (MSE'02) A Per-Object-Granularity Tracking Mechanism for Interactive TV Viewership Estimation and Program Rating Newport Beach, California, USA December 11-December 13 ISBN: 0-7695-1857-5
TV program rating provides television programmers and commercial advertisers an estimate of audience size and composition and are a barometer of peoples? viewing habits. We introduce a digital TV commerce solution powered by HotMedia TV. We propose a method and system for TV audience estimates and program rating using a per-object-granularity tracking mechanism for interactive TV content tracking. The major components of the proposed tracking architecture are an Interactive TV content creation tool, a tracking information delivery framework, an Interactive TV content receiver and tracking servers. Our mechanism enables a broadcast station or a rating agency to automatically perform tracking functions in real time, based on viewer?s action as well as on the content of audiovisual programming.
