Abstract

A system and method for cognitive media association including a tracking unit configured to track an output of media over time for a particular user and create a list of the output media for the particular user, a link generation unit configured to generate a link between the media and at least one of a person, a place, an event, an era, an emotion, a theme, a photo, a video, or a social media post, an events recording unit configured to create a comprehensive experience of a specific event including at least one of music played at the specific event, photos displayed at the specific event, videos played at the specific event, social media posts about the event, people present at the specific event, or any combinations thereof.

Claims

1. A method for cognitive association, the method comprising:

tracking an output of media experienced at a specific event over time for a particular user;

creating a list of media for the particular user based on the tracked output of media;

obtaining associative data related to the specific event based on the media, the associative data including photos displayed at the specific event and videos played at the specific event;

receiving an input of a particular media;

outputting the particular media;

outputting at least one of the associative data;

suggesting cognitive links to the particular user based on the list of media for the particular user from the specific event;

displaying the associative data and the particular media on a remote device; and

displaying at least one element configured to adjust at least one smooth parameter of the user related to the associative data and the particular media.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the media includes at least one of a song, an image, or a video.

3. The method according to claim 1, further comprising receiving audio tones via a microphone and associating the received audio tones with the media.

4. The method according to claim 1, wherein the associative data is received from an external device.

5. The method according to claim 1, further comprising sharing the associative data with other users.

6. The method according to claim 1, the associative data further includes at least one of social media posts about the specific event or people present at the specific event.

7. A cognitive association media system comprising:

a processor; and

a memory storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the cognitive association media system to;

track an output of media experienced at a specific event over time for a particular user;

create a list of media for the particular user based on the tracked output of media;

obtain associative data related to the specific event based on the media, the associative data including photos displayed at the specific event and videos played at the specific event;

receive an input of a particular media;

output the particular media;

output at least one of the associative data;

suggest cognitive links to the particular user based on the list of media for the particular user from the specific event;

display the associative data and the particular media on a remote device; and

display at least one element configured to adjust at least one smooth parameter of the user related to the associative data and the particular media.

8. The system according to claim 7, wherein the media includes at least one of a song, an image, or a video.

9. The system according to claim 7, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the cognitive association media system to receive audio and associate the received audio with the media.

10. The system according to claim 7, wherein the associative data is received from an external device.

11. The system according to claim 7, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the cognitive association media system to share the associative data with other devices.

12. The system according to claim 7, the associative data further includes at least one of social media posts about the specific event or people present at the specific event.

13. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause a computer to:

track an output of media experienced at a specific event over time for a particular user;

create a list of media for the particular user based on the tracked output of media;

obtain associative data related to the specific event based on the media, the associative data including photos displayed at the specific event and videos played at the specific event;

receive an input of a particular media;

output the particular media;

output at least one of the associative data;

suggest cognitive links to the particular user based on the list of media for the particular user from the specific event;

display the associative data and the particular media on a remote device; and

display at least one element configured to adjust at least one smooth parameter of the user related to the associative data and the particular media.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13, wherein the media includes at least one of a song, an image, or a video.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the computer to receive audio tones via a microphone and associate the received audio tones with the media.

16. The non-transitory computer readable-storage medium according to claim 13, wherein the associative data is received from an external device.
