METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION BASED ON LOGO INCLUDED IN DIGITAL CONTENTS
First Claim
1. A method for providing information on at least one logogram included in at least one digital content, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) detecting an image of a logogram from a digital content, the logogram being a symbol, word(s), any other graphical image, or combination thereof that represents an identity of a producer, content distributor or broadcasting network of the digital content;
(b) comparing the detected logogram with a plurality of logograms stored in a logogram database to determine a match therebetween, the logogram database storing the logograms and profile information of the content producer, content distributor or broadcasting network associated with the plurality of logograms;
(c) extracting information on a content producer, content distributor or broadcasting network associated with a logogram stored in the logogram database if similarity between the detected logogram and the logogram stored in the logogram database exceeds a predetermined reference value; and
(d) associating at least a portion of the extracted information on the content producer, content distributor or broadcasting network, with the digital content as attribute information of the digital content.

Abstract
There are provided a method and a system for detecting a logogram from a digital content, recognizing the detected logogram, and providing a user with a variety of information associated with the logogram. In detail, the method and the system acquire a plurality of logograms associated with digital content producers, store the acquired logograms in a logogram database, compare the detected logogram with the logograms stored in the logogram database, determine whether the detected logogram matches any one of the logograms stored in the logogram database, and provide information to the user viewing the digital content or information on the content distribution to the corresponding digital content producer based on the logogram if the detected logogram matches at least one specific logogram stored in the logogram database.

14. A system for providing information on at least one logogram included in at least one digital content, the system comprising:
-
a logogram database for storing a plurality of logograms and information on content producers, content distributors or broadcasting networks associated with the logograms, the logogram being a symbol, word(s), any other graphical image, or combination thereof that represent an identity of a producer, content distributor or broadcasting network of the digital content; a logogram detection unit configured for detecting an image of a logogram from a digital content by analyzing at least one frame included in the digital content; a logogram matching unit configured for comparing the detected logogram with the logograms stored in the logogram database and for determining a match therebetween; and a tagging unit configured, if similarity between the detected logogram and a logogram stored in the logogram database exceeds a predetermined reference value, for associating the digital content with at least a portion of information on a content producer, content distributor or broadcasting network of the digital content as attribute information of the digital content. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22, 24, 26, 27)

28. One or more computer-readable media having stored thereon a computer program that, when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform acts including:
-
detecting an image of a logogram from a digital content, the logogram being a symbol, word(s), any other graphical image, or combination thereof that represents an identity of a producer, content distributor or broadcasting network of the digital content; comparing the detected logogram with a plurality of logograms stored in a logogram database to determine a match therebetween, the logogram database storing the logograms and profile information of the content producer, content distributor or broadcasting network associated with the plurality of logograms; extracting information on a content producer, content distributor or broadcasting network associated with a logogram stored in the logogram database if similarity between the detected logogram and the logogram stored in the logogram database exceeds a predetermined reference value; and associating at least a portion of the extracted information on the content producer, content distributor or broadcasting network, with the digital content as attribute information.
