Content analysis apparatus
First Claim
1. A content analysis apparatus, comprising:
- a video processor capable receiving multimedia and at least one of coding and decoding the multimedia content using processing parameters to generate processed multimedia content;
a system for content analysis, connected to the video processor receive said processing parameters from the video processor, said processing parameters being separate from said processed multimedia content;
said processing parameters being generated as a result of the at least one of coding and decoding the multimedia content; and
said system for content analysis being conceived to generate content descriptors representative for the multimedia content, responsively to said processing parameters used in the at least one of the coding and the encoding of the multimedia, wherein said processing parameters include at least one of an image format, luminance and luminance variation of the processed multimedia content.

Abstract
An apparatus for content indexing uses processing parameters that become available while processing multimedia content. One embodiment of this processing includes compression. A video processor receives multimedia content and generates processed multimedia content. A system for content analysis receives processing parameters from the video processor, where the processing parameters are separate from the processed multimedia content and are generated as a result of processing the multimedia content. The system for content analysis generates content descriptors representative for the multimedia content, responsively to the processing parameters generated during or while processing, e.g., encoding or decoding, the multimedia content.
