1. A method, comprising:
- selecting, in at least one computing device, a portion of video content, wherein the portion is standardized and corresponds to an area of pixels in which at least a threshold number of the pixels embody a characteristic;
using the characteristic embodied in the portion of the video content to generate a data representation of the portion of the video content, the data representation being used to provide heuristic data; and
processing the heuristic data to generate a fingerprint configured to compare one or more stored fingerprints associated with other video content.

Abstract
Surrogate heuristic identification is described, including selecting a portion of video content, wherein the portion is standardized, identifying a characteristic associated with the video content, using the characteristic to generate a data representation, the data representation being used to provide heuristic data, and processing the heuristic data to generate a fingerprint configured to compare against one or more stored fingerprints associated with other video content.

20. A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising computer instructions for:
-
selecting a portion of video content, wherein the portion is standardized and corresponds to an area of pixels in which at least a threshold number of the pixels embody a characteristic; using the characteristic embodied in the portion of the video content to generate a data representation of the portion of the video content, the data representation being used to provide heuristic data; and processing the heuristic data to generate a fingerprint configured to compare against one or more stored fingerprints associated with other video content.
