User interface to media files
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- accessing a media file that stores acoustic data;
determining a mood of the media file based on an analysis of the acoustic data of the media file, the media file being characterized as indicative of the determined mood, the determining of the mood causing incrementation of a count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within a predetermined period of time;
generating a user interface that includes zones among which is a zone whose position in the user interface corresponds to the determined mood, the generating of the user interface including coloring the zone based on the incremented count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within the predetermined period of time, the generating of the user interface being performed by a processor of a machine; and
presenting the user interface that includes the zone whose position corresponds to the mood of the media file, the zone being colored based on the incremented count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within the predetermined time.

Abstract
A user interface generator is configured to access a media file that stores acoustic data representative of sounds. The user interface generator determines a mood category of the media file, based on a mood vector calculated from the acoustic data. The mood category characterizes the media file as being evocative of a mood described by the mood category. The user interface generator generates a user interface that depicts a grid or map (e.g., a “mood grid” or a “mood map”) of multiple zones. One of the zones may occupy a position in the grid or map that corresponds to the mood category. The user interface may then be presented by the user interface generator (e.g., to a user). In the presented user interface, the zone that corresponds to the mood category may be operable (e.g., by the user) to perform one or more actions pertinent to the mood category.

18. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
-
accessing a media file that stores acoustic data; determining a mood of the media file based on an analysis of the acoustic data of the media file, the media file being characterized as indicative of the determined mood, the determining of the mood causing incrementation of a count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within a predetermined period of time; generating a user interface that includes zones among which is a zone whose position in the user interface corresponds to the determined mood, the generating of the user interface including coloring the zone based on the incremented count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within the predetermined period of time; and presenting the user interface that includes the zone whose position corresponds to the mood of the media file, the zone being colored based on the incremented count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within the predetermined time. - View Dependent Claims (19)

20. A system comprising:
-
an access module configured to access a media file that stores acoustic data; a mood module configured to determine a mood of the media file based on an analysis of the acoustic data of the media file, the media file being characterized as indicative of the determined mood, determination of the mood causing incrementation of a count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within a predetermined period of time; a processor configured by a generation module to generate a user interface that includes zones among which is a zone whose position in the user interface corresponds to the determined mood, generation of the user interface including coloring the zone based on the incremented count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within the predetermined period of time; and a presentation module configured to present the user interface that includes the zone whose position corresponds to the mood of the media file the zone being colored based on the incremented count of media files characterized as indicative of the determined mood within the predetermined time. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
