Methods for identifying audio or video content
First Claim
1. A system associated with an online content distribution site, comprising:
- an input to receive user uploaded audio or visual content, the user uploaded audio or visual content having been uploaded by a user to the online content distribution site for distribution from the online content distribution site to the public;
one or more memory modules storing data representing a universe of reference content associated with the online content distribution site;
one or more processors programmed for;
i. generating query fingerprint data from data associated with the user uploaded audio or visual content;
ii. determining candidate reference content, from the data representing the universe of reference content, that is a possible match of the user uploaded audio or visual content, in which the possible match comprises a non-identical match between the candidate reference content and the user uploaded audio or visual content, said determining being based on the query fingerprint data;
iii. providing a computer controlled interface associated with the online content distribution site through which a queue is obtained, the queue for review by a first party, the queue providing access to the candidate reference content and the user uploaded audio or visual content;
iv. soliciting through the computer controlled interface an indication from the first party, the indication confirming whether the uploaded audio or audio content corresponds to the candidate reference content;
v. in response to the soliciting, obtaining the indication through the computer controlled interface;
vi. controlling distribution of the user uploaded audio or visual content from the online content distribution site to the public based on the indication, in which the user uploaded audio or visual content remains publically accessible on the online content distribution site pending receipt of the indication; and
vii. in response to the indication, updating the data representing the universe of reference content with the query fingerprint data to more quickly enable future recognition of the user uploaded audio or visual content without review by the first party.

Abstract
The disclosed technology generally relates to methods for identifying audio and video entertainment content. One claim recites network server comprising: an input for receiving data representing audio uploaded to said network server; memory for storing the data representing audio; one or more processors configured for processing the data representing audio to yield fingerprint data; memory for storing fingerprint data; one or more processors configured for: determining whether the fingerprint data incurs a potential match with the stored fingerprint data, the potential match indicating an unreliability in the match below a predetermined threshold; and issuing a call, upon a condition of unreliability in the match, requesting at least a first reviewer and a second reviewer to review the data representing audio; an interface for receiving results from the first reviewer and results from the second reviewer; and one or more processors configured for weighting results from the first reviewer differently than results from the second reviewer, and determining whether to allow public access to the data representing audio based at least in part on weighted results. Of course other combinations and claims are provided.

8. A method comprising:
-
obtaining uploaded visual or audio content, the uploaded visual or audio content having been uploaded to an online service for distribution from the online service to the public; deriving query fingerprint data from the uploaded visual or audio content, said deriving query fingerprint data being performed by a configured computer system; determining candidate reference content, from a universe of reference content, that is a possible match of the uploaded visual or audio content, in which the possible match comprises a non-identical match between the candidate reference content and the uploaded visual or audio content, said determining being based on the query fingerprint data and being performed by a configured computer system; receiving an indication from a first party through an interface associated with the online service, the indication confirming that the uploaded visual or audio content corresponds to the candidate reference content; controlling distribution of the user uploaded visual or audio content from the online service to the public based on the indication; and based on the indication, updating the universe of reference content with the uploaded visual and audio content via the query fingerprint data to more quickly enable future recognition of the uploaded visual and audio content without review by the first party. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A non-transitory computer readable medium on which is stored instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, perform a method of:
-
obtaining uploaded visual or audio content, the uploaded visual or audio content having been uploaded to an online service for distribution from the online service to the public; deriving query fingerprint data from the uploaded visual or audio content; determining candidate reference content, from a universe of reference content, that is a possible match of the uploaded visual or audio content, in which the possible match comprises a non-identical match between the candidate reference content and the uploaded visual or audio content, said determining being based on the query fingerprint data; handling an indication from a first party through an interface associated with the online service, the indication confirming that the uploaded visual or audio content corresponds to the candidate reference content; controlling distribution of the user uploaded visual or audio content from the online service to the public based on the indication; and based on the indication, updating the universe of reference content with the uploaded visual and audio content via the query fingerprint data to more quickly enable future recognition of the uploaded visual and audio content without review by the first party. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
