Abstract

A system for selecting a video to be inserted into an article displayed at a web page includes a blackboard. The blackboard stores extracted values for operation thereon by one or more workers. An article extractor creates an article feature as a function of information extracted from the article and inputs the article feature to the blackboard. A threshold extractor determines a threshold factor as a function of the relevance of the video to the article, and inputting the threshold factor to the blackboard. A more like this recommender receives the article feature and outputs to the blackboard, as a function of the article feature, a more like this recommendation as a list of videos to be placed in the article. A more like this decider determines, as a function of the threshold factor and the more like this recommendation, which video to select as a more like this decision.
