Abstract
A method and system are provided for assigning metadata candidates to a commercial by performing image analysis on a plurality of the video frames to identify video frames that include one or more of identifiable product-related logos, brand-related logos, product-related text, or brand-related text which appear in the video frames, capturing frame data for such video frames, calculating a dominance or prominence metric from the frame data for each of the identifiable product-related logos, brand-related logos, product-related text, or brand-related text, comparing the dominance or prominence metric for each of the identifiable product-related logos, brand-related logos, product-related text, or brand-related text to a predetermined threshold percentage or value, and assigning to the commercial, the identified products or brands as metadata candidates when the dominance or prominence metric exceeds the predetermined threshold percentage or value.
