Abstract

In various embodiments, methods and systems for implementing video segmentation are provided. A video management system implements a video segment manager that supports generating enhanced segmented video. Enhanced segmented video is a time-based segment of video content. Enhanced segmented video is generated based on a video content cognitive index, segmentation dimensions, segmentation rules and segment reconstruction rules. The video content cognitive index is built for indexing video content. Segmentation rules are applied to the video content to break the video content into time-based segments, the time-based segments are associated with corresponding segmentation dimensions for the video content. Segment reconstruction rules are then applied to the time-based segments to reconstruct the time-based segments into enhanced segmented video. The enhanced segmented video and corresponding values of the segmentation dimensions can be leveraged as distinct portions of the video content for different types of functionality in the video management system.
