Abstract

The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method and system for hardware, channel, language and ad length agnostic detection of multi-lingual televised advertisements. The detection is performed across live streams of media content of one or more broadcasted channels. The method includes selection of a set of frames per second from a pre-defined set of frames. The method includes extraction of a pre-defined number of keypoints from each selected frame and derivation of a pre-defined number of binary descriptors from the extracted keypoints. The method includes creation of a special pyramid of the binary descriptors and accessing a second vocabulary of binary descriptors. The method includes comparison of each spatially identifiable binary descriptor from the first vocabulary with spatially identifiable binary descriptors in clusters of the second vocabulary. The method includes progressively scoring each selected frame and detection of the first ad in the live streams of the media content.
