Abstract
Methods of and systems for identifying a discrete participant among a plurality of participants in an audio/video communication (e.g., video content, digital video content, audio content, and audio-visual content) that include: receiving the audio/video communication; identifying from the audio/video communication content (e.g., using metadata from the broadcast content to identify each participant) multiple identification-related features for each participant; associating a first identification-related feature of a first participant to a second identification-related feature of the first participant; organizing the associated identification-related features of the first participant into a feature class(es); logically relating a first feature class to a second feature class; and attributing a grouping of logically-related feature classes to the discrete participant.
