Rewarding creative use of product placements in user-contributed videos

摘要

A video hosting service automatically identifies, in a video database, a set of videos associated with an advertiser, and presents the identified videos to the advertiser for consideration. The videos may be selected based on analysis of their video content for images of logos associated with the advertisers. The video hosting service may then receive from the advertisers a listing of which of the presented videos should be given an award.
