TL;DR: In this article, content identifiers are associated with respective metadata and user's experience with the content can be enhanced through use of the metadata, through which a user can get a better experience with content.
Abstract: Content identifiers are associated with respective metadata. Through use of the metadata, a user's experience with the content can be enhanced. A variety of other arrangements are also detailed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a system for providing rich multimedia metadata usable to generate, e.g., sophisticated entertainment user interfaces in the home, using a server-based software application that feeds multiple, diverse clients.
Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present invention provide methods and systems for supplying rich multimedia metadata usable to generate, e.g., sophisticated entertainment user interfaces in the home. These methods and systems can be implemented as a server-based software application that feeds multiple, diverse clients. The server functionality could be distributed, even co-located physically with one or more clients, or centralized. The server aggregates, filters, validates, augments and links metadata from disparate sources. The server transforms the metadata into a more manageable and extensible internal format. The server communicates with client devices using a schema-independent protocol, providing metadata in the appropriate format that suites the clients needs.

TL;DR: This paper proposed a method of automatically extracting metadata from a document by using a neural network trained to extract metadata from groupings of data called compounds, where each compound includes the words making up the block, descriptive information about the blocks, and authority information associated with some of the words.
Abstract: A method of automatically extracting metadata from a document. The method of the invention provides a computer readable document that includes blocks comprised of words, an authority list that includes common uses of a set of words, and a neural network trained to extract metadata from groupings of data called compounds. Compounds are created with one compound describing each of the blocks. Each compound includes the words making up the block, descriptive information about the blocks, and authority information associated with some of the words. The descriptive information may include such items as bounding box information, describing the size and position of the block, and font information, describing the size and type of font the words of the block use. The authority information is located by comparing each the words from the block to the authority list. The compounds are processed through the neural network to generate metadata guesses including word guesses, compound guesses and document guesses along with confidence factors associated with the guesses indicating the likelihood that each of the guesses is correct. The method may additionally include providing a document knowledge base of positioning information and size information for metadata in known documents. If the document knowledge base is provided, then the method includes deriving analysis data from the metadata guess and comparing the analysis data to the document knowledge base to determine metadata output.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an organization system for organizing items, consisting of a data structure (10) associating at least one semantic metadata (12) with an item (11) to define a directional relationship between a concept and the item.
Abstract: An organisation system (5) for organizing items (11), the system (5) comprising: a data structure (10) associating at least one semantic metadata (12) with an item (11) to define a directional relationship between a concept and the item (11); and a user interface (20) to express the at least one semantic metadata (12) in at least one natural language using a description or at least one keyword corresponding to the concept in the at least one natural language; wherein the at least one semantic metadata (12) corresponds to the concept that is a characteristic of the item (11); and the at least one semantic metadata (12) and the item (11) are referenced by unique machine-readable identifiers

TL;DR: In this article, a secure data exchange system that includes a data management facility and a plurality of data storage nodes is described, where the data is stored by a user of a first entity and comprises content and metadata.
Abstract: In embodiments, the disclosure provides a secure data exchange system that includes a data management facility; and a plurality of data storage nodes. The data management facility manages content sharing between entities of data stored in the data storage nodes, wherein the data is stored by a user of a first entity and comprises content and metadata. The data management facility only has access to the metadata of the user data for managing of the data in the plurality of data storage nodes and not the content. The data management facility may be geographically distributed at a plurality of data management sites and the data storage nodes may exist inside and outside of a firewall of the first entity.
