摘要： Method, device and system for generating a light control parameter for controlling light (20), e.g. ambient light, in response to an audio signal (A). The audio signal (A) is analyzed in order to extract a temporal evolution of semantic content of the audio signal (A). A light control parameter is then generated according to the temporal evolution of semantic content of the audio signal (A), either on-line or off-line. This enables generating light that is perceptually aligned with the audio signal, e.g. music. In a preferred embodiment spatial properties of the audio signal (A) are extracted, and separate light control parameters are generated for controlling light sources spatially positioned according to the spatial properties of the audio signal, e.g. for stereo or surround sound systems where light sources are positioned near each loudspeaker. Such embodiment enables spatial correspondence between light and audio. In another preferred embodiment semantically distinct temporal sections of a sequence of the audio signal (A) are determined, e.g. sections of a piece of music, and wherein the light control parameter is generated to reflect these sections of the audio signal (A). Such embodiment enables temporal changes in light that follow perceived changes in e.g. a piece of music. Applications of the described method is e.g. within home entertainment systems, theatres, jukeboxes, bars, restaurants, cinemas and discotheques.

摘要： A method of organising content items includes obtaining information (19-21) associating each of a first and at least one further label with respective sets of first content items. At least one first content item is associated with the first label in response to user input. A second content item is obtained. For each of the first and further labels, a similarity measure is calculated between a feature vector characterising the second content item and each of the feature vectors characterising first content items associated with the label. The first label is associated with the second content item upon determining that the second content item is similar to the first content items associated with the first label, according to calculated values of the similarity measure.

摘要： A method of processing message from a user of a system (1-4) for storing sets of data representing a first collection (11) of content items (12), each including a recording of at least one perceptible content element, includes obtaining information (13; 19) representative of a first assignment of category labels to content items (12) in the first collection (11), wherein the message includes an indication of a category label used in the first assignment. The method further includes obtaining information (14) representative of a second assignment of category labels to content items (12) including a recording of at least one perceptible content element, and matching with the category label indicated in the message an indication of at least one of the category labels used in the second assignment by determining a measure of similarity between content items (12) assigned the category label indicated in the message in the first assignment and content items (12) assigned category labels in the second assignment.
