CONTENT MONITORING AND HOST COMPLIANCE EVALUATION

A content hosting service provides an interface for enabling content owners to upload controlled video and specify conditions for monitoring and hosting it on the hosting service. Plural fingerprints are extracted from the controlled video and used to detect use of the controlled video on pages of the hosting service. The fingerprint extraction and evaluation enables extent of copying to be determined. The interface also allows owners to specify context in which controlled video may be used. Results of monitoring are provided in a graphical user interface that depicts matches of the controlled video and extent of copying of the controlled video in matching monitored video.
