Interactive Video Suite
This Module uses the Personalization Platform to create an interactive video playlist system. As users watch videos, the module learns about their preferences and creates a "never-ending" playlist of videos. The playlist morphs as the user undertakes actions so that there is always a set of interesting videos queued.

The following features are supported by this tier of the system:
  • Personalized Playlist: Returns a personalized playlist of “Videos I Might Like” based on the user’s entire profile. Length of playlist can be preset by the customer or set in real-time by the user.
  • Artist/Director Videographies: Given a seed artist/director, returns all videos by artist/director followed by a Personalized Playlist heavily weighted to the seed artist/director.
  • More Videos Like This: Given a seed video, returns a Personalized Playlist heavily weighted by the seed video.
  • Artist-influenced playlist: Given a seed artist, returns a Personalized Playlist heavily weighted by seed artist and including multiple videos featuring artist. Artist separation (i.e. how often seed artist appears in playlist) can be preset by the customer.
  • Video Homepage recommendations: Presents an ordered list of recommended videos for display on user’s homepage. The client can control mix of videos (i.e. x newly released videos; y new to the service videos; z recommended original programming videos for user, etc.).
