ABSTRACT:
The described arrangements and procedures provide an intelligent media agent to autonomously collect semantic multimedia data text descriptions on behalf of a user whenever and wherever the user accesses media content. The media agent analyzes these semantic multimedia data text descriptions in view of user behavior patterns and actions to assist the user in identifying multimedia content and related information that is appropriate to the context within which the user is operating or working. For instance, the media agent detects insertion of text and analyzes the inserted text. Based on the analysis, the agent predicts whether a user intends to access media content. If so, the agent retrieves information corresponding to media content from a media content source and presents the information to a user as a suggestion.
