The invention relates to a method for recognizing content in an image sequence, comprising the steps of: detecting at least one face appearing in at least one frame of an image sequence under test; recognizing characteristic features of said at least one face; comparing said characteristic features to known features of characters stored in a database, thereby deciding whether said face represents a known character; detecting and recognizing at least one additional feature in at least one frame of said image sequence under test and at least one relation between the appearance of said known character and said at least one additional feature; comparing said at least one relation to metadata comprising known relations stored in said database each one assigned to a particular known image sequence, thereby recognizing if said image sequence under test at least partially equals one of said known image sequences.

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de reconnaître un contenu dans une séquence d'images, qui comprend les étapes consistant à : détecter au moins un visage apparaissant dans au moins une image d'une séquence d'images testée ; reconnaître des traits caractéristiques dudit au moins un visage ; comparer lesdits traits caractéristiques à des traits connus de personnes stockées dans une base de données, décidant de cette façon si oui ou non ledit visage représente une personne connue ; détecter et reconnaître au moins un trait supplémentaire dans au moins une image de ladite séquence d'images testée et au moins une relation entre l'apparence de ladite personne connue et ledit au moins un trait supplémentaire ; comparer ladite au moins une relation à des métadonnées comprenant des relations connues stockées dans ladite base de données, chacune étant attribuée à une séquence d'images particulière connue, reconnaissant de cette façon si ladite séquence d'images testée égale au moins en partie l'une desdites séquences d'images connues.
