US Patent 10313413 Detecting events from ingested communication signals

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for detecting events from ingested communication streams. A communication (e.g., audio) stream is ingested. A communication (e.g., audio) clip is selected from within the ingested communication stream. A clip score indicating a likelihood of the communication stream including event information is computed. Computing resources are allocated to further process the communication clip based on the clip score indicating that further processing is warranted. An event score is computed from event parameters extracted from the communication clip. An event is detect based on the event score.
