Abstract

In some implementations, a system may receive a data stream input. The system may identify one or more sets of content parameters associated with the data stream input, each set of content parameters being associated with a different entity. The system may determine a ruling set of content parameters based on the one or more sets of content parameters. The system may selectively modify the data stream input based on a determination of whether a condition indicated by the ruling set of content parameters is satisfied in the data stream input. The system may provide a data stream output resulting from the selective modification of the data stream input.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A system for selectively modifying a data stream, the system comprising:
one or more memories; and one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, configured to: receive a data stream input;
identify one or more sets of content parameters associated with the data stream input, each set of content parameters being associated with a different entity;
determine, using a prioritization model configured to receive information associated with the one or more sets of content parameters as input, a ruling set of content parameters based on the one or more sets of content parameters, wherein the prioritization model applies a prioritization function based on:
each different entity,
a restrictiveness associated with each set of content parameters,
a time period of the data stream associated with each different entity, or
a recipient associated with the data stream input;

selectively modify the data stream input based on a determination of whether a condition indicated by the ruling set of content parameters is satisfied in the data stream input; and
provide a data stream output resulting from the selective modification of the data stream input.

2 . The system of claim 1 ,
wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:
receive content parameter input associated with an entity; and
determine a set of content parameters associated with the entity based on the content parameter input, the set of content parameters being one of the one or more sets of content parameters.

3 . The system of claim 2 ,
wherein the content parameter input includes at least one of textual data, image data, audio data, video data, category information, or annotation information.

4 . The system of claim 2 ,
wherein the content parameter input associates at least one of a demographic or a geographic area with an item of content indicated in the content parameter input.

5 . The system of claim 1 ,
wherein the ruling set of content parameters is a most restrictive set of content parameters of the one or more sets of content parameters.

6 . The system of claim 1 ,
wherein the one or more processors, to selectively modify the data stream input, are configured to modify one or more data units in a sequence of data units associated with the data stream input based on a determination that the condition is not satisfied in the data stream input.

7 . The system of claim 1 ,
wherein the one or more processors, to selectively modify the data stream input, are configured to refrain from modifying data units in a sequence of data units associated with the data stream input based on a determination that the condition is satisfied in the data stream input.

8 . A method for selectively modifying a data stream, comprising:
obtaining, by a system, a sequence of input data units associated with the data stream; determining, by the system and based on using a prioritization model configured to receive information associated with a plurality of sets of content parameters associated with the data stream as input, a ruling set of content parameters to be applied to the data stream, wherein the prioritization model applies a prioritization function based on:
one or more entities associated with the plurality of sets of content parameters,
a restrictiveness associated with each set of content parameters, of the plurality of sets of content parameters,
a time period of the data stream associated with the one or more entities, or
a recipient associated with the data stream;
selectively modifying, by the system, the data stream based on the ruling set of content parameters; and providing, by the system, a sequence of output data units, associated with the data stream, resulting from the selective modification of the data stream.

9 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
identifying the plurality of sets of content parameters, each set of content parameters being associated with a different entity of the one or more entities.

10 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
receiving content parameter input associated with an entity, of the one or more entities; and determining a set of content parameters associated with the entity based on the content parameter input, the set of content parameters being one of the plurality of sets of content parameters.

11 . The method of claim 10 ,
wherein the content parameter input includes at least one of textual data, image data, audio data, video data, category information, or annotation information.

12 . The method of claim 10 ,
wherein the content parameter input associates at least one of a demographic or a geographic area with an item of content indicated in the content parameter input.

13 . The method of claim 8 ,
wherein the ruling set of content parameters is associated with a highest priority entity, of the one or more entities.

14 . The method of claim 8 ,
wherein selectively modifying the data stream comprises modifying one or more data units in the sequence of input data units to generate the sequence of output data units.

15 . The method of claim 8 ,
wherein selectively modifying the data stream comprises refraining from modifying data units in the sequence of input data units.

16 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:
one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a system, cause the system to:
identify one or more sets of content parameters associated with a data stream input, each set of content parameters being associated with a different entity;
determine, based on using a prioritization model configured to receive information associated with the one or more sets of content parameters as input, a ruling set of content parameters based on the one or more sets of content parameters, wherein the prioritization model applies a prioritization function based on:
each different entity,
a restrictiveness associated with each set of content parameters,
a time period of the data stream input associated with each different entity, or
a recipient associated with the data stream input;

modify the data stream input based on a determination that a condition indicated by the ruling set of content parameters is not satisfied in the data stream input; and
provide a data stream output resulting from the modification of the data stream input, wherein the condition is satisfied in the data stream output.

17 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16 ,
wherein the one or more instructions further cause the system to:
receive content parameter input associated with an entity; and
determine a set of content parameters based on the content parameter input, the set of content parameters being one of the one or more sets of content parameters.

18 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 ,
wherein the content parameter input associates at least one of a demographic or a geographic area with an item of content indicated in the content parameter input.

19 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16 ,
wherein the ruling set of content parameters is associated with a highest priority entity.

20 . The system of claim 1 ,
wherein the ruling set of content parameters is a set of content parameters, of the one or more sets of content parameters, that is based on the recipient.
