Figure 1. Cisco Pulse Video Analytics Identifies Speakers and Keywords Using Speech-Recognition Technology
The process works like this:
1. Point Cisco Pulse Video Analytics to a folder containing assets to create a vocabulary specific to your
organization or department.
2. Capture the video. Without any action on your part, the Cisco MXE 3500 Media Experience Engine
automatically transforms the video for publishing on Cisco Show and Share, which includes identifying
keywords and speakers.
3. From Show and Share, people can search within the video by speaker, keyword, or keyword said by a
particular speaker.
The term video analytics sometimes refers to software that records the number of people who watch a given
video, their demographic characteristics, and so on. Cisco Pulse Video Analytics is different: it uses speech-
recognition technology to identify speakers and spoken keywords so that you can search within videos.

Step 1. Point Cisco Pulse Video Analytics to company documents to create a vocabulary list

Instead of manually assigning tags to each video, such as “quarterly earnings” or “growth projections”, you can
direct the Cisco Pulse application to create a vocabulary list that is customized for your organization. Cisco Pulse
Video Analytics uses speech-recognition technology to find these keywords in each video.
To build a vocabulary list, create a document repository containing Word, PowerPoint, PDF, and text files. The
application analyzes the documents to create a vocabulary list, presented as a spreadsheet. Building a good
vocabulary list typically requires about a thousand 20-page documents, or approximately 10 million words.
To remove keywords, simply delete them from the list. If you later want to add more keywords because your
company enters a new market or changes its product names, for instance, simply refresh the document repository
that the Cisco Pulse application analyzes.
