A new research paper introduces a multimodal annotation framework designed for broadcast television analytics, addressing the unique challenges of processing audiovisual content with domain-specific constraints. The study systematically evaluates various multimodal large language models (LLMs), including Gemini 3.0 Pro, LLaMA 4 Maverick, Qwen-VL, and Gemma 3, across different pipeline architectures and input strategies. Results indicate that larger models benefit more from temporal continuity in video, while smaller models can suffer from token overload with extended multimodal context. The framework has been deployed on broadcast episodes, integrating minute-level annotations with audience measurement data to analyze topic-level audience sensitivity and engagement. AI
IMPACT This framework could enable more sophisticated audience analysis for broadcast media by leveraging multimodal LLMs.
