Specification

Description:INTEGRATED MUSIC PLATFORM WITH SYSTEMATIC SCORING FOR FAIR COMPETITION AND USER ENGAGEMENT
FIELD OF INVENTION:
[001] The invention disclosed herein is related to entertainment and more particularly is pertained to Digital based social entertainment activity.
BACKGROUND:
[002] The present invention, as described in this patent application, emerges from a comprehensive analysis of prior art, notably US20210012200A1, US11252797B2, and US4232295A, addressing challenges in the field of music engagement, user satisfaction, and fair competition in customized music platforms.

[003] US20210012200A1 highlights the challenges faced in searching and categorizing music based on user perception, specifically focusing on overcoming issues in collaborative filtering and introducing a system tailored for new artists. The invention emphasizes the implementation of a scoring system to facilitate fair competition in the music pool. This acknowledgment of the need for fairness and innovation sets the foundation for the present invention.

[004] US11252797B2 delves into the realm of jukebox devices with dual displays, lighting arrangements, and the integration of advertisements with music. The invention transforms the music engagement experience by merging advertising and music effects. The integration of dual displays and lighting arrangements sets the stage for a visually captivating environment. Drawing inspiration from US11252797B2, the present invention incorporates these elements, aiming to enhance user experience and create a dynamic music platform that goes beyond traditional boundaries.

[005] US4232295A, on the other hand, primarily focuses on monitoring song reproduction devices and collecting data on song selections and play counts through a centralized collector/scanner system. The use of a single multiplex telephone line for communication between the devices and the collector/scanner is emphasized. While US4232295A provides a method for monitoring physical devices, the present invention takes a different approach. It shifts the focus from physical connections to a more versatile and dynamic data acquisition model. Instead of relying on a centralized collector/scanner system, the present invention leverages various online platforms, diversifying data acquisition modes and ensuring a more comprehensive view of user interactions.
[006] But there is still a need for a systematic scoring approach to be incorporated integrating the visual and advertising elements to enhance user experience. Also there is a need for a system deviating from the centralized collector/scanner system. There is further a need to adopt a more flexible and diverse data acquisition approach. There is therefore a need for an integrated music platform that not only addresses the challenges identified in prior art but also sets new standards for user engagement, fairness, and innovation in the realm of customized music experiences.

The frontend is configured to send the performance details. To a ranking module. The song rank is updated in the frontend. The confirmation is displayed in the user device. Based on the results the updated data is sent to pool / service. The wallet details are updated. The updated user wallet is sent back to the leaderboard service.
[053] In alternate embodiments, optionally, a Notification module configured to notify users of their rankings, pool updates, and other relevant information, enhancing user engagement and participation in the music pool competition is provided.
[054] In various embodiments, the server based on the data or status on the leaderboard module is configured to send prize distribution details to a wallet module present within a user module.
[055] In various embodiments based on request or alternatively based on schedule or based on immediate pooling status, pool result is sent from pooling module to leaderboard service module.
[056] In many embodiments, the diverse pool options for songs are provided songs from various genres, artists, or themes, providing participants with a wide array of choices for an enriched music pool experience.
[057] In various embodiments, the systematic scoring approach ensures fairness by providing equal opportunities for all participants and promoting healthy competition within the music pool.
[058] In many alternate embodiments the system is provided with voice integrated module to enable voice to action based module integrated. That is when a user dictates the song arrangement order. Automatic pooling is carried out by the system by speech recognition module additionally incorporated.
[059] In many alternate embodiments, the user based customized songs are provided based on difficulty levels. For instance, for easy or preliminary levels, easy songs or songs provided previously are provided. For each stage providing set of songs that are provided based on customizable features and complexity of levels.
[060] In other variations, several users can simultaneously join to participate and form user groups. For example, a group of five friends might opt to play for enjoyment or in a competitive setting. Users can enter collectively through a single system or input group details or an authentication code, enabling them to engage as a cohesive group. During gameplay, users within the group can collaborate to rank songs and earn rewards. The system offers songs based on the collective interests of the group, facilitating pooling and ranking activities.
[061] In an exemplary embodiment, an exemplary algorithm is provided. The invention is not restricted to the below provided algorithm:
def calculate_song_scores(song_views):
# Step 1: Rank songs based on normalized views
ranked_songs = sorted(song_views, key=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True)

# Step 2: Calculate scores for each song
song_scores = []
for i, (song, views) in enumerate(ranked_songs, start=1):
score = i * views
song_scores.append((song, score))

return song_scores

def calculate_user_score(user_song_views):
# Step 3: Calculate total user score
user_score = sum(song[1] for song in user_song_views)
return user_score

def rank_users(user_scores):
# Step 4: Rank users based on total scores
ranked_users = sorted(user_scores, key=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True)
return ranked_users

# Example usage:
song_views = [("Song1", 100), ("Song2", 200), ("Song3", 50)] # Sample song views
user_song_views = [("Song1", 100), ("Song2", 200), ("Song3", 50)] # Sample user's ranked songs

# Calculate scores for songs
song_scores = calculate_song_scores(song_views)
print("Song Scores:", song_scores)

# Calculate total user score
user_score = calculate_user_score(user_song_views)
print("User Score:", user_score)

# Rank users based on total scores
user_scores = [("User1", 300), ("User2", 250), ("User3", 400)] # Sample user scores
ranked_users = rank_users(user_scores)
print("Ranked Users:", ranked_users)
