Abstract

This paper proposes a temporal filtering system called the Anti-Spoiler system. The system changes filters dynamically based on user-specified preferences and the user's timetable. The system then blocks contents that would spoil the user's enjoyment of a previously unwatched content. The system analyzes a user-requested Web content, and then uses filters to prevent portions of the content being displayed that might spoil user's enjoyment. For example, the system hides the final score of football from the Web content before watching it on TV.
