VideoSurf Adds New Video Search By Personality Feature

VideoSurf, a next-generation video search engine that launched this past summer just released an interesting new feature that allows users to search for videos by personality/character.

According to VideoSurf, they use their computer vision search engine to measure and determine which personalities are most visible and popular across the web. These personalities are then ranked from left to right in order of importance, based on the frequency of their visual appearances within indexed video content and use of other popularity algorithms.
