Using an image matching system to improve the quality of service of a video matching system

A system receives a subject video. The system identifies dynamic segments and semi-static segments within the subject video. The system determines matches between the dynamic segments of the subject video and reference dynamic segments of reference videos. Similarly, the system determines matches between the semi-static segments of the subject video and reference semi-static segments of reference videos. The system generates the match merge list including one or more entries. Each entry of the match merge list includes an indication of a grouped segment of the subject video including sequential occurrences of a dynamic segment and a semi-static segment of the subject video, and an indication of a reference grouped segment of a reference video including sequential occurrences of a reference dynamic segment and a reference semi-static segment of the reference video, where the reference dynamic segment matches the dynamic segment and the reference semi-static segment matches the semi-static segment.
