Semantic data: The challenge of live sport data

La Perfect is very proud to share its last collaboration in the research field: a piece published in the last issue of the Journal of Digital Media Management. In this summer of 2018, la Perfect worked closely with the European Broadcasting Union to manage the 2018 European Championships data feeds. Jean Pierre Evain (EBU Technology and Innovation Department), Francesco Piva (EBU Software Engineer), Guillaume Rachez and Cédric Klein (Perfect Memory Project Leaders) testify about the challenge of handling live sport data, through a semantic approach. The full article is available on the Journal of Digital Media Management Website, but you can read the abstract below. In the world of sport, the role of data is absolutely central. During any competition event, continuous data feeds provide information on athletes, teams, start lists, schedules and live results — information that must be handled seamlessly and in real time. During the 2018 European Championships, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) applied semantic modelling to sport data, using a platform with a back-end capable of handling thousands of live data messages in real time. Official data from the event organisers was provided in the Olympic Data Feed format and transformed live to the EBUSport semantic format, before being fed to Perfect Memory’s smart media asset management system, connecting results, athlete bios and events to content edited from feeds and logging. The use of semantic technologies makes it possible to navigate linked data in innovative front-end applications. This paper provides a detailed review of the technical challenges faced when managing a semantic data driven ecosystem, and discusses the lessons learned. ...

RTL Belgium chooses Perfect Memory’s Semantic Platform

This project, which is part of ambitious innovation programs driven by the enterprise for the past 20 years, aims to connect production and operation channels of data and content, in order to better serve the operators and improve its user experience. Steny Solitude, CEO and Founder of PERFECT MEMORY, specifies: “With our key challenge of putting data at the heart of the new audiovisual asset management system, this platform enables us to strengthen the strategic needs of traceability and simplification of access to all the steps of the document life-cycle: from its production, to broadcasting “On Air” and on the Internet, and until its archiving.» RAFFINÉ™, the innovative offer of PERFECT MEMORY, a cloud-powered semantic data management platform (S-DMP), capable of automatically reconciling every type of data source (internal and external), every data format (text, image, audio, video), and every data type (structured or non-structured). The platform can be deployed as a standalone application or integrated with existing solutions (DAM, MAM, GED). The technical team in charge of the project at RTL Belgium, composed notably of Thierry Piette, Thomas Matelart, Antoine Pichault and Frédéric Bochart, unanimously states: “The main reason for choosing Perfect Memory resides essentially in the capacity of its solution to reveal the entire value of available content, presenting to users in a suggestive format, which brings them to navigate by suggestion of concepts. This approach allows use to open the search field to producers, who would not have necessarily searched for the content which had been suggested by the software. Furthermore, PERFECT MEMORY was presented to RTL Belgium as a Technology partner, whose  objective is to build an evolutionary, high-performing, agile, interoperable solution geared towards the future.” Let us remember that PERFECT MEMORY, in the advent of IBC 2016, will celebrate 6 years of development and intensive structuring, and already owns  an asset of prestigious references in the Broadcasting, Media and Audiovisual World, such as: Radio France, Belgavox, and TV France International.

Perfect Memory’s Semantic Data Management Platform spotted by american media influencer

Earlier this month, Herve Utheza, CEO of Utheza Media Advisory, released a post on Nscreenmedia about broadcasting. Entitled “Broadcasting is dead, long live “broad-net-casting”, this article is a pamphlet about the future of Broadcasting. Based on thoughts about the last IBC Show in Septembre, the review shows a short term glimpse on Broadcasting. Perfect Memory is quoted as a brilliant example of software solution about digital asset management, as Herve Utheza says : “In the minor halls, smaller vendors had a different focus. They were promoting software-only solutions and tools to manage exponentially growing vaults of digital media. One which attracted my attention was Perfect Memory, with a fantastic platform-architected solution using “semantics” and “ontology” to perform media asset search and management. Simply put, the system helps to find something when a user doesn’t remember the name or title of the show or movie he is searching for”. The whole article is available on nscreenmedia.com.
