A semantics-enabled movie-space platform: market assessment
FY 2013-14
Summary
This proposal is for the market assessment for the first-fully automated and dedicated movie-space platform and application programming interface (API). Once developed, it will empower various online movie and television businesses (and peripheral Web services) with semantic capability for their backend processing regardless of syntactic nuances and protocols of their feeder websites and sources. The innovation takes advantage of new strides in Natural Language Processing (NLP), Semantic Web, and Image Processing technology to uniformly structure Big Data and Linked Open Data (LOD) that relates to the motion picture industry and to make that information available to a range of online service-providers who need that information on the fly. Potential market segments and customers include but are not limited to online film and television networks (such as Netflix & Hulu), movie-recommender engines and websites (imdb & jinni), intelligent marketing and advertising agencies, and independent application developers.
