The Time Machine of SAPO has 25 years in news stories - TeK.sapo

The SAPO today, November 28, the premiere online platform Time Machine. The name leaves no room for doubts: it is a tool that allows you to go back a few years to know what happened at the time. The content is filled through news and the shape is defined by the links between the personalities that dominated the media attention at the set time.

25 years of Portugal portrayed through news are 7 million, most which belonged to the Lusa agency that provided the news archive for the project.

Time Machine

The concept was developed in a partnership between SAPO Labs and Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto (FEUP). The project was presented more significantly in issue number seven SAPO Codebits, having TeK made known at the time the preliminary phase of idea.

During the last year the project has evolved into several areas, as explained the TeK responsible for SAPO Labs, Benjamin Junior. One of the points that has been evolved is related to the entry of new partners beyond the journalistic Lusa, which provides access to information in real time. It was also made great efforts in optimizing the tool to work on both tablets and browsers less capable computers.

Another new feature is the ability for each user to set a personal page where you can have more access right to information of the personalities that tell you.

Project in journalism, investigative tool, interactive tool or historical social network. Either definition fits in Time Machine that was already available in another format across the page “World Views It.”

Benjamin Junior prefers to speak in a democratization of information. “The Time Machine is a powerful tool for information professionals and for all people.” One of the goals of the online platform is to make the files into something that is not boring, because “it takes courage to us we send some files,” said the guardian.

The Time Machine

Users can search an event by date or person who scored this season. Benjamin Junior highlights an event – the death of Ayrton Senna in May 1994. When the search is on personalities, a network of connections with other elements that share at the time the media references and that may not even be related to the same news is presented. In case of death of the Formula 1 driver names are related to motoring that arise in the “web”.

“This type of information conveys an emotional connection, brings back memories.’s Name is Time Machine a name chosen to be emotional, “says the coordinator of SAPO Labs in conversation with the TeK.

The whole research process is done automatically and generated by computers. Behind the Time Machine there are many other projects that aggregates from here can continue to evolve.

Currently the SAPO Labs is also developing ideas in terms of classification of videos, treatment and analysis of networks social and educational projects in the area.

Sapo launches Time Machine to travel 25 years of news - The Associated Press

Frog launched a website that allows you to explore the last 25 years of news in Portugal, through the archives of the agency Lusa and articles for various websites, totaling seven million texts.

The tool, called Time Machine and developed by the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto in partnership with Frog Labs, lets you search by a person (the politicians to footballers) to see all items in which this person was referred, access a list of quotes that the media did and still see a network of relationships with other personalities. Are indexed about 100 thousand people.

A survey by Pedro Passos Coelho, for example, shows that it was mentioned in 25402 since November 28 last year, a period during which the prime minister was cited 3313 times by the media. The web of relationships (calculated from the frequency with which other persons also appear in articles in which Pedro Passos Coelho is mentioned) shows that Paulo Portas is the strongest bond – meaning that the Deputy Prime Minister is the figure that more often appears in news which also include the prime minister. Other common names are António José Seguro and Aníbal Cavaco Silva.

project leader, Benjamin Jr., says that one of the objectives is now to embed photos and videos. “I want people to surf at 20 years of photos of Mário Soares,” he explains. Use images raises, however, new challenges classification.

For elements such as text or photographs may be used in Time Machine, they must have associated information that computers can interpret as a date. But many of the photographs that the project will come to show do not have enough information associated. Therefore, the team Time Machine is to develop algorithms to recognize faces, objects and patterns, so that a computer can automatically identify stakeholders and to try to determine the date of a photograph, photographed from the elements and any information that exists in the legends of the image.

tool now available had been shown last year at Toad Codebits, event programming and technology at PT.

The Time Machine also shows the most frequent figures in the news in recent days. Over the last week, the list is led by Cristiano Ronaldo, mentioned in 804 articles. Here are Cavaco Silva, Mário Soares, Paulo Fonseca (Porto coach), Pedro Passos Coelho and Benfica coach Jorge Jesus.
