The Juicer (AKA BBC NEWS JUICER) was a project started in 2012 to provide a semantic prototyping platform for BBC News.

You can find the history and some technical implementation information on The Juicer on our blog here

The Juicer has provided a useful prototyping platform for BBC Prototyping projects, at The Connected Studios Events and elsewhere.

The Juicer combines these elements to provide a repository of tagged content items from the BBC’s archive, leading up to current News & Sport items (all the way up to “1 hour before present time”)

  1. Concept extraction
  2. Semantic concept matching to DBPedia
  3. Semantic Annotation
