  • EMIRATES STADIUM Proposal to Increase the Number of Music
    EMIRATES STADIUM Proposal to increase the number of music concerts STATEMENT OF COMMUNITY CONSULTATION Prepared for Arsenal FC by February 2013 EMIRATES STADIUM - Proposal to increase the number of music concerts STATEMENT OF COMMUNITY CONSULTATION 1. Introduction As part of its commitment to consulting with the community on its proposals for the Emirates Stadium and the surrounding area, Arsenal FC commissioned Quatro to devise and organise a public consultation programme on its initial proposal to increase the number of music concerts at the Emirates Stadium from three per year to nine per year. This report sets out the details of the consultation programme; a summary of the main points made by residents and details of how Arsenal FC has responded to the issues raised by residents. 2. The Proposal The May 2002 planning permission restricted the number of music concert events that can be held at the stadium to a maximum of 3 events a year and this is controlled by a planning condition which states: “There shall be no more than 6 non-association football single day major events1 (of which a maximum of 3 could be music concert events) in any 12 month period of which total no more than one shall be on a Sunday and not more than one on a Bank Holiday.” Arsenal FC propose to submit an application to vary this planning condition to extend the number of days that concert (major) events can be held at the Stadium to six per year, to be held over three weekends, starting in 2014. The initial proposal was to increase the number of concerts to nine, but in response to the public consultation exercises, this proposal has been reduced to six concerts per year.

    www.sciedu.ca/air Artificial Intelligence Research 2016, Vol. 5, No. 1 ORIGINAL RESEARCH Providing personalized recommendation for attending events based on individual interest profiles Boris Galitsky∗ eBay, Inc. San Jose CA, USA Received: June 14, 2015 Accepted: August 2, 2015 Online Published: September 24, 2015, 2015 DOI: 10.5430/air.v5n1p1 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5430/air.v5n1p1 ABSTRACT In this article we present a framework to extract user interests from social network profiles such as Facebook to personalize recommendations about products and services. Matching users’ interests as keywords with product attributes as keywords, performed by currently available personalization systems, has a very low recall, so more general category-based framework is needed. It turns out that substantial reasoning about products and their categories is required to match a taxonomy of the owner of products and services, with that of a user, as expressed in a public profile. To handle inconsistencies between these taxonomies, a mapping of one into another is expressed as a Defeasible Logic program (DeLP), where a potential mapping can be defeated by other ones if relevant information becomes available. Events and things to do are recommended at StubHub.com and www.facebook.com/StubHub/ so that the reader can observe the system at a scale. Also, we present content management system which supports personalized recommendation is outlined. Key Words: Personalization, Recommendation of event attendance, Mapping categories of interest 1.I NTRODUCTION methodology of adjustment to prior knowledge about users is still to be developed. Personalized recommendations are becoming more and more [4–6] popular to enable people to efficiently get products and ser- A number of systems have been developed proposed to vices.

  • The Output and Impact of Commercial Radio
    ACTION STATIONS THE OUTPUT AND IMPACT OF COMMERCIAL RADIO CONTENTS 1 OVERVIEW 2 FOREWORDS 7 INTRODUCTION 9 NEWS, WEATHER & TRAVEL 14 COMMUNITY & SOCIAL ACTION 27 MUSIC 33 NEW MEDIA 40 ECONOMIC VALUE OVERVIEW Despite the proliferation of new media available in the UK today, commercial radio has record audiences – reaching 66% of the population – and its stations are a valuable part of the media ecology. Local commercial stations continue to provide up to the minute news and event information, whilst regional brands now offer a valued mix of music and entertainment for listeners. 334 STATIONS £540M REVENUE PER ANNUM 3000 HOURS OF PUBLIC SERVICE CONTENT BROADCASTING OVER PER WEEK 450M HOURS PER WEEK 35 MILLION 4 MILLION EXTRA LISTENERS LISTENERS IN THE LAST 5 YEARS Last summer, RadioCentre surveyed commercial stations to get a full picture of the output provided across the industry, to understand the important role it still plays in the media, culture and communities of the UK. Alongside this work, Kantar Media were commissioned to conduct a major survey of commercial radio listeners, to gauge what the audience thinks of commercial radio output today; more than 40 years on from when it was first launched in late 1973. Results from these two pieces of research show that commercial radio has evolved to become an incredibly valuable medium for advertisers and millions of listeners. Its content is exceeding audience expectations across the board; with high levels of satisfaction in all the areas that commercial radio is known for – whether it is news and information, music and events or community involvement.
