Welcome to our project for City News Beat!
We are a team of four seniors that created an A.I. engine as part of our project for the Software Engineering class at the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill. Our algorithm reads data of users interactions with City News Beat app and tries to recommend videos based on the user’s interests. Our goal is to deliver to each user a Newscast-for-1 based on their preferences.
City News Beat, Inc. owns and operates the streaming Television channels Tar Heel News Beat, Seattle News Beat, NYC News Beat and Bay Area News Beat for Roku users. Incubated as part of Cohort 11 in 2019 @Launch-Chapel Hill, a not-for-profit organization funded by the Town of Chapel Hill, Orange County and the University of North Carolina, City News Beat is committed to delivering an agenda-free view of local news and weather for the cord-cutter and Smart TV communities they serve across the USA.
