| Asur, S. & Huberman, B.A. | Predicting the Future with Social Media | 2010 | misc | URL | |
| Abstract: In recent years, social media has become ubiquitous and important for socialnetworking and content sharing. And yet, the content that is generated fromthese websites remains largely untapped. In this paper, we demonstrate howsocial media content can be used to predict real-world outcomes. In particular,we use the chatter from Twitter.com to forecast box-office revenues for movies.We show that a simple model built from the rate at which tweets are createdabout particular topics can outperform market-based predictors. We furtherdemonstrate how sentiments extracted from Twitter can be further utilized toimprove the forecasting power of social media. | |||||

article | URL |
| Abstract: Collaborative tagging describes the process by which many users add metadata in the form of keywords to shared content. Recently, collaborative tagging has grown in popularity on the web, on sites that allow users to tag bookmarks, photographs and other content. In this paper we analyze the structure of collaborative tagging systems as well as their dynamical aspects. Specifically, we discovered regularities in user activity, tag frequencies, kinds of tags used, bursts of popularity in bookmarking and a remarkable stability in the relative proportions of tags within a given url. We also present a dynamical model of collaborative tagging that predicts these stable patterns and relates them to imitation and shared knowledge. | |||||
