[ecrea] Big Data for Media Analysis Conference - Paris, 16 & 17 December 2013

Thu Dec 05 13:51:53 GMT 2013




Conference Announcement:

*Big Data for Media Analysis /
Analyser les médias a` partir de grands corpus de données numériques*

December 16th-17th, Paris

The Transmedia Observatory OT-Media (www.otmedia.fr <http://www.otmedia.fr>) organizes a two-days international workshop in Paris.

The conference will gather researchers and experts in the processing, analysis, interpretation and visualization of data regarding the media. On the first day, several platforms and tools for media analytics will be presented and compared, looking for mutual strengths and potential biases. The second day will focus on how social scientists and industry experts use quantitative and qualitative methodologies to obtain results. These are some of the questions that will be addressed: Who produces information? How does information spread? What are the relationships among the different channels (radio, tv, web)? What is the role of the news agencies today? How do media landscapes evolve, and in particular the French one? What is the impact of the media on public policies?

The Transmedia Observatory (OT-Media) is a research project building a large database on the French media and developing innovative tools for data mining and visualization. More than 5 million documents have been gathered since July 2011, from over 2,000 fluxes, including tv, radio, web and AFP dispatches.
