S33-01 - In Texas, we just call it Data
Conference Track
8. Emerging Technologies & Trends
Learning Objectives
- understand some of the additional layers there are in media beyond just text;
- have a notion of the size of the problem out there.
Abstract
When people think of "big data," they consider text archives and user behavior and stop there. Every day more media is recorded than was recorded in the entire 20th century and it's only accelerating. Fundamentally, this data is just noise if it's not organized and understandable. As we consider sentiment, emotional content, and object recognition in video, a statement like “that’s a great idea” contains radically more complexity.
