Video is everywhere! ★ How to get your audiences¨ attention?
Business value of digital video marketing
? Consumers watch a full length video asset after being exposed to a summary (advertisement or
trailer)
? Attention spans towards video on digital channels are dropping
? Many channels have focused their content distribution on short-form video (stories)
Digital marketing of video contentrequires optimal selectionand summarization

Use of video assets in digital marketing

should I promote on social
media in the coming week?

ReTV develops aTrans-Vector Platform
(TVP) to analyse content across all channels
and ^publish to all media vectors with the
effort of one ̄
Topics Compass: explore trends
in topics of online discourse
Identifytopics of
interest to the
future audience
Prediction: what is the optimal publication
time/channel for content according to its topic?
We chose topicsin sports as there can be seen a past trend in onlinediscourserelated to sports
events.
We used topic mentionsin globalEnglish& German news sources for the time series training
data.
The training/testingdataset covered 28 months (dailyvalues = 841 data points) and we predict
for the next 30 days.
The first attempt lookedat different keywords(cycling,formulaone, wimbledon)and found that
each keywordwill differin its behaviour and therefore predictivepower.
We found in testing with ARIMA that the best functioningmodelwas SARIMAX
(7,1,2) with seasonal order (0,0,0,365), below the MAE and RMSE for the prediction:
CYCLING 15.3 18.5
FORMULAONE 22.2 37.0
WIMBLEDON 44.1 79.1
Prediction: what is the optimal publication
time/channel for content according to its topic?
We comparedSARIMAX and LSTMs
for predictive accuracy measured by MAE
and RMSE.
LSTM Encoder Decoder with Seq2seq
and Luong attention has performedbest
for multi-step forecasting.
However, SARIMAX outperformed LSTMs
for one step forecastingwith
autoregression.

SARIMAX 15.3 18.5

Prediction: what is the best topic to choose on a future
date?
Our events and anniversariesAPIhighlights
important events and anniversariesona specific
date.
TheTopicsCompass can identifytime references
inWebpagesand socialmediaposts and
aggregate those documents that refer to a
specificdate, displayingthe top keywords
extracted from the document cluster.

certain topic?

Prediction: hybrid model (best of all worlds)
It appearsmulti-step time series forecastingcanhelp predict future
topicaltrends when the topichas enough past data with a
discernibleseasonality.
Topics that emerge in recent time or lackpast seasonaltrends are
more difficult: usingone step time seriesforecastingwith
autoregression,the accuracy dropsas we look further into the
future (10 fold validationresults in table, left, for 'cycling'usinga
LSTM Encoder-Decoder modelwith TimeSeriesGenerator)
Future work is to see how the other prediction features (event,
future temporal references) can help improve the accuracy of
prediction in longer time periods (>10 days!)
