Viewing of linear broadcast TV is
decreasing while time spent with digital
content on Catchup TV, on-demand OTT
or social media rises.
Broadcaster audiences are fragmented
across digital channels and digital channels
are full of competing content offers for
their limited attention.
The TV industry is still catching up with
their online competition in the use of Web
technology: interaction, tracking,
personalisation and targeting.

Events in predictive analytics
1. We have analysed what types of events affect TV audience patterns
2. We have associated past events with TV audience variations
3. We can use these associations in training a model for predicting future TV audience variations
1. Future events need to be comparable with past events
2. In audience prediction, we will need knowledge about where & when events are broadcast
