Online Communities are changing. They're getting larger, sprawling and multifaceted. At the same time, they're also getting smaller, and more specific. They're become more diverse, interconnected, multiplatform - and the tools needed to interact with, find and manage these communities are having to change with them. We present three fundamentally important technologies: Machine Learning (A.I.), Network Analysis and Text Mining - that we believe will underpin the future of community insight. What they are, why they are important, and how you can use them to bring your brand and its community closer together.

Community Analysis

Thinking in “networks”

Social networks are networks. Duh.

If we start analysing social media like networks new and useful insights arise

This is the New York Times

...and this is Forbes

Positive

Negative

Neutral

Fans @mention Barlow their love of the new track

“Barlow can stick those Percy Pigs...” gets RTs

Behind the scenes photos shared

Barlow like “slashing the Mona Lisa with a platinum machete”.

Conversation Analysis

The power of networks

Influencers can be found by their place in the network

Spread content in a way that it gets seen

The power of networks

Virality can be measured

Going viral can be induced

Going viral is a science

Going viral is a science

Find the influencers that connect different communities

Subcommunities: Find any interests groups within your community to determine how to seed your content

The tools

mappr

Start with a tight community

Influence the connectors

10% is enough

Be relevant

Your message should be closely related to the purpose that brings the target network together

Acknowledge the group’s mindset by bringing in some novelty

Summary

Network analysis helps us find the people and conversations that matter, and take the right actions

By knowing the structure of the network, you can better model how to influence it

Machine Learning

This is the Internet

You look at this much

Intro to Machine Learning

Train artificial intelligence on a big dataset

AI makes a prediction based on what it currently “knows”

AI recalculates what it “knows” based on the new information

Get feedback on whether the prediction was right or wrong

It’s everywhere!

It’s also handy for Social

Social media monitoring 2.0

AI can be trained to look for concepts or themes in text, independent of keywords

Human level intelligence – at scale

Humans and Algorithms...

A few tagging examples

The new way

Train the AI around a bespoke classification taxonomy

One trained, the AI is able to tag mentions autonomously

Keep human experts on hand for minor corrections

Natural Language Processing

We’re all drowning in text!

CM’s have their fair share

Twitter status updates

Facebook comments

…there’s interaction data everywhere

It’s not just “us”…

Summary

A new toolset is needed to analyse the sheer volume of conversation we all have to deal with

Natural Language Processing algorithms are an ideal way to find meaning in the clutter
