20160132906 | SURGE DETECTOR FOR CONTENT CONSUMPTION - A content consumption monitor (CCM) identifies events from a domain, a number of the events, content associated with the events, and a relevancy of the content to a topic. The CCM may generate a consumption score for the domain and topic based on the number of events and the relevancy of the content to the topic. The CCM may identify domain surges for the topic when the consumption score reaches a threshold. The CCM may adjust the consumption score based on the changes in the relevancy, number of events and/or the number of users over different time periods. The consumption scores not only identify companies interested in different topics but also identifies consumption surges that indicate when the companies are most receptive to direct contacts regarding those topics. | 05-12-2016 |
