Over the years, predictive analysis has relied on syndicated data to augment a company's internal data. Predominantly, these solutions have been wrapped around historical customer behavior data. But over the years, there has been tremendous growth in social media content, i.e. reviews, blogs, tweets etc. These social media sources contain numerous leading indicators that can be used towards anticipating behavior. This presentation focuses on techniques used towards developing social personas from these indicators and then in turn using these social personas towards enabling predictive analytic solutions.

Every summer, music fans worldwide look forward to one of the biggest music events of the year—the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs). This year's VMAs turned out to be one of the world's largest, simultaneous social viewing experiences ever. Leading up to this year's VMAs, MTV marketers set out to grow the brand's social media presence and drive awareness. With 85 million MTV Facebook fans and more than three million Twitter followers—the stage was set for a firestorm of conversation and sharing.

Behaviorals: Using Twitter & the Social Internet to Obtain Above Market Returns
Randy Saaf, CEO, AlphaGenius
Behaviorals is not an introduction to behavioral economics or about knowing yourself as an investor. There are lots of books on behavioral economics that give thorough analysis of why investors, as people, make irrational decisions and how to not let yourself fall victim to your own human emotions while investing. Instead, behaviorals is about studying other people as emotional investors and using text analysis of the social Internet to measure mass psychology to obtain above market investment returns.
