Abstract
Disclosed is a system, method, and computer program product for performing theme analysis and creating topics with regards to social data. A user interface is provided that allows the user to view and interact with to view and control the process/mechanism or creating topics. The topic creation process can be facilitated and automated using a volatility index.
Claims48
A method implemented with a processor, comprising:
- receiving a search criteria to perform a search of content from one or more sources;
- performing a search of the content from the one or more sources, wherein search results are displayed comprising identification of one or more themes, and an individual theme within the search results is selectable to display a set of information associated with the individual theme;
- generating an interface control that permits selection of a semantic filter associated within a selected theme from the one or more themes;
- and
- creating a new topic that corresponds to the search criteria, wherein the new topic corresponds to the search criteria and the semantic filter.
A computer readable medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions which, when executed by a processor causes the processor to execute a method comprising:
- receiving a search criteria to perform a search of content from one or more sources;
- performing a search of the content from the one or more sources, wherein search results are displayed comprising identification of one or more themes, and an individual theme within the search results is selectable to display a set of information associated with the individual theme;
- generating an interface control that permits selection of a semantic filter associated within a selected theme from the one or more themes;
- and
- creating a new topic that corresponds to the search criteria, wherein the new topic corresponds to the search criteria and the semantic filter.
The computer readable medium of claim 232, wherein at least some of the snippets comprise a sentence or paragraph boundary.
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- a storage device to hold content from one or more sources;
- a memory comprising computer code executed using the processor, in which the computer code implements a topic creation engine, the topic creation engine receiving a search criteria to perform a search of the content from the one or more sources, wherein search results are displayed comprising identification of one or more themes, and an individual theme within the search results is selectable to display a set of information associated with the individual theme;
- and
- a user interface mechanism that provides an interface control that permits selection of a semantic filter associated within a selected theme from the one or more themes, wherein the topic creation engine creates a new topic that corresponds to the search criteria such that the new topic corresponds to the search criteria and the semantic filter.
