Kaiserslautern, April 29, 2013 Christopher Tim Althoff ABSTRACT Among the vast information available on the web, social media streams capture what people currently pay attention to and how they feel about certain topics. Awareness of such trending topics plays a crucial role in many application domains such as economics, health monitoring, journalism, finance, marketing, and social multimedia systems. However, optimal use of trending topics in these application domains requires a better understanding of their various characteristics in different social media channels. To this end, we present the first comprehensive study across three major online and social media channels, Twitter, Google, and Wikipedia, covering thousands of trending topics over an observation period of an entire year. Our results indicate that depending on one’s requirements one does not necessarily have to turn to Twitter for information about current events and that some media channels strongly emphasize content of specific categories. As our second key contribution we further present a novel approach for the challenging task of forecasting the life cycle of trending topics in the moment they emerge. Our fully automated approach is based on a nearest neighbor forecasting technique exploiting the observation that semantically similar topics exhibit similar behavior. We further demonstrate on a large-scale dataset of Wikipedia page view statis- tics that forecasts by the proposed approach are about 9-48k views closer to the actual viewing statistics compared to baseline methods and achieve a mean average percentage error (MAPE) of 45-19% for time periods of up to 14 days. v ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Soziale Medienkanäle im Web erfassen welchen Themen Menschen derzeit Aufmerksamkeit schenken und spiegeln das momentane Stimmungsbild wider. Das Verständnis des Verhaltens von sogenannten Trending Topics, Themen von besonderer aktueller Relevanz, spielt eine entscheidende Rolle in Anwendungs- domänen wie Wirtschaftswissenschaften, Gesundheitsüberwachung, Journalis- mus, Finanzwesen, Marketing, und sozialen Multimedia-Systemen. Eine optimale Nutzung von Trending Topics in diesen Domänen setzt ein gutes Verständnis von deren Eigenschaften und Verhaltensmerkmalen in ver- schiedenen sozialen Medienkanälen voraus. Zu diesen Zweck präsentieren wir die erste umfassende Studie von tausenden von Trending Topics in drei be- deutenden Online-Medienkanälen, Twitter, Google und Wikipedia, über einen Beobachtungszeitraum von einem Jahr. Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen, dass man je nach Anforderungen nicht notwendigerweise Twitter als Informationsquelle für aktuelle Geschehnisse heranziehen muss und dass manche soziale Medienkanäle bestimmte Inhaltskategorien besonders betonen. Der zweite Hauptbeitrag dieser Arbeit ist ein neuartiges Prognoseverfahren, um den komplexen Lebenszyklus von Trending Topics zum Zeitpunkt deren Entstehung vorherzusagen. Der vollau- tomatische Ansatz basiert auf einem Nearest-Neighbor-Prognoseverfahren und nutzt aus, dass wie in dieser Arbeit beobachtet semantisch verwandte Themen ein ähnliches Verhalten aufweisen. Auf einem umfangreichen Datensatz von Anzeigestatistiken von Wikipedia- Artikeln zeigen wir empirisch, dass der vorgeschlagene Ansatz 9-48k Betrachtun- gen näher an der Wirklichkeit liegt als vergleichbare Baselines und autoregressive Modelle, und dass dieser Ansatz Vorhersagen für bis zu 14 Tage mit einem Mean Average Percentage Error (MAPE) von 45-19% ermöglicht. vi Computers are good at following instructions, but not at reading your mind. — Donald E. Knuth [53] ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis originates from my work as a student research assistant at the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), where I have been a member of the Multimedia Analysis and Data Mining research group from May 2009 until May 2011 and after my time abroad again since January 2013. I would like to thank Prof. Andreas Dengel for the many opportunities I’ve been given at DFKI and constant support during my studies and academic career. I’m heartily thankful to my supervisor, Damian Borth, Master Mind, who from nightly discussions about trending topics on the streets of Nara, Japan to the last draft of my thesis provided me with opportunities, motivation, instruction and insight. I am grateful for the freedom in researching various aspects of trending topics and forecasting, a great time in Japan, and countless discussions on soccer, hair transplants, and other things. I offer my regards to all of those who supported me in any respect during the completion of the project. Particularly, I feel very grateful to Jörn Hees for many helpful discussions as well as paper writing, reviewing, coding, and microgolf sessions, to Andreas Hoepner for insighful discussions on time series analysis, and to Wolfgang Schlauch and Klaus-Dieter Althoff for proof-reading the manuscript. I am further thankful for the support through the PiCloud Academic Research Program Grant that enabled me to conduct this research on their computing cluster free of charge. Lastly, my deepest gratitude goes to my family, and especially my parents, for all the opportunities they have created for me and for giving me the best possible support, careful correction, and enabling freedom.

  • Hintergründe Und Deutungen Des Erfolgs Lena Meyer-Landruts Beim Eurovision Song Contest 2010
    Online-Publikationen des Arbeitskreis Studium Populärer Musik e.V. (ASPM) Hg. v. Ralf von Appen, André Doehring, Dietrich Helms u. Thomas Phleps www.aspm-samples.de/Samples9/appen.pdf Jahrgang 9 (2010) – Version vom 19.08.2010 HINTERGRÜNDE UND DEUTUNGEN DES ERFOLGS LENA MEYER-LANDRUTS BEIM EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2010 Ralf von Appen In der Popmusik gilt das mediale Interesse seit jeher den Stars und nicht den vielen Kreativen hinter den Kulissen. Der Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) aber ist seinem Selbstverständnis nach explizit ein Wettbewerb für Songwriter ― für Komponisten und Textdichter also. Man könnte daher durchaus erstaunt sein, wie sehr (nicht nur) in diesem Jahr die siegreiche Interpretin im Mit- telpunkt steht und wie wenig Aufmerksamkeit den tatsächlichen Gewinnern der Trophäe, Julie Frost und John Gordon, in der Medien-Öffentlichkeit zuteilwird. Doch es wäre naiv zu glauben, es sei die Musik, die beim größten Musikwettbewerb der Welt die Hauptrolle spielt. Das weiß auch Stefan Raab, Mastermind hinter dem diesjährigen bundesdeutschen Beitrag, der, statt sich wie 1998, 2000 und 2004 auf die Musik zu konzentrieren, das Song- writing diesmal weitgehend »outgesourced« und vielmehr den konzeptuel- len Rahmen für ein Multimedia-Produkt geschaffen hat, das nichts dem Zu- fall überlassen und alle denkbaren Ebenen, die Einfluss auf den Erfolg haben könnten, umfassen wollte. Ein Blick auf die Hintergründe des Gewinner- Titels »Satellite« zeigt, wie sehr sich darin die veränderten Produktions- bedingungen und Vertriebswege der gegenwärtigen Kulturindustrie wider- spiegeln. Zunächst einmal beruht das geringe Interesse des ESC-Publikums an den Songwritern (denen eigenen Aussagen zufolge während des Finales in Oslo nur Klappstühle zur Verfügung standen) auf Gegenseitigkeit, denn keines- wegs wurde das Stück mit der Intention verfasst, beim »Grand Prix« zu re- üssieren.

  • Culture of South Africa
    Culture of South Africa From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Zulus in Natal Castle of Good Hope, the oldest colonial building in South Africa The culture of South Africa is known for its ethnic and cultural diversity. The South African black majority still has a substantial number of rural inhabitants who lead largely impoverished lives. It is among these people, however, that cultural traditions survive most strongly; as blacks have become increasingly urbanised and Westernised, aspects of traditional culture have declined. Urban blacks usually speak English or Afrikaans in addition to their native tongue. There are smaller but still significant groups of speakers of Khoisan languages who are not included in the eleven official languages, but are one of the eight other officially recognised languages. There are small groups of speakers of endangered languages, most of which are from the Khoi-San family, that receive no official status; however, some groups within South Africa are attempting to promote their use and revival. Members of middle class, who are predominantly white but whose ranks include growing numbers of black, coloured and Indian people, have lifestyles similar in many respects to that of people found in Western Europe, North America and Australasia. Members of the middle class often study and work abroad for greater exposure to the markets of the world. Indian South Africans preserve their cultural heritage, languages and religious beliefs, being either Christian, Hindu or Muslim and speaking English, with Indian languages like Hindi, Telugu, Tamil or Gujarati being spoken less frequently as second languages. The first Indians arrived on the Truro ship as indentured labourers in Natal to work the Sugar Cane Fields, while the rest arrived as traders.

Gold Medal award winners received cash grants of $5,000, Silver Medal award winners received $3,000 and Bronze Medal award winners received $2,000. The Honorary Foreign Film winner received a $1,000 cash grant. The U.S. students first competed in one of three regional competitions. Each region was permitted to send as many as three finalist films in each of four award categories. Academy members then screened the films and voted to select the winners. "The Confession," the Honorary Foreign Film winner, was selected from a pool of 61 entries representing 36 countries. The Academy established the Student Academy Awards in 1972 to support and encourage excellence in filmmaking at the collegiate level. Past Student Academy Award winners have gone on to receive 40 Oscar nominations and have won or shared seven awards. At the 82nd Academy Awards earlier this year, Pete Docter, who earned a Student Academy Award in 1992, took home the Oscar for Animated Feature Film for "Up." He also earned a nomination for the original screenplay for the film.

ZICKEN-BEEF DELUXE.“ 1 DIE MEDIEN- GENERATION – JUGENDSPRACHE AM BEISPIEL DES DEUTSCHEN HIP HOP UND DEUTSCHER JUGENDZEITSCHRIFTEN by KIRSTEN DEISING (Under the Direction of Renate Born) ABSTRACT Der Jugendsprache wird seit den 80er Jahren nicht nur seitens der Sprachwissenschaft, sondern auch von der populärwissenschaftlichen Literatur stetig mehr Aufmerksamkeit entgegengebracht. Die sich aus der Offenheit der Jugendlichen gegenüber den Medien ergebende, enge Wechselwirkung zwischen den Medien und der Jugendsprache ist das zentrale Thema dieser Arbeit. Die auditiven Medien und die Printmedien besitzen einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf die Jugendsprache, indem sie eine standardisierte gesamtdeutsche Jugendsprache stilisieren und verbreiten. Einer kurzen Erläuterung über die Jugendsprache im Allgemeinen wird eine eingehende Darstellung der Wechselbeziehung zwischen den Jugendmedien und des jugendlichen Jargons folgen. Die in einem theoretischen Teil aufgestellten Thesen werden anschließend in einer sprachwissenschaftlichen Analyse fundiert.
