Abstract: Disclosed is an improved method, system, and computer program product for implementing an author profiling tool for receiving data created by a plurality of authors, profiling the plurality of authors by performing semantic analysis upon the data, generating a plurality of author profiles for identifying topics of interest to the author based upon results from the semantic analysis and correlating topics of interest by analyzing the plurality of author profiles to identify common topics between the plurality of authors. These author profiles can be used to identify and correlate topical interests by consumers. An enterprise or business can more effectively market to the consumers based upon this knowledge of the consumers' interests.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved method, system, and computer program product for performing trend analysis of themes from social media data. Semantic analysis is performed on content that appear on social media sites. The results of the semantic analysis can be used to identify themes within the social media data over a period of time. Trend analysis is performed over the identified themes. An enterprise or business can more effectively market to the consumers based upon this knowledge of the consumers' interests.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system, method, and computer program product for performing semantic 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 user interface allows the user to create one or more text-based filters and metadata filters based on which social data for each topic is filtered.

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.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system, method, and computer program product for performing dynamic theme analysis 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 for performing theme analysis.

Abstract: Disclosed is an approach for implementing a system, method, and computer program product for performing social marketing using a cloud-based system. The approach is capable of accessing data across multiple types of internet-based sources of social data and commentary and to perform analysis upon that data. A social marketing campaign can then be generated and implemented in an integrated manner using the system. This permits realtime reaction to trends, with rapid ability to react to opportunities in the marketplace.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved method, system, and computer program product for analyzing interests of consumers, where semantic analysis is performed on writings by authors on social media sites. The results of the semantic analysis provide a profile of the authors. These author profiles can be used to identify and correlate topical interests by consumers. An enterprise or business can more effectively market to the consumers based upon this knowledge of the consumers' interests.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system, method, and computer program product for allowing an entity to access social media data, and to perform term analysis upon that data. The approach is capable of accessing data across multiple types of internet-based sources of social data and commentary. A user interface is provided that allows the user to view and interact with the results of performing term analysis.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved method, system, and computer program product for analyzing social media content. Correlation analysis is used to analyze the social media data snippets. The correlation analysis is performed by reviewing other items of data that are outside of the message content itself. The present approach can advantageously be used to analyze and understand the content of social media message even where only very small quantities of data are provided within each message posting.

Abstract: Disclosed is an approach for allowing a business entity to access and integrate with social media data, which is capable of accessing data across multiple types of internet-based sources of social data and commentary and to perform semantic analysis upon that data. Tags are associated with the analyzed content that pertain to actionable categorization of the data. Community managers can then view and take action with respect to the data. In addition, enterprise business applications can utilize the tagged data to perform business processing.

Abstract: A method and system for generating a user interface in a database management system. A semantic data model is used to describe a database in terms of data types stored in the database and functional types that describe relationships between the data types stored in the database. The system dynamically queries the data model to generate a graph of the data model itself. These queries are initiated by the system without user intervention. The user selects a node on the graph that causes the data model to be searched again to determine the name of the node selected, one or more types of relationships associated with the node selected and one or more instances of the relationships associated with the node selected. This information is used to generate a form containing a plurality of blanks. A user enters a query constraint into one or more of the blanks and the database is searched for instances of data meeting the query constraints.
