To be fair, I wouldn't actual mind answering these Q&A if they were submitted by 10 year olds, it the fact they are 18+ that gets my goat

"The French Typo"

Just started learning about Analytics, and here is a thought.
Among the many things we are now able to predict reasonably well, a few are:
- the taste of wine, without ever tasting it,
- the results of a baseball team,
- the risk of coronary heart disease (?).
Now, the question:
Can we predict the headlines in tomorrow's newspaper?
Most likely, the answer is 'no'. Does this mean that the number of variables is too too large, and finding relationships between them is next to impossible?
Your thoughts?
|
|
|
|

An almost sensible answer -
The taste of wine depends on environmental variables
A baseball team is well a team and groups of teams are reasonably predictably
Heart condition can be determined and is influenced by environmental variables.
Tomorrows headlines are the whim of a single person, the editor and therefore are less predictable. However as a caveat, some papers are so consistent the quality of the headline is entirely predictable!
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

I can do that. The only question is how much are you willing to pay for it?

I meant, more in a scientific / algorithmic sense. Can a (machine learning?) algo do that?
|

They can be predicted to some extent. When some major event happens you know what the headline of next day's newspaper will be. For example elections or disasters. Every year around may our newspapers have headlines like "X students take high school exam" and the week after that "Fraud with high school exams"
That stuff is pretty predictable. Have you ever noticed how many newspapers have more or less the same headline on any given day? That's not a coincidence 
|
|
|
|
|
Yes.
Let me rephrase a bit. I meant 'newspapers' in a generic sense.
The modified question is:
Can we predict what the headlines will be on << * >> channel in the next six hours?
* CNN, BBC, whatever
|
|
|
|

My answer above still applies
Whether you're looking at a tech channel, a gaming channel, a cooking channel, or whatever, they'll all be covering major items in their business and they all want to cover what the competition is covering so they'll be keeping a close eye on each other too.

All you need to predict headlines is to see what's trending on twitter tonight, and that will be a headline in the morning.

I think more accurate these days is what they are afraid to print or won't print.
