  • Abstract
    TV ratings indicate the popularity of a TV show and these ratings are also used by broadcasters to set their advertising revenue rates. People post their opinions about their favourite shows on social networks like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc. These opinions and comments are a clear indicator of the current number of TV show viewers. The paper presents our work which is towards measuring TV show ratings using Twitter messages pertaining to shows in India. It classifies the relevant tweets based on machine learning and also helps to determine slot prices of ads shown during show time.
