Internos video popularity forecasting
Description
To predict media popularity, we collect meta-data and traffic information from an online video transmission platform named Internos currently deployed in the Universidad de las Ciencias Informáticas. Internos is online in a closed university campus via network intranet and serves about 7.000-10.000 users. The dataset is build in a time interval of two years of activity between 04/16 and 04/18. The core concept in the platform is the media resource. Media resources have a section. One media resource belongs to only one section and a section has several media resources. There are several types of media resource: Video, Movie, Serial, Audio and Other. Users can post comments and vote for specific media resources. Finally, a user may choose to reproduce a media resource requesting the video frames from the streaming server. In total, there are 4394 media resources, 2504763 video requests events, 1866 comments and 14695 votes for the media resources. For each media resource, we create several instances considering the number of video requests in each day after the media publication up to 20 days. Hence, the dataset contains 75782 instances after we removed duplicated records.
