Abstract

Techniques and system are described to control output of digital marketing content with respect to digital content. This is achieved by leveraging additional insight that may be gained from external service systems that describe the digital content, e.g., social network systems, digital content review systems, and so forth. In one example, the techniques and systems are configured to collect social network data that describes social network communications communicated via a social network system. Natural language processing techniques are then performed as part of machine learning to detect interest of a user population associated with the social network communications.

Claims (31)

1 . In a digital medium environment to control digital marketing content output with respect to digital content, a method implemented by at least one computing device, the method comprising:

receiving, by the at least one computing device, a content identifier identifying digital content to be output for consumption by a client device;

obtaining, by the at least one computing device, social network communications that pertain to the identified digital content from a social network system;

generating, by the at least one computing device, a score indicative of interest exhibited by a user population with respect to the identified digital content, the generating performed by processing the social network communications using natural language processing as part of machine learning; and

controlling, by the at least one computing device, output of the digital marketing content with respect to the identified digital content for consumption by the client device, the controlling based at least in part on the generated score.

2 . The method as described in claim 1 , wherein the score indicates an amount of interest exhibited by the user population with respect to the identified digital content.

3 . The method as described in claim 2 , wherein the controlling causes adjustment of a bid price to control output of the digital marketing content automatically and without user intervention based on the score.

4 . The method as described in claim 1 , wherein the score indicates a sentiment expressed by the user population in respective said social network communications regarding the identified digital content.

5 . The method as described in claim 4 , wherein the controlling causes adjustment of a bid price to control output of the digital marketing content automatically and without user intervention based on the score.

6 . The method as described in claim 1 , wherein the obtaining includes transmitting the content identifier to the social network system to cause the social network system to perform a search for the social network communications.

7 . The method as described in claim 6 , wherein the content identifier is configured to cause the social network system to locate at least one keyword as a hashtag that corresponds to the content identifier and perform the search using the hashtag.

8 . The method as described in claim 1 , wherein the digital content is digital video that is streamed to the client device and the receiving, the obtaining, the generating, and the controlling are performed during the streaming of the digital content to cause output of the digital marketing content in conjunction with the digital video.

9 . The method as described in claim 1 , wherein the natural language processing using machine learning includes statistical natural language processing by the at least one computing device in which probabilistic decisions are made based on weights associated with input features detected from the social network communications.

10 . In a digital medium environment to control output of digital marketing content, a method implemented by at least one computing device, the method comprising:

obtaining, by the at least one computing device, social network data describing a plurality of topics involving social network communications communicated via a social network system;

identifying, by the at least one computing device, which of the plurality of topics are relevant to the digital marketing content based on respective said social network communications;

generating, by the at least one computing device, a score indicating whether the identified topics are likely to have a positive or negative effect on conversion of a good or service associated with the digital marketing content, the generating based on natural language processing of respective said social network communications using machine learning; and

controlling, by the at least one computing device, output of the digital marketing content based at least in part on the score.

11 . The method as described in claim 10 , wherein the identification of the positive or negative effect as part of the generating is based on a sentiment expressed in respective said social network communications learned through the natural language processing using machine learning.

12 . The method as described in claim 10 , wherein the identifying is based on a keyword comparison between data describing the digital marketing content and the social network data.

13 . The method as described in claim 10 , wherein the identifying is performed based on natural language processing of the social network data and data describing the digital marketing content using machine learning.

14 . The method as described in claim 10 , wherein the plurality of topics are identified as trending by the social network system.

15 . In a digital medium environment to control digital marketing content output with respect to digital content, a system comprising:

means for obtaining social network communications from a social network system, the social network communications pertaining to digital content;

means for generating a score indicative of interest exhibited by a user population with respect to the identified digital content, the generating means including means for processing the social network communications using natural language processing as part of machine learning; and

means for controlling output of the digital marketing content with respect to the digital content based at least in part on the generated score.

16 . The system as described in claim 15 , wherein the score indicates an amount of interest exhibited by the user population with respect to the identified digital content.

17 . The system as described in claim 16 , wherein the controlling means causes adjustment of a bid price to control output of the digital marketing content automatically and without user intervention based on the score.

18 . The system as described in claim 15 , wherein the score indicates a sentiment expressed by the user population in respective said social network communications regarding the identified digital content.

19 . The system as described in claim 18 , wherein the controlling means causes adjustment of a bid price to control output of the digital marketing content automatically and without user intervention based on the score.

20 . The system as described in claim 15 , wherein the obtaining is based on a hashtag that is associated with the digital content.
