Abstract

The system, method, and computer program product are disclosed that track the evolution of a network over time through the analysis of media corpora associated with nodes of the network at each time slice. The media corpora may be analyzed to generate word clusters for each time slice that are then compared across time slices to determine how the network has evolved. The evolution may be tracked by determining the similarity of each word cluster of a particular time slice to each word cluster of another time slice. The similarity may be measured by a similarity score for each comparison that may be combined to determine an overall similarity of the network between the two time slices.
