Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to project ratings for future broadcasts of media. Disclosed example methods include normalizing, with a processor, audience measurement data corresponding to media exposure data, social media exposure data and programming information associated with a future quarter to determine normalized audience measurement data. Disclosed example methods also include classifying a media asset based on the programming information to determine a media asset classification. Disclosed example methods also include building, with the processor, a projection model based on a first subset of the normalized audience measurement data, the first subset of the normalized audience measurement data associated with a first time frame relative to the future quarter, the first subset of the normalized audience measurement data based on the media asset classification, and applying, with the processor, the programming information to the projection model to project ratings for the media asset.
