We are putting the finished touches on our book, Data-Driven Personas by Bernard J. Jansen, Joni O. Salminen, Soon-Gyo Jung, and Kathleen Guan, Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU) and University College London. Morgan & Claypool Publishers.
Here’s how it all began!
“In November 2015, a chance meeting between Dr. Jim Jansen and representatives of AJ+, an Al Jazeera social media channel, led to a discussion of the difficulties of using the many analytics platforms available. It was at that meeting the concept of Automatic Persona Generation (APG) emerged. That meeting led to a set of algorithmic approaches to improve user understanding by presenting analytics and numbers in a form that most people can relate to—another person!”
