Data science is dipping its quill into the movies. Researchers are building models of the emotional trajectories of films by inputting data sets of over a thousand successful movies and using the machine learning outcomes to shape original scripts and try and predict box office success. A panel of researchers will discuss the work going on in this field and examine recent findings.
