Analyzing Twitch Channel Viewership with Python and Intel

5 Mar 2019CPOL 6.4K   2  
Jeff pulls together what he's learned about Python and Jupyter notebooks to do some analysis on the viewership of his Twitch channel. What factors can he alter to increase viewership?

This article is in the Product Showcase section for our sponsors at CodeProject. These articles are intended to provide you with information on products and services that we consider useful and of value to developers.

Using Docker, Jupyter Notebooks, and the Intel Distribution for Python Jeff looks at the past performance of his Twitch stream to look at the number of users chatting, or number of chat messages there are to determine how long people stay viewing. Does that impact the maximum number of viewers, or average number, if they get talking about something that's interesting?

Jeff uses a Python model with linear regression with the Intel Python distribution to make a prediction based on his data to see if he can get more viewership on his Twitch channel.
