Abstract
Businesses are currently using social media analytics (SMA) to develop insights for improving performance and productivity across different functions. The SMA knowledge is growing diversely, and there is a need to understand the trends and approaches holistically. The present paper offers a comprehensive review of the SMA empirical literature and directions for future research. The review is based on 54 papers selected out of 843 search results. The review focuses on different domains: industrial domains, data-mining objectives, use cases, and applications. Out of the studies, public administration and consumer discretionary sectors are the dominant ones with Twitter data being used in most of the analysis. Out of the possible techniques, classification techniques and regression models are more popular than others. Stakeholder engagement is the most focused theme in the research studies. The review also offers insights into which analytical approaches are being used in which industrial domains for specific decision making. It further suggests that novel methods, such as cross-media data classification, tags detection, label priority ranking, tweeting activity signatures, and geospatial data processing have been used less and could be further explored in future research. The review also offers implications for the decision sciences domain.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
