Cool! I had used Minizinc for cost optimization.

Sparsity and non linearities in data needs to be factored in. Then data aging and maturity. The way anomaly gets detected matters based on these. I have seen consistent Alert floods whereas in reality they were temporal fluctuations or temporal correlation between variables. Measurement and sampling time in timeseries across touch points is another important design decision.

1Cloudhub an AWS partner has a very affordable product called Costimize for AWS to help save costs. I will be happy to help. Contact Sankar.nagarajanAT1cloudhub.com

Secondly, you can use AWS spot instances for GPUs which costs less.

Suggestions to your business growth:

Surveys are the bread and butter for many market research companies. Most of the corporates / enterprises typically engage with smaller to larger (and many a times multiple) MR agencies. These MR companies can benefit from your service. To explore these companies, you can check out the MR members directory list from ESOMAR ,the voice of the MR (www.esomar.org), perhaps a membership / participating in their events may help you. Other site is agencyspotter.com

Explore publishing an article at the Greenbook blog run by Leonard Murphy which is very relevant to this case and he also runs the IIEX events globally ( http://iiex-na.insightinnovation.org/ ) where tools /services such as yours are very much the hot thing..

Check out Unilever Foundry https://foundry.unilever.com/ . You can sign up and explore if you can help solve some of their problems with your solution. They select and fund Pilot projects

We believe this is a significant finding . The contagion effect should be seriously looked at by organisations/brand which is engaging its (prospective) customers significantly through social media channels for marketing, campaigns and reputation management. A number of organisations today are involved in setting up dedicated customer care handles on FB,Twitter,G+ so on..

Social media is increasingly transferring the power to the end users/customers. Perhaps it's high time for organisations to make sure that their business creates either a positive or a negative contagion effect on FB and other social channels.

The contagion effect also means that probably we have more work to do on Social media monitoring and analysis front going forward!
