numerati

   Also found in: Legal 0.01 sec.
numerati
The people who make predictions based on a numerical analysis of a subject. Coined by Stephen Baker, who wrote "Numerati" in 2008, his book explains how the numerati turn people into numbers to determine their job capabilities, shopping habits, voter preferences and medical indications. It also deals with spotting terrorists, finding a mate and interpreting blog data to determine the success of marketing campaigns. See Illuminati.

Nato con una struttura tradizionale viene, dopo la lettura del teorico russo, diviso in tre tempi; ciascun tempo e suddiviso in capitoletti numerati e titolati che assomigliano ai fotogrammi di una sequenza; questi ultimi non rispettano la successione temporale ragion per cui il lettore si vede costretto a riordinare le analessi e prolessi del racconto.
Stephen Baker, BusinessWeek writer and author of The Numerati, discusses how sophisticated mathematicians and computer scientists are analyzing personal data to provide insights and predictions to retailers, political campaigns, employers and others.
Esempi del criterio adottato sono la numerazione dei paragrafi in gruppi tematici, gli elenchi di dati numerati a margine, l'impiego di frecce per evidenziare caratterizzazioni di significato, la segnalazione in colonne delle voci dialettali seguite dal significato e parafrasi in italiano, l'impiego ragionato del grassetto e del corsivo, l'uso di figure e inserti testuali.
