Understanding what the world feels!
Welcome to Narrative Economics! We are a research group initially founded at UCLA in sunny California in late 2017 with a goal to study the creation, spread and propagation of narratives and how they create socio-political and economic impact in the world. Our work builds on the research published by Nobel Laureate Professor of Economics Robert Shiller in early 2017, and on advancement in Large Language Models especially with the breakthrough from Google's paper: Transformer: A Novel Neural Network Architecture for Language Understanding (Aug 2017).
​
Our Narrative Analytics Platform, based on proprietary cutting-edge Natural Language Understanding and Artificial Intelligence technologies, enables investment managers, product managers, and brand managers to objectively understand feelings, emotions, and actions of customers and to drive the narrative suitable to their businesses, a process that is not feasible through the traditional means in this increasingly complex and fast paced world.
