Challenges we ran into

Finding a way to retrieve Youtube short’s description information. Options include using the YouTube Data API for video details or employing web scraping if the API doesn’t suffice. Understanding YouTube's HTML structure is crucial, along with adhering to any usage restrictions.

Model user behavior: analyzes how users interact with YouTube Shorts, focusing on metrics like viewing duration, engagement (likes, comments, shares), and demographics. By applying data analytics and machine learning, trends can be identified to inform content recommendations and enhance user experience.

Training labeling algorithm: involves developing a machine learning model to categorize YouTube Shorts by content type. It begins with compiling a labeled dataset for supervised learning, allowing the algorithm to improve its classification accuracy. The goal is to automate labeling, making content easier to organize and discover.
