Claim 1:
2. The method according to claim 1 wherein the cold start audience generation component is comprised of a category growth audience comparison subcomponent that compares the early adopter audience generation method against an alternative cold start audience generation method wherein a comparing method first runs a grid search over a temporal parameter p, which parameterizes a proportion of time elapsed in an early adopter date range ea starting from a start of the date range ea0, and a size parameter s, which parameterizes a percentage of global consumption over all geodemographic groups and over the date range  captured by the geodemographic groups for both the early adopter audience generation method denoted by Pea(p,s) the alternative audience generation method denoted by Palt(p,s) obtain an optimal choice of p and s such that a difference Sea between Pea(p,s) and Palt(p,s) is greatest when considered over a distribution of all early adopter date ranges of all media IP assets in the category through a one-tailed paired t-test where Pea(p, s) and Palt(p,s) denote a share controlled by s of global consumption in a range (ea0, p*ea) captured by the geodemographic groups in the ranked lists by the early adopter audience generation method and the alternative cold start audience generation method, respectively with a null hypothesis that there is no difference between Pea(p, s) and Palt(p, s)+δea and when a greatest absolute value of δea that rejects the null hypothesis is positive, then the early adopter audience generation method is chosen as a final cold start audience generation method, otherwise the alternative cold start generation method is used to generate the category-specific cold start audiences.
