Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a public health problem afflicting millions of people each year. It is especially prominent among military veterans. Understanding the language, attitudes, and topics associated with PTSD presents an important and challenging problem. Based on their expertise, mental health professionals have constructed a formal definition of PTSD. However, even the most assiduous...
Detection of interesting (e.g., coherent or anomalous) clusters has been studied extensively on plain or univariate networks, with various applications. Recently, algorithms have been extended to networks with multiple attributes for each node in the real-world. In a multi-attributed network, often, a cluster of nodes is only interesting for a subset (subspace) of attributes, andthis type of clusters...
Based on the existing research of Chinese text clustering, this paper proposes an improved algorithm for the optimization of short term semantic clustering based on social media. The method of weighted factor is introduced to optimize text distance formula and related mathematical proof, the calculation process optimization design from text, written text distance calculation algorithm, the simulation...
Social data from online social networks is expanding rapidly as the number of users and articles posted increases, making public opinion analysis a greater challenge. Real-time topic detection is a key part of public opinion analysis. The complex data processing involved in traditional clustering and text categorization can lead to time delays in topic detection. In this paper we construct similar...
Social networks are no longer a place where you can spend leisure time and chat with friends. It is also a business instrument in work with their audiences to increase brand recognition, total result from marketing and move sales up. For this purposes it's needed to make thorough analysis of the target audience, scan dozens of user profiles, reveal their interests, positions and estimate users LTV...
Recently, some researchers attempt to find a relationship between the evolution of rare events and temporal-spatial patterns of social media activities. Their studies verify that the relationship exists in both time and spatial domains. However, few of them can accurately deduce a time point when social media activities are highly affected by a rare event. Thus, it is difficult to characterize an...
Online social networks offer a rich data source for analyzing diffusion processes including rumor and viral spreading in communities. While many models exist, a unified model which enables analytical computation of complex, nonlinear phenomena while considering multiple factors was only recently proposed. We design an optimized implementation of the unified model of influence for vertex centric graph...
Modeling of data is an important step in process of interpreting the data and to understand the desired situation more clearly. The topic of social network structures is one of the highly studied subject and modeling is very important for social network mining. One of the modeling tools for such structures is Graphs. Graphs have been used for modeling and visualization tool of many structures such...
Social network analysis is an important set of techniques that are used in many different areas. One such area is intelligence and law enforcement where social network analysis is used to study various kinds of networks. One of the problems with social networks that are extracted from social media is that easily becomes very large and as a consequence difficult to analyze. Therefore, there is a need...
Social networking portals serve as an ideal platform for a person or an organization, to accomplish self-presentation and self-enhancement goals there by to understand their social relevance and hence, there have been many studies attempting to identify the relationship between different aspects of social media articles. Machine learning methods play a critical role in social media data analytics...
Due to the emerging Big Data paradigm, traditional data management techniques result inadequate in many real life scenarios. In particular, the availability of huge amounts of data pertaining to social interactions among users calls for advanced analysis strategies. Furthermore, heterogeneity and high speed of this data require suitable data storage and management tools to be designed from scratch...
Topological data analysis is a noble method to analyze high-dimensional qualitative data using a set of properties from topology. In this paper, we explore the feasibility of topological data analysis for mining social media data by investigating the problem of image popularity. We randomly crawl images from Instagram, convert their captions to 300 dimensional numerical vectors using Word2vec, calculate...
With the emergence of smartphones and location-based social networks, a large amount of user-generated data has become available to better understand city dynamics and help urban planning. While most of the related works choose to focus on specific dimensions of the data, the proposed models aim to benefit from the extent of the information existing in social platforms. Thus, this paper explores the...
Public sentiment permeated through social media is usually regarded as an important measure for public opinion monitoring, policy making, and so forth. However, the deluge of user-generated content in web, especially in social platform, causes great challenge to public sentiment analysis tasks. Therefore, Web-derived Emotional Word Detection (WEWD) is proposed as a fundamental tool aims to alleviate...
Currently, there are many approaches designed for the task of detecting communities in social networks. Among them, some methods only consider the topological graph structure, while others can take use of both the graph structure and the node attributes. In real-world networks, there are many uncertain and noisy attributes in the graph. In this paper, we will present how we can detect communities...
e accelerating urbanization procedure is pu ing increasing pres- sure on the management of cities. e administrative zones by which a city is managed are setup based on historical or political reasons, while the dynamics of people is hardly considered in the context. We exploit the widely available mobility data to divide the urban areas into zones by the joint K-mean clustering in origin and destination...
Friend recommendation service is a common and important demand for the users on various online platforms. Current studies mainly focus on making predictions with the neighborhood and path information derived from the personal relationship networks. However, the formed links do not indicate that two users are familiar with each other nor have intimate connections. Selective treatments are made according...
Social network is becoming indispensable of people's lives in recent years. Community detection on real network continues to be a hotspot in data ming domain. As users may join multiple social circles and interest communities, and an abundance of information can be a reflection of users' preference, heterogeneous information fusion and overlapping community detection are two key issues researchers...
With the development of internet, users can express their attitudes towards public events on the social media. Monitoring and analyzing the public opinion can provide effective support for government's policy making. In this paper, a novel online public opinion (OPO) analysis platform over multi-source text streams is proposed. This OPO platform contains three layers: data collection layer, data process...
Link clustering groups different edges in a graph according to their similarities. Link clustering can reveal the overlapping and hierarchical organizations in a wide spectrum of networks. This work studies how to improve efficiency of link clustering along three dimensions, algorithm, modeling, and parallelization, on multi-core machines. We evaluate the efficiency improved due to each of the three...
