Minitrack 7: Social Media and Network Analytics
Online social networks (OSN) differ from traditional offline
social networks in structure and content. Online content (e.g.,
online reviews, eWOM via tweets, likes) that differ in nature,
frequency, reach, propagation speed, etc., by orders of magnitude,
can be continuously captured at the finest level of granularity.
Unstructured data in the form of text and emoticons communicated
over OSN provides a lean yet in many ways unique and emotionally
rich means of communication that has the potential to influence
message receivers (consumers, colleagues, stakeholders, etc.).
Such unstructured data in OSN presents research challenges that go
beyond sentiment analysis, and include nuanced aspects such as
uncertainty and specificity. Adoption of OSN affects behavior and
decision-making in unique ways. This minitrack invites original
research on the use of analytical techniques and theories of
social network analysis to understand social influence, behavior,
and decision-making, data models, network structure and
information diffusion, and social network analysis.
Topics may include the following:
– Emerging architecture for scalable social media analytics
– Online social networks and geospatial analytics
– Communities structure discoveries such as profiling participants
and subgroups
– User sentiment analysis, opinion mining, and recommendation
analysis
– Visual online social network analytics
– Use of theories to understand user communication patterns and
behavior in social media
– Network dynamics in the form of population and structural
effects
– Impact of online social networks on decision-making at
individual and organizational levels
– Influence of online social networks on markets
– Information privacy and security in online social networks
