MINING SOCIAL MEDIA

Speaker: Cecile Paris, CSIRO

Seminar Date: Tuesday May 3 2016, 12.00pm

Abstract: There are about 2.8 Million Twitter users in Australia, all potentially writing posts on a regular basis. And this is only one of the available social media platforms. There is clearly too much data to monitor without computational support. In this talk, I will first provide a short overview of the Knowledge Discovery and Management research group. I will then focus on our work on social media analytics, together with the challenges of mining social media data.
