大数据技术在计算社会科学中的应用价值

The Value of Using Big Data Technologies in Computational Social Science

Eugene Ch'ng

摘要:

社交网络中的现象的发现促使人们对该领域重新产生了兴趣。然而,社交网络中的数据可能非常庞大,需要可扩展的大数据架构。相反,大数据的研究需要社交媒体数据的数量和速度来测试其可扩展性。不仅如此,适当的数据处理和采集数据集的挖掘涉及数据的多样性,准确性和可变性的复杂问题,之后必须进行可视化,然后我们才能看到我们的努力取得成果。本文介绍了从各种可扩展的开源技术集成的主题,多模式和纵向的社会媒体数据集。本文详细介绍了导致在Twitter社交网络中发现社交信息景观的过程,强调了处理社交媒体数据集的经验,使用有趣的方法使数据变得可管理。本文展示了使用可扩展的开源技术获取大量互联数据集用于社会科学研究的可行性和价值。

英文摘要:

The discovery of phenomena in social networks has prompted renewed interests in the field. Data in social networks however can be massive, requiring scalable Big Data architecture. Conversely, research in Big Data needs the volume and velocity of social media data for testing its scalability. Not only so, appropriate data processing and mining of acquired datasets involve complex issues in the variety, veracity, and variability of the data, after which visualisation must occur before we can see fruition in our efforts. This article presents topical, multimodal, and longitudinal social media datasets from the integration of various scalable open source technologies. The article details the process that led to the discovery of social information landscapes within the Twitter social network, highlighting the experience of dealing with social media datasets, using a funneling approach so that data becomes manageable. The article demonstrated the feasibility and value of using scalable open source technologies for acquiring massive, connected datasets for research in the social sciences.
