摘要:

我们提出了一个大型的纵向数据集的推文从两组用户被怀疑是隶属于ISIS。这些用户是根据先前的研究和旨在关闭ISIS Twitter帐户的运动确定的。这些用户在2014年至2015年期间至少与已知的ISIS账户有过一次接触,截至2021年仍处于活跃状态。他们中的一些人直接支持ISIS的用户和他们的推文,转发他们,一些引用ISIS推文的用户,与ISIS种子账户有不确定的联系。这项研究和数据集代表了分析ISIS数据的独特方法。虽然有很多关于ISIS在线活动的研究,但很少有研究关注个人账户。我们验证帐户的方法以及开发用于区分帐户功能的框架(例如,宣传与作战计划)为今后的研究提供了基础。我们对收集的数据进行了一些描述性统计和初步分析,以提供更深入的见解,并突出此类分析的重要性和实用性。我们进一步讨论了几个跨学科的潜在用例和研究方向。

英文摘要:

We present a large longitudinal dataset of tweets from two sets of users that are suspected to be affiliated with ISIS. These sets of users are identified based on a prior study and a campaign aimed at shutting down ISIS Twitter accounts. These users have engaged with known ISIS accounts at least once during 2014-2015 and are still active as of 2021. Some of them have directly supported the ISIS users and their tweets by retweeting them, and some of the users that have quoted tweets of ISIS, have uncertain connections to ISIS seed accounts. This study and the dataset represent a unique approach to analyzing ISIS data. Although much research exists on ISIS online activities, few studies have focused on individual accounts. Our approach to validating accounts as well as developing a framework for differentiating accounts' functionality (e.g., propaganda versus operational planning) offers a foundation for future research. We perform some descriptive statistics and preliminary analyses on our collected data to provide deeper insight and highlight the significance and practicality of such analyses. We further discuss several cross-disciplinary potential use cases and research directions.
