Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A social network is a digital platform for creating and maintaining relationships between individuals or businesses, allowing users to share information and interact with each other. These platforms take many forms and have many purposes, and they typically offer features such as user profiles, friend connections, content sharing, group participation, and message sending. The platforms for these social networks have hundreds of millions of active users worldwide, and the development of social media has significantly changed the paradigm of communication and information sharing. In particular, the analysis of big data generated by social networks is very important and is becoming more valuable through machine learning, deep learning, etc. This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of the latest technologies and trends in the ever-changing world of social networks and big data processing.
The main topics include, but are not limited to:
- Analyzing graph data to identify patterns and connections in networks;
- Real-time analytics and decision making using big data mining techniques;
- Social influence and opinion analysis;
- Text and sentiment analysis using large amounts of text data;
- Privacy and security with large-scale data collection and analysis;
- Applications of machine learning and deep learning;
- Fake news and information reliability;
- Extended reality experiences utilizing social media, AR, and VR;
- Applied technologies related to social networks and big data.
