Project

Modelling Diffusion and Propagation of Affect in Social Networks

Objective

The goal of this project is to model diffusion and propagation of text having affect, such as hate, anger, sarcasm on online social networks. As part of this project, we are going to work on multiple aspects of diffusion and propagation such as life cycle analysis of tweets having affect, influence analysis with respect to affect, how tweets having affect propagate on the network and figuring out the role of affect in homophily and community formation.

Outcome

Outcome of this projects are two, 1) Code which can be used for modelling diffusion and propagation and 2) Publish a paper in a Computer Science Conference
