Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Book chapter › Research › peer-review

Abstract

Users express and share sentiments electronically when they communicate within online social network applications. One way to analyze such interdependent data is focusing on the inter-user relationships by applying a sociological perspective based on social network analysis. Existing studies examined the existence or distribution of sentiments in online communication at a general level or in small observed groups.
