This study explores the potential of online social media to serve as a sphere for political discourse and investigates the extent to which everyday uses of online social networking sites can expose citizens to politically diverse viewpoints.  In addition, this study asks whether such crosscutting exposure in online social networks will act as a trigger or a muffler for political expression – that is, whether exposure political difference will stimulate or discourage political discussions.  With analyses of a sample of online social networking site users in the context of the 2012 presidential election in South Korea, this study explicates the link between crosscutting exposure and citizens’ political expressions in social media.  Results reveal that contrary to the predictions in previous literature, exposure to politically incongruent viewpoints in online social networking sites does not seem to undermine users’ expressive behaviors but instead positively contribute to political expression.  In addition, this study shows the significant role of citizens’ perceptions of candidate support in their own networks, and illustrates that the dynamics of political expression differ significantly depending on the users’ age.

Duplicate content or writing on online social networks is a material that shows up in many more than one location on Online Social Site, Pages etc. Nowadays Facebook is an online social networking site that connects people together during the form of expressing personal preferences and opinions as well as communication. In this research paper, we found detecting duplicate material in Facebook groups, pages, and trying to provide a solution for limiting this duplicate content, that is being posted to Facebook and other online social networks. We specified the solution to the issue in the first step and designed an algorithm called Restriction Algorithm for Duplicate Content, which is restricted to posting the copied content in more times on social networks like Facebook. In the second step, we have implemented it to validate our methodology and we have checked the identification of duplicate content of social media writing by using various social media posts as input tests and finally enriching the findings at a satisfactory stage. With optimal computation time, our proposed algorithm can handle large string sizes (more than 10,000 bytes). GUB JOURNAL OF SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING, Vol 6(1), Dec 2019 P 33-38

Social media is one of the most influential tool for sharing information across different regions among different users .The people sharing their interests in various aspects in online social networking platforms like Facebook, twitter etc. Therefore the usage of hate text steadily increasing. Nowadays it has been reviled unfair behavior of the users in social networking sites. The existence of abusive text on different online social networking platforms and identification of such text is a big challenging task. To understand the complexity of language constructs in different languages is very difficult .Already lot of research work has completed in English language. This paper gives detail analysis of detecting hate text in various languages Hindi, urdu, Arabic, Bengali, Telugu. We incorporated various kinds of ML and DL based algorithms to identify hate text in OSN’s. A review is done related to different classifiers where a comparison made between different models of ML, DL algorithms. Finally finds the accurate method to classify the text is offensive or not by finding the parameters i.e. accuracy and F1score

Abstract Online social networking platforms allow people to freely express their ideas, opinions, and emotions negatively or positively. Previous studies have examined user’s sentiments on these platforms to study their behaviour in different contexts and purposes. The mechanism of collecting public opinion information has attracted researchers to automatically classify the polarity of public opinions based on the use of concise language in messages, such as tweets, by analyzing social media data. In this paper, we extend the preceding work [1], by proposing an unsupervised approach to automatically detect extreme opinions/posts in social networks. We have evaluated our performance on five different social network and media datasets. In this work, we use the semi-supervised approach BERT to check the accuracy of our classified dataset. The latter task shows that, in these datasets, posts that were previously classified as negative or positive are, in fact, extremely negative or positive in many cases.

We suggest a gadget permitting OSN customers to own a right awaymanages at the messages published on their walls. It might be a bendy region that rule primarily based totally gadget are used to lets in customers to customize the filtering procedure implemented to their user’s profiles. A system gaining knowledge of method robotically labeling messages in help of content-primarily based totally filtering. Index Terms: content-primarily based totally filtering, filtering rule, filtering gadget, system gaining knowledge of, on-line social networks
