MSU Graduate Theses
Social media has become a domain that involves a lot of hate speech. Some users feel entitled to engage in abusive conversations by sending abusive messages, tweets, or photos to other users. It is critical to detect hate speech and prevent innocent users from becoming victims. In this study, I explore the effectiveness and performance of various machine learning methods employing text processing techniques to create a robust system for hate speech identification. I assess the performance of Naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machines, Decision Trees, Random Forests, Logistic Regression, and K Nearest Neighbors using three distinct datasets sourced from social …

Using Textual Features To Predict Popular Content On Digg, Paul H. Miller
Paul H Miller
Over the past few years, collaborative rating sites, such as Netflix, Digg and Stumble, have become increasingly prevalent sites for users to find trending content. I used various data mining techniques to study Digg, a social news site, to examine the influence of content on popularity. What influence does content have on popularity, and what influence does content have on users’ decisions? Overwhelmingly, prior studies have consistently shown that predicting popularity based on content is difficult and maybe even inherently impossible. The same submission can have multiple outcomes and content neither determines popularity, nor individual user decisions. My results show …
