Poster: Detection of Cyberbullying in a Mobile Social Network: Systems Issues

Abstract

Cyberbullying is a major problem affecting more than half of all American teens, and has been attributed to suicidal behavior among teens. Instagram, a media-based mobile social network, is one of the most popular social networks used for cyberbullying. In this paper, we describe the development of classifiers to detect cyberbullying in Instagram. We identify systems issues that need to be considered in the design of a cyberbullying detection system.
