Those systems have been present in the daily lives of countless people helping them to share personal experiences, expectations and opinions. So high popularity has made of such networks complex systems. To understand the operation and phenomena that occur in such networks, there are metrics and models that capture aspects of their structures. The purpose of this work is to understand the complex reality of eBay ecommerce network, their connections and the dynamics of its users. Data were collected using a script developed in this work, and it resulted in a database of approximately 87 million transactions and 15 million different dealer users. From these data, the characterization was made estimating network metrics, like dealer users' degree distribution, that gave us key insights about the eBay negotiation network. We found that there are users who bought/sold for more than 100.000 different persons. We also found that a user A interacted over 4.000 times with another user B in just 3 months. Those and other interesting results, such as average distance and feedbacks ratings, were obtained, analyzed and discussed in this work.","PeriodicalId":114454,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian Symposium on Multimedia and the Web","volume":"734 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116074929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus automated analyses are used to identify information of interest, and one increasingly important approach is the polarity analysis. Polarity analysis is the classification of a text document in positive, negative, and neutral, according to a certain topic. This classification of information is particularly useful in the finance domain, where news about a company can affect the performance of its stocks. Although most of the methods in financial domain consider that the whole document is associated with a particular entity, this is not always the case. In fact, it is common that authors cite several entities in a single document and these entities are cited with different polarity. Accordingly, the objective of this paper was to study strategies for polarity detection in financial documents with multiple entities. Specifically, we studied methods based on learning of multiple models, one for each observed entity, using SVM classifiers. We evaluated models based on the partition of documents into fragments according to the entities they cite. We used several heuristics to segment documents based on shallow and deep natural language processing (NLP). We found that entity-specific models created by partitioning the document collection into segments outperformed the strategy based on the use of entire documents. We also observed that more complex segmentation using anaphora resolution was not able to outperform a low-cost approach, based on simple string matching.","PeriodicalId":114454,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian Symposium on Multimedia and the Web","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130703456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One key problem that has attracted researchers interest is Topic-based Influence Maximization, that refers to finding a small set of users on a social network that have the ability to influence a substantial portion of users on a given topic. The proposed solutions, however, are not suitable for large-scale social networks and must incorporate mechanisms for determining social influence among users on each topic of interest. Consequently, for these approaches, it becomes difficult or even unfeasible to deal quickly and efficiently with constant changes in the structure of social networks. This problem is particularly relevant as the topics of interest of users and the social influence they exert on each other for every topic are considered together. In this work, it is proposed a scalable solution, that makes use of data mining over an information propagation log, in order to directly select the initial set of influential users on a particular topic without the need to incorporate a previous step for learning users social influence with regard to that topic. As an additional benefit, the targeted seed set also offers an approximation guarantee of the optimal solution. Finally, it is presented a design of experiments over a data set containing information propagation data from a real social network. As main results, we have found some evidences that the proposed solution maintains a trade-off between scalability and accuracy.","PeriodicalId":114454,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian Symposium on Multimedia and the Web","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114724489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faced with this problem, a case study is carried out in order to compare two techniques for sentiment analysis: a SVM versus Naive-Bayes classifiers. Our study focused on tweets written in Portuguese during the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup, although our technique could be applied to any other language.
