Open Source Web Data
SCOPE
Researchers face the challenges of making effective use of the enormous amount of Open Source Web Data in order to better understand and explain complex social systems. There are a wide variety of Open Source Web Data, including text information from traditional news media, network data from social media, individual profiles like age, occupation, location, and interests. It’s still challenging in automatically and effectively extracting, integrating and making use of information embedded in such heterogeneous data (structured and unstructured).
We invite the submission of papers that propose ways to address the variety of aspects in meeting these challenges.

The relevant topics include the following (but not limited to)
1.Text mining applications
2. Information extraction from the document corpora
3. Mining multi-relational data

5. Occupation prediction in Social Media
6. Recommendation in Social Media
