Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
During the last decade, “big data” has become a new ubiquitous term and a cross-disciplinary research topic. Big data are affecting research in social sciences, engineering, medicine, finance, business, politics, with an ultimate impact on our lives. The explosion of social media data and social media networks provides a proliferation of data in real time, also reflecting a significant aspect of our societal values and beliefs.
The aim of this Special Issue is to identify, record, and promote big data applications in real-life problems. Research dealing with emerging algorithms for big data processing and analysis, data utilization scenarios, needs analysis, obstacle identification, analysis and solutions, data visualization and analytics, use cases, evidence-based policy making, data-based ecosystems for solving social issues, and comparative studies concerning specific events (such as COVID-19) are foreseen. To this end, both review and ongoing research articles covering the following topics are welcome:
- Algorithms and systems for big data search;
- Big data analytics and visualization;
- Big data in politics;
- Big data and digital marketing;
- COVID-19 data processing;
- Datasets and algorithms’ benchmarking;
- Deep learning for big data;
- Fake social media account detection;
- Fake news detection;
- Forecasting election outcome through social media data;
- Graph theory techniques for big data;
- Social media data and crowdtagging;
- Topic identification in big data.
