アブストラクト
Analyzing social interactions of CGM (Consumer
Generated Media) is important for encouraging commnication among
users.
In the case of question-answering forums, users and QA boards
constitute a heterogeneous network whose nodes are users/boards and
edges are authorship.
Discovering both user communities and board communities and finding
correlations between them will clarify their characteristics.
This paper describes an attempt for analyzing heterogeneous
social networks obtained from Yahoo! Chiebukuro (Japanese
Yahoo! Answers). A new measurement for the correlation between user
communities and board communities is defined, and characteristics of discovered
communities are analyzed using it.
