Tweet propagation chain #54

Open arguscav opened 3 years ago

arguscav commented 3 years ago

Hi, thanks for sharing FakeNewsNet project.

I would like to know if there is any option to create a tweet propagation chain. Something like User A creates Tweet 1, User B retweets Tweet 1 resulting Tweet1-Retweet, User C retweets Tweet1-Retweet and so on. This would give us a tree or graph like structure.

Thanks much.

Hi @arguscav,

Did you manage to create such graph? I am interested in doing the same.

Thanks!

You can rebuild the graph with some rules. e.g., If User B follows User A, and User A's retweet is earlier than User B's retweet , it can be inferred that User B got information from User A. But there will be some errors.

But this method is cumbersome because it requires all user's follower information. Twitter API allows user get followers or friends ids with GET followers/ids or GET friends/ids. The rate limit is 15 requests in 15 mins to get 5000 user id per request. (It will take lots of time.)
