Abstract

In recent years, with rapid growth of social networking websites, users are very active in these platforms and large amount of data are aggregated. Among those social networking websites, Facebook is the most popular website that has most users. However, in Facebook, the abusing problem is a very critical issue, such as Hate Groups. Therefore, many researchers are devoting on how to detect potential hate groups, such as using the techniques of social networks analysis. However, we believe content is also a very important factors for hate groups detection. Thus, in this paper, we will propose an architecture to for hate groups detection which is based on the technique of Social Networks Analysis and Web Mining (Text Mining; Natural Language Processing). From the experiment result, it shows that content plays an critical role for hate groups detection and the performance is better than the system that just applying social networks analysis.
