New benchmark dataset SURGE analyzes social media sentiment during events

Researchers have introduced SURGE, a new benchmark dataset designed for analyzing social media sentiment during public events. This dataset organizes over 800,000 posts from 67 events across five categories into time-series data, preserving the interaction structure between posts. SURGE aims to improve opinion forecasting and crisis response by enabling controlled studies on how post interactions influence collective dynamics and sentiment evolution. AI

IMPACT Enables more nuanced analysis of public opinion and crisis response by incorporating social interaction structures.

RANK_REASON The cluster contains a research paper introducing a new benchmark dataset for social media analysis.
