CooRTweet 2.0.2

Edit the function documentation to address specific issues and enhance clarity. This includes removing obsolete information about min_repetition in the detect_groups documentation and correcting typos in the vignettes.

CooRTweet 2.0.1

Fixed a bug that under certain circumstances prevented the number of shares from being calculated correctly with the accounts_stats function.

CooRTweet 2.0.0

A major release with many important breaking changes. Package users upgrading to version 2.0.0 should pay attention to the functions detect_groups and generate_coordinated_network

New features

• completely reworked the code that generates the coordination network. There is now a new function generate_coordinated_network
• The results from detect_groups can now be subset into “faster” subnetworks with the new function flag_speed_share
• The prep_data function helps to bring other social media data into the right shape

Changes

Most changes are related to two areas of improvement: the way how the coordination network is generated and naming conventions used in this package

• detect_coordinated_groups function was renamed to detect_groups, alognside we also renamed the min_repetition to min_participation to better reflect its meaning. The function generally performs still performs the same operation as before.
• generate_network was removed and replaced with generate_coordination_network, which is a completely rewritten approach to the network generation.
• We globally changed the wording of “user” to “account”, which is more faithful to the theoretical framework of this package. The term “account” describes the data much better.
• Therefore, the column formally named id_user (found in many functions) was now renamed to account_id

Dropped Features

We decided to drop the feature to detect cotweeting behaviour based on text similarity for this release. In practical applications, the detect_similar_text function was not performing up to our standards and we are currently looking into a fresh approach to implement such a feature.

CooRTweet 1.4.0

This is a minor release adding new features

New features

• Added detect_similar_text() function that finds tweets based on text similarity (cotweets). Refer to the documentation for details.
• The reshape_tweets() function was extended with the intent = "cotweet", which reformats your data to fit in the detect_similar_text() function

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
