Abstract

Unlimited amount of unstructured data is being captured and analyzed over social media. The paper highlights the issue of lack of standard quality control approaches that could be utilized for all social media sites. This is due to the variety of formats of big data acceptable over these sites. The issue reveals a challenge not only in the capture of big data but also in the analysis and yield of valuable data, which affect decision-making. The paper reviews a collection of archived documents in the field of big data and social media. This paper presents a framework identifying the issues of quality analysis of big data on social media, examining current techniques used by social media companies to capture and analyze big data, and mapping social media sites and the appropriate combinations of big data capture and analysis techniques with the data quality control requirements.
