Abstract

One of the main research trends over the last years has focused on knowledge extraction from social networks users. One of the main difficulties of this analysis is the lack of structure of the information and the multiple formats in which it can appear. The present article focuses on the analysis of the information provided by different users in image form. The problem that is intended to be solved is the detection of equal images (although they may have minimal transformations, such as a watermark), which allows establishing links between users who publish the same images. The solution proposed in the article is based on the comparison of hashes, which allows certain transformations that can be made to an image from a computational point of view.
