Leveraging Social Media Communities To Assist Coordination

Whom to coordinate with, Why and How

Image Source: http://www.dashe.com/blog/social-learning/how-social-networks-can-harness-the-power-of-weak-ties/

[Big] Citizen Sensing

• Do you know?

– #tweets In the first week of Hurricane Sandy?

– #tweets in the first two days of Oklahoma tornado?

[Big] Ad-hoc Community

Image: http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2012/04/how-we-identify-single-voices-in-a-crowd/

HOW BEST can responders hear and engage citizens of this community?

Me and @CeceVancePR are coordinating a clothing/food drive for families affected by Hurricane Sandy. If you would like to donate, DM us

Does anyone know how to donate clothes to hurricane #Sandy victims?

[REQUEST]

[OFFER]

Uncoordinated Engagement

• May lead to second disaster to be managed:– Under-supply of required demands – Over-supply of not required resources

• Hurricane Sandy example, “Thanks, but no thanks”, NPR, Jan 12 2013

• Story link:http://www.npr.org/2013/01/09/168946170/thanks-but-no-thanks-when-post-disaster-donations-overwhelm

Coordinated Engagement

• Critical function of coordination1. Identify

– Demand– Supply

2. Match the complementary intentions

3. Engage with the important actors – Demander & Supplier– Community Influencer with high network reach

Identifying and Matching demand-supply is like Search!

• Query: – Demand of food

• Results: – Messages and users who are supplying of food

Enabling Relief Coordination

• Challenges:1. Ambiguity in expression

2. Matching intentions3. Verify

Anyone know where the nearest #RedCross is? I wanna give blood today to help the victims of hurricane Sandy.

Enabling Relief Coordination

• Challenges:1. Identifying demand-supply intentions is tricky!2. Matching intentions is also context sensitive!

• E.g., different times and geography

3. Verify

Me and @CeceVancePR are coordinating a clothing/food drive for families affected by Hurricane Sandy. If you would like to donate, DM us. (DEMAND)

I want to send some clothes for hurricane relief (SUPPLY)

Enabling Relief Coordination

• Challenges:1. Identifying demand-supply intentions is tricky!2. Matching intentions is also contextual!3. Assessing trust during verification

Me and @xyz123 are coordinating a clothing/food drive for families affected by Hurricane Sandy. If you would like to donate, DM us. (DEMAND)

Should I trust?

Examples from our analysis during Oklahoma Tornado

• Machine Learning driven classification system

• 2.1 million tweets crawled in the first 48 hours

• 7% related to donations– 1.3% monetary requests– ~500 non-monetary requests– ~150 resource/service offers

Text \"FOOD\" to 32333, REDCROSS to 90999, or STORM to

80888 to donate $10 in storm relief. #moore #oklahoma

Bring Humans in Processing Loop

• Automation may not be enough for coordination– Missing information– Authentication– Verification

• Future: Create VerityClicker and VerifyClicker

Coordinated Engagement InterfaceVisualize Network reach of

Influencer

Categorizing Influencer by need type

View/Engage Influencer profiles and

their messages

Engagement Interface for Demand-Supply in Space & Time

What-Where-How-Who-Why Coordination Summarization of

Demand and Supply related messages

Contextual Information for a

chosen topical tags

Conclusion

• A focus on demand-supply centric technology for social media can assist coordination

• Actionable filtering rather than generic

“…humanitarians must adapt to the idea of information

as a basic need in humanitarian response…

…The network age [allows] humanitarian organizations

to…incorporate more information from people

affected by crisis into their decisions and

potentially enable communities to be true

stakeholders.”

CASE STUDY:Assessing the Viability of Crowdsourcing

During Elections in Kenya March 2013

Machine Learning

Methodology

• Broad keyword filters• Sampling the data• Annotating tweets• Build a classifier• Iterate the process to improve

accuracy

Advantages• Obtain unique incidence during an

election• Enable comparative analysis• Imperative to first responders• Solves the problem of information

overload

Information Dense Environments
