Extraction of Hidden Social Networks from Wiki-Environment Involved in Information Conflict

Social network analysis is a widely used technique to analyze relationships among wiki-users in Wikipedia. In this paper the method to identify hidden social networks participating in information conflicts in wiki-environment is proposed. In particular, we describe how text clustering techniques can be used for extraction of hidden social networks of wiki-users caused information conflict. By clustering unstructured text articles caused information conflict we create social network of wiki-users. For clustering of the conflict articles a hybrid weighted fuzzy-c-means method is proposed.
