论文摘要
2022年2月24日，俄罗斯入侵乌克兰。在随后的日子里，报道不断洪水从外行到新闻主播，冲突迅速升级为战争。俄罗斯在整个世界上面临着立即的反弹和谴责。尽管这场战争继续为乌克兰持续的人道主义和难民危机做出贡献，但在线空间中已经出现了第二个战场，这既是在使用社交媒体来获得冲突双方的支持以及信息战的背景下。在本文中，我们介绍了从2022年2月22日至2022年3月8日的6300万条推文集，我们正在发布供更广泛的研究社区使用。该数据集可在https://github.com/echen102/ukraine-russia上找到，并且随着战争的继续进行，将维护并定期更新。我们的初步分析已经显示了公众与俄罗斯国家赞助的媒体和其他已知会推动不可靠信息的媒体参与的证据。在俄罗斯入侵当天，前者的活动激增。我们的希望是，这个公共数据集可以帮助研究界进一步了解社交媒体在信息传播中所发挥的不断发展的作用，影响着竞选活动，基层动员等等。
On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. In the days that followed, reports kept flooding in from layman to news anchors of a conflict quickly escalating into war. Russia faced immediate backlash and condemnation from the world at large. While the war continues to contribute to an ongoing humanitarian and refugee crisis in Ukraine, a second battlefield has emerged in the online space, both in the use of social media to garner support for both sides of the conflict and also in the context of information warfare. In this paper, we present a collection of over 63 million tweets, from February 22, 2022 through March 8, 2022 that we are publishing for the wider research community to use. This dataset can be found at https://github.com/echen102/ukraine-russia and will be maintained and regularly updated as the war continues to unfold. Our preliminary analysis already shows evidence of public engagement with Russian state sponsored media and other domains that are known to push unreliable information; the former saw a spike in activity on the day of the Russian invasion. Our hope is that this public dataset can help the research community to further understand the ever evolving role that social media plays in information dissemination, influence campaigns, grassroots mobilization, and much more, during a time of conflict.
