The use of an artificial neural network to detect automatically managed accounts in social networks

Abstract

The problem of detection of automatically managed accounts (bots) in social networks has been considered. The method of their detection based on machine learning methods is proposed. The paper describes an example of a method based on artificial neural network learning. The parameters of a page in a social network used to detect bots have been presented. An experimental evaluation of the proposed system performance is given that demonstrates a high level of detection of bots in social networks.
