About the Detection of Malicious Social Bots Using Learning Automated with URL Feature in Twitter Network project
Detection of Malicious Social Bots Using Learning Automated with URL Feature in Twitter Network detects accounts that are not what they claim to be. Features of a profile and its behaviour are extracted and classified to expose automated, fake or cloned accounts.
In this build: Account behaviour and URL features are used to separate automated bot accounts from real users.
ProjectNet offers Detection of Malicious Social Bots Using Learning Automated with URL Feature in Twitter Network as a Natural Language Processing final year project for B.E / B.Tech (CSE, IT, AI & DS), BCA, MCA, M.Tech and B.Sc Computer Science. It comes with source code, a project report, a PPT and an installation guide, so you can set it up, understand every module and explain it confidently in your review and viva.
Problem statement
Bots and fake accounts spread spam, scams and misinformation and distort trends on social networks. Manual review cannot cope with the number of accounts, so an automatic detector is needed.
Existing system vs proposed system
Existing system
Platforms rely on user reports and fixed rules, which are slow and easy for sophisticated bots to bypass.
Proposed system
The proposed system extracts profile, behaviour and URL features, trains a classifier (with distance measures where applicable) and labels each account as genuine or suspicious.
Key features of Detection of Malicious Social Bots Using Learning Automated with URL Feature in Twitter Network
- Genuine versus fake / bot classification
- Profile, behaviour and URL feature extraction
- Classification and distance-measure algorithms
- Performance comparison across models
- Simple interface to test an account
- Charts of key features
System modules
| Module | What it does |
|---|---|
| Data collection | Loads labelled account data. |
| Feature extraction | Computes follower ratios, posting frequency, URL and profile features. |
| Preprocessing | Cleans and normalises the features. |
| Classification | Trains the classifier and applies distance measures. |
| Evaluation | Reports accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score. |
| Detection interface | Lets users enter account details and see the verdict. |
How the system works
- Account data is loaded.
- Features are extracted.
- Data is cleaned and normalised.
- The classifier is trained.
- Performance is evaluated.
- New accounts are tested and labelled.
