Article Citation - WoS: 2Privacy Issues in Post Dissemination on Facebook(Türkiye Klinikleri Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019) Sayın, Burcu; Şahin, Serap; Kogias, Dimitrios G.; Patrikakis, Charalampos Z.With social networks (SNs) being populated by a still increasing numbers of people who take advantage of the communication and collaboration capabilities that they offer, the probability of the exposure of people's personal moments to a wider than expected audience is also increasing. By studying the functionalities and characteristics that modern SNs offer, along with the people's habits and common behaviors in them, it is easy to understand that several privacy risks may exist, many of which people may be unaware of. In this paper, we focus on users' interactions with posts in a social network (SN), using Facebook as our research domain, and we emphasize some privacy leakages currently existing in Facebook's privacy policy. We also propose a solution to detected privacy issues, featuring a reference implementation of a tool based on a simulation, which visualizes the effect of potential privacy risks on Facebook and directs users to control their privacy. The proposed and simulated tool allows a post owner to observe the spreading area of his or her post depending on the selected privacy settings. Moreover, it provides preliminary feedback for all Facebook users that have interacted with this post, to make them aware of the possible privacy changes, aiming to give them a chance to protect the privacy of their interaction on this post by deleting it when an unwanted privacy change takes place. Finally, an online survey to increase privacy awareness in Facebook usage with over 500 volunteer participants has illuminated the need for such a tool or solution.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2A Comparative Study of Modularity-Based Community Detection Methods for Online Social Networks(CEUR Workshop Proceedings, 2018) Karataş, Arzum; Şahin, SerapDigital data represent our daily activities and tendencies. One of its main source is Online Social Networks (OSN) such as Facebook, YouTube etc. OSN are generating continuously high volume of data and define a dynamic virtual environment. This environment is mostly represented by graphs. Analysis of OSN data (i.e.,extracting any kind of relations and tendencies) defines valuable information for economic, socio-cultural and politic decisions. Community detection is important to analyze and understand underlying structure and tendencies of OSNs. When this information can be analysed successfully, software engineering tools and decision support systems can produce more successful results for end users. In this study, we present a survey of selected outstanding modularity-based static community detection algorithms and do comparative analysis among them in terms of modularity, running time and accuracy. We use different real-world OSN test beds selected from SNAP dataset collection such as Facebook Ego network, Facebook Pages network (Facebook gemsec), LiveJournal, Orkut and YouTube networks.
