分析YouTube上新冠内容的语气、毒性与推荐机制,发现主流内容积极且安全。

COVID-19 on YouTube: A Data-Driven Analysis of Sentiment, Toxicity, and Content Recommendations

  • 用VADER、Detoxify和LDA分析视频描述的情感、毒性与主题分布。
  • 49.32%内容正面,仅0.91%具毒性,66.74%聚焦健康信息。
  • 推荐系统覆盖率达69%(5条)至79%(10条),兼顾相关性与安全性。

本研究对2023年1月至2024年10月期间YouTube上关于新冠疫情的内容进行了数据驱动分析,采用VADER进行情感分析,Detoxify检测毒性,以及使用隐含狄利克雷分布(LDA)进行主题建模。结果显示,49.32%的视频描述为正面,36.63%中性,14.05%负面,整体呈现积极支持性基调;毒性内容仅占0.91%,表明用户接触有毒内容风险极低。主题建模揭示两大主类:66.74%视频涵盖一般健康信息与疫情影响,33.26%聚焦新闻与实时更新,体现平台双重信息功能。研究还构建了基于TF-IDF与余弦相似度的推荐系统,并引入情感、毒性与主题过滤,实现69%的综合覆盖率,月均覆盖率持续高于85%,在推荐数量为5时覆盖69%,10时达79%。结果表明该框架能有效理解疫情话语并提供可靠、相关的推荐。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This study presents a data-driven analysis of COVID-19 discourse on YouTube, examining the sentiment, toxicity, and thematic patterns of video content published between January 2023 and October 2024. The analysis involved applying advanced natural language processing (NLP) techniques: sentiment analysis with VADER, toxicity detection with Detoxify, and topic modeling using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). The sentiment analysis revealed that 49.32% of video descriptions were positive, 36.63% were neutral, and 14.05% were negative, indicating a generally informative and supportive tone in pandemic-related content. Toxicity analysis identified only 0.91% of content as toxic, suggesting minimal exposure to toxic content. Topic modeling revealed two main themes, with 66.74% of the videos covering general health information and pandemic-related impacts and 33.26% focused on news and real-time updates, highlighting the dual informational role of YouTube. A recommendation system was also developed using TF-IDF vectorization and cosine similarity, refined by sentiment, toxicity, and topic filters to ensure relevant and context-aligned video recommendations. This system achieved 69% aggregate coverage, with monthly coverage rates consistently above 85%, demonstrating robust performance and adaptability over time. Evaluation across recommendation sizes showed coverage reaching 69% for five video recommendations and 79% for ten video recommendations per video. In summary, this work presents a framework for understanding COVID-19 discourse on YouTube and a recommendation system that supports user engagement while promoting responsible and relevant content related to COVID-19.
