Reddit-TUDFE: practical tool to explore Reddit usability in data science and knowledge processing

ABSTRACT This contribution argues that Reddit, as a massive, categorized, open-access dataset, can be used to conduct knowledge capture on “almost any topic”. Presented analysis, is based on 180 manually annotated papers related to Reddit and data acquired from top databases of scientific papers. Moreover, an open source tool is introduced, which provides easy access to Reddit resources, and exploratory data analysis of how Reddit covers selected topics.
