Microsoft Research Open Data

July 13, 2018 By editor

  • 38 million tweets from the 2012 US presidential election
  • Profiles of 1 million celebrities (1000 with images)

Are there actually 1 million celebrities now?! Maybe someone can analyze the data to confirm. As in all data science we’ll need to start with firming up our definitions of terms—e.g “celebrity”.
