الملخص	Social media network analysis applies social-network methods to the relationships among accounts on platforms — who follows, mentions, replies to, retweets, or shares whom — to reveal the structure of online conversation. By representing interactions as a graph and computing measures of centrality and community, it identifies influential actors, cohesive clusters, and the overall shape of public discourse around a topic.	Semantic network analysis represents the meaning of a text or corpus as a network of concepts connected by their co-occurrence or grammatical proximity, then uses network-analytic measures to reveal which ideas are central, how concepts cluster, and how shared meaning is structured. In communication research it is the standard way to map the conceptual architecture of media coverage, organizational discourse, and public conversation at scale.
