douyu-data

This dataset is collected from <strong>Douyu</strong>("https://www.douyu.com"), a crowdsourced live video streaming platform in China, where viewers can post <strong>Danmu</strong> while watching live video. It refers to a commentary sharing mechanism in which a viewer can post comments directly on the video frames when watching it, and the comments will slide over the video screen from right to left in real time. Besides posting comments, Douyu allows viewers to donate monetary virtual gifts to broadcasters.

<ul>
<li>Danmu: the comment text posted by a viewer in the channel, as well as the timestamp and ID of the viewer who posts Danmu</li>
