Session Goal

The goal of this session was to optimize and document the email metadata extraction pipeline, focusing on efficiency and modular design.

Key Activities

  • Developed a modular Python pipeline for extracting, analyzing, and storing email metadata from an MBOX file.
  • Conducted graph analysis and generated insights from the extracted data.
  • Documented the process and outlined next steps for further analysis and automation.

Achievements

  • Successfully optimized the email metadata extraction process.
  • Enhanced the pipeline with graph analysis capabilities.
  • Generated actionable insights from the data.

Pending Tasks

  • Further automation of the analysis process.
  • Exploration of additional insights that can be derived from the metadata.

Additional Activities

  • Utilized Spider API for thematic crawling to gather information about institutions, including setup, authentication, crawling procedures, data extraction, and handling authenticated pages.
  • Conducted a crawling analysis of the ICC website, summarizing key observations about site structure, recent news, academic achievements, and potential uses for monitoring and analysis.
