The Delab Trees tool is a Python library for analyzing network data, with a particular focus on social media conversation structures. Within the TED-On framework, it is especially relevant at the construct definition stage, where it helps researchers assess the validity of individual nodes in conversation trees. It can also be used during data preprocessing and data analysis, for example to handle large-scale conversation trees, account for deleted posts, study interaction dynamics between authors, and support discussion mining.

Further information: This tool was developed as part of the KODAQS project, a partnership between GESIS, the University of Mannheim, and LMU Munich.
