Social network is a structure formed by a set (or groups of sets) of entities (e.g. people, organizations, etc.) with some patterns of social interaction. Social Network Analysis (SNA) is focused on uncovering these patterns through the use of network science and graph theory. In the last decades, online social networks (OSNs) have become the most widely used web platforms due to the variety of services they offer to their users. This explosion has led to the diversification of both content (text, images, audio and other) and the sources (e.g. newscasts, newspapers and other companies) in OSNs. The need for processing and analyzing this content as well as understanding its impact on users' lives, has allowed for the rapid development of various techniques for mining and analysis of social media data.

In this context, the Social Network and Media Analysis and Mining (SNMAM) provides a forum that brings both researchers and practitioners to discuss research trends and techniques related to the analysis and mining of social network and media data. The 5th SNMAM event will be organized as a track of SIMBig 2020 in Lima, Peru, as an interdisciplinary venue for computer scientists, computer engineers, software engineers and application developers who work on networks and web-based methods.

3- Exploratory and visual data analysis of social network and media data
4- Identification and discovery of dynamics and evolution patterns of social network and media data based on data mining and machine learning approaches
5- Topological and spatio-temporal aspects in social networks and social media
6- Large-scale graph, search and time series algorithms on social networks
7- Social network analysis and mining tasks:
- Anomaly and outlier detection
- Community discovery
