Extracting Information from Twitter Screenshots
Screenshots are prevalent on social media as a common approach for information sharing. Users rarely verify before sharing a screenshot whether the post it contains is fake or real. Information sharing through fake screenshots can be highly responsible for misinformation and disinformation spread on social media.

This paper provides methods for extracting the tweet text, timestamp, and Twitter handle from a screenshot of a tweet.
