Two of his research papers published in KDD-1998 and KDD-2004 received KDD Test-of-Time awards in 2014 and 2015. In 2013, he was elected chair of SIGKDD, ACM Special Interest Group on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining.
In a paper that Liu collaborated on, "Opinion Word Expansion and Target Extraction through Double Propagation", Qiu, Liu, Bu and Chen studied the relationship between opinion lexicons and opinion targets. Opinion lexicons are word sets and opinion targets are topics on which there is an opinion. The authors of that paper discuss how their algorithm uses a limited opinion word set with the topic and through double propagation, one is able to form a more detailed opinion word set on a set of sentences. Double propagation is the back and forth functional process between the word set and topic as the word set updates itself. Some algorithms require set rules and thus are limited in what they can actually do and in what service they provide through updated opinion lists. Their algorithm only requires an initial word set, which is updated through finding relations between the words in the set and the target word or vice versa. The algorithm is done on a word population such as a set of sentences or a paragraph.
