Abstract
In this thesis, the notion of considering internet memes as rich units of information is presented. Memes and internet memes are defined and discussed. Their research merits are indicated and the research questions are framed using the Macro-Meso-Micro framework. The micro level leads to the definition of requirements to enable such research. This results in the proposal of creating a pipeline to facilitate the construction of a meme knowledge graph. The foundation for such a pipeline is devised, and its initial components are created. The description of the pipeline provides an assessment of requirement compliance. Ultimately, the created components facilitate the collection of a rich internet meme dataset.
