Dynamic Analysis of User-Role and Topic-Influence for Topic Propagation in Social Networks

Hot events spread quickly on social networks. Predicting event diffusion on social networks, also known as topic propagation, is an important task. The two important factors that affect topic propagation are users and topics, and both users’ roles and topics’ influences are tim...

description Hot events spread quickly on social networks. Predicting event diffusion on social networks, also known as topic propagation, is an important task.
