Modeling and Predicting Retweeting Dynamics via a Mixture Process

چکیده
Modeling and predicting retweeting dynamics in social media has important implications to an array of applications. Existing models either fail to model the triggering effect of retweeting dynamics, e.g., the model based on reinforced Poisson process, or are hard to be trained using only the retweeting dynamics of individual tweet, e.g., the model based on self-exciting Hawkes process. In this paper, motivated by the observation that each retweeting dynamics is generally dominated by a handful of key nodes that separately trigger a high number of retweets, we propose a mixture process to model and predict retweeting dynamics, with each subprocess capturing the retweeting dynamics initiated by a key node. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art model.

In this paper, we consider a fundamental social network issue that illustrates how information dynamically flows through a social media network. Inferring the number of times that a particular message posted by some specific user will be retweeted by his followers and predicting the number of readings of the posted message via various retweeting chains are central to understanding the underlyin...
متن کاملEntropy-based Classification of 'Retweeting' Activity on Twitter
Twitter is used for a variety of reasons, including information dissemination, marketing, political organizing and to spread propaganda, spamming, promotion, conversations, and so on. Characterizing these activities and categorizing associated user generated content is a challenging task. We present a information-theoretic approach to classification of user activity on Twitter. We focus on twee...
