Weibo Information Propagation Dissemination Based on User Behavior Using ELM

Abstract EN

Information dissemination prediction based on Weibo has been a hot topic in recent years.

In order to study this, people always extract features and use machine learning algorithms to do the prediction.

But there are some disadvantages.

Aiming at these deficiencies, we proposed a new feature, the dependency between the Weibos involved in geographical locations and location of the user.

We use ELM to predict behaviors of users.

An information dissemination prediction model has also been proposed in this paper.

Experimental results show that our proposed new feature is real and effective, and the model we proposed can accurately predict the scale of information dissemination.

It also can be seen in the experimental results that the use of ELM significantly reduces the time, and it has a better performance than the traditional method based on SVM.
