Information Propagation Prediction Based on Key Users Authentication in Microblogging

Abstract EN

In microblogging, key users are a significant factor for information propagation.

Key users can affect information propagation size while retweeting the information.

In this paper, to predict information propagation, we propose a novel linear model based on key users authentication.

This model mines key users to dynamically improve the linear model while predicting information propagation.

So our model can not only predict information propagation but also mine key users.

Experimental results show that our model can achieve remarkable efficiency on predicting information propagation problem in real microblogging networks.

At the same time, our model can find the key users who affect information propagation.
