Abstract:

To solve the problem of low precision on information propagation prediction caused by frustrated link prediction in social networks, a new approach, based on time-series analysis, combined with information novelty, is proposed with no requiring the knowledge of social network.When the node is infected, the global influence function of a node is estimated. The overall propagation volume of information is predicted. Simulations on dataset about news articles and blogs show that the proposal can accurately and reliably predict the temporal variations of information diffusion.

Key words: information diffusion prediction, time-series analysis, information novelty, influence propagation
