Personalization is a crucial aspect of many online experiences. In particular, content ranking is often a key component in delivering sophisticated personalization results. Commonly, supervised learning-to-rank methods are applied, which…
Influence Maximization (IM) aims at finding the most influential users in a social network, i. e., users who maximize the spread of an opinion within a certain propagation model. Previous work investigated the correlation between influence…
Problem definition: Corporate brands, grassroots activists, and ordinary citizens all routinely employ Word-of-mouth (WoM) diffusion to promote products and instigate social change. Our work models the formation and spread of negative…
Due to much closer to real application scenarios,the budgeted influence maximization (BIM) problem has attracted great attention among researchers. As a variant of the influence maximization (IM) problem, the BIM problem aims at mining…
Influence Maximization Problem (IMP) is selecting a seed set of nodes in the social network to spread the influence as widely as possible. It has many applications in multiple domains, e.g., viral marketing is frequently used for new…
Information spread through social networks is ubiquitous. Influence maximiza- tion (IM) algorithms aim to identify individuals who will generate the greatest spread through the social network if provided with information, and have been…
In performative prediction, the deployment of a predictive model triggers a shift in the data distribution. As these shifts are typically unknown ahead of time, the learner needs to deploy a model to get feedback about the distribution it…
Multiplex influence maximization (MIM) asks us to identify a set of seed users such as to maximize the expected number of influenced users in a multiplex network. MIM has been one of central research topics, especially in nowadays social…
As a widely observable social effect, influence diffusion refers to a process where innovations, trends, awareness, etc. spread across the network via the social impact among individuals. Motivated by such social effect, the concept of…
Influence maximization is the task of finding a set of seed nodes in a social network such that the influence spread of these seed nodes based on certain influence diffusion model is maximized. Topic-aware influence diffusion models have…
The typical algorithmic problem in viral marketing aims to identify a set of influential users in a social network, who, when convinced to adopt a product, shall influence other users in the network and trigger a large cascade of adoptions.…
Given its vast application on online social networks, Influence Maximization (IM) has garnered considerable attention over the last couple of decades. Due to the intricacy of IM, most current research concentrates on estimating the…
Influence maximization aims to find a subset of seeds that maximize the influence spread under a given budget. In this paper, we mainly address the data-driven version of this problem, where the diffusion model is not given but needs to be…
Influence maximization(IM) problem is to find a seed set in a social network which achieves the maximal influence spread. This problem plays an important role in viral marketing. Numerous models have been proposed to solve this problem.…
The rise of Online Social Networks (OSNs) has caused an insurmountable amount of interest from advertisers and researchers seeking to monopolize on its features. Researchers aim to develop strategies for determining how information is…
In many real-world scenarios, an individual's local social network carries significant influence over the opinions they form and subsequently propagate. In this paper, we propose a novel diffusion model -- the Pressure Threshold model (PT)…
Online experimentation with interference is a common challenge in modern applications such as e-commerce and adaptive clinical trials in medicine. For example, in online marketplaces, the revenue of a good depends on discounts applied to…
Given a social network, where each user is associated with a selection cost, the problem of \textsc{Budgeted Influence Maximization} (\emph{BIM Problem} in short) asks to choose a subset of them (known as seed users) within an allocated…
Influence maximization in networks is a central problem in machine learning and causal inference, where an intervention on a subset of individuals triggers a diffusion process through the network. Existing approaches typically optimize…
The problem of Profit Maximization asks to choose a limited number of influential users from a given social network such that the initial activation of these users maximizes the profit earned at the end of the diffusion process. This…
