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…
Influence Maximization (IM) is a classical combinatorial optimization problem, which can be widely used in mobile networks, social computing, and recommendation systems. It aims at selecting a small number of users such that maximizing the…
Nowadays, organizations use viral marketing strategies to promote their products through social networks. It is expensive to directly send the product promotional information to all the users in the network. In this context, Kempe et al.…
Influence Maximization (IM) is the task of determining k optimal influential nodes in a social network to maximize the influence spread using a propagation model. IM is a prominent problem for viral marketing, and helps significantly in…
A social network (SN) is a social structure consisting of a group representing the interaction between them. SNs have recently been widely used and, subsequently, have become suitable and popular platforms for product promotion and…
Influence Maximization is an extensively-studied problem that targets at selecting a set of initial seed nodes in the Online Social Networks (OSNs) to spread the influence as widely as possible. However, it remains an open challenge to…
Since its introduction in 2003, the influence maximization (IM) problem has drawn significant research attention in the literature. The aim of IM is to select a set of k users who can influence the most individuals in the social network.…
Influence maximization (IM) is the problem of finding for a given $s\geq 1$ a set $S$ of $|S|=s$ nodes in a network with maximum influence. With stochastic diffusion models, the influence of a set $S$ of seed nodes is defined as the…
Aiming at selecting a small subset of nodes with maximum influence on networks, the Influence Maximization (IM) problem has been extensively studied. Since it is #P-hard to compute the influence spread given a seed set, the state-of-the-art…
The problem of influence maximization is to select the most influential individuals in a social network. With the popularity of social network sites, and the development of viral marketing, the importance of the problem has been increased.…
Influence Maximization(IM) aims to identify highly influential nodes to maximize influence spread in a network. Previous research on the IM problem has mainly concentrated on single-layer networks, disregarding the comprehension of the…
Given a social network $G$ and an integer $k$, the influence maximization (IM) problem asks for a seed set $S$ of $k$ nodes from $G$ to maximize the expected number of nodes influenced via a propagation model. The majority of the existing…
Moment-based distributionally robust optimization (DRO) provides an optimization framework to integrate statistical information with traditional optimization approaches. Under this framework, one assumes that the underlying joint…
We initiate a systematic study on $\mathit{dynamic}$ $\mathit{influence}$ $\mathit{maximization}$ (DIM). In the DIM problem, one maintains a seed set $S$ of at most $k$ nodes in a dynamically involving social network, with the goal of…
Influence maximization in complex networks, i.e., maximizing the size of influenced nodes via selecting K seed nodes for a given spreading process, has attracted great attention in recent years. However, the influence maximization problem…
The (R, s, S) is a stochastic inventory control policy widely used by practitioners. In an inventory system managed according to this policy, the inventory is reviewed at instant R; if the observed inventory position is lower than the…
We consider stochastic influence maximization problems arising in social networks. In contrast to existing studies that involve greedy approximation algorithms with a 63% performance guarantee, our work focuses on solving the problem…
The influence maximization (IM) problem involves identifying a set of key individuals in a social network who can maximize the spread of influence through their network connections. With the advent of geometric deep learning on graphs,…
The influence maximization (IM) problem aims at finding a subset of seed nodes in a social network that maximize the spread of influence. In this study, we focus on a sub-class of IM problems, where whether the nodes are willing to be the…
Influence maximization (IM) is a fundamental problem in complex network analysis, with a wide range of real-world applications. To date, existing approaches to influential node identification in IM have predominantly relied on standard…
