CT LIS: Learning Influences and Susceptibilities through Temporal Behaviors
ACM Transactions on Knowledge Discovery from Data(2019)
摘要
How to quantify influences between users, seeing that social network users influence each other in their temporal behaviors? Previous work has directly defined an independent model parameter to capture the interpersonal influence between each pair of users. To do so, these models need a parameter for each pair of users, which results in high-dimensional models becoming easily trapped into the overfitting problem. However, such models do not consider how influences depend on each other if influences are sent from the same user or if influences are received by the same user. Therefore, we propose a model that defines parameters for every user with a latent influence vector and a susceptibility vector, opposite to define influences on user pairs. Such low-dimensional representations naturally cause the interpersonal influences involving the same user to be coupled with each other, thus reducing the model’s complexity. Additionally, the model can easily consider the temporal information and sentimental polarities of users’ messages. Finally, we conduct extensive experiments on two real-world Microblog datasets, showing that our model with such representations achieves best performance on three prediction tasks, compared to the state-of-the-art and pair-wise baselines.
