Recent years have seen various rumor diffusion models being assumed in detection of rumor source research of the online social network. Diffusion model is arguably considered as a very important and challengeable factor for source detection in networks but it is less studied. This paper provides an overview of three representative schemes of Independent Cascade-based, Epidemic-based, and Learning-based to model the patterns of rumor propagation as well as three major schemes of estimators for rumor sources since its inception a decade ago.
Social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, has become one of the most important channels for information dissemination. However, these social media platforms are often misused to spread rumors, which has brought about severe social problems, and consequently, there are urgent needs for automatic rumor detection techniques. Existing work on rumor detection concentrates more on the utilization of textual features, but diffusion structure itself can provide critical propagating information in identifying rumors. Previous works which have considered structural information, only utilize limited propagation structures. Moreover, few related research has considered the dynamic evolution of diffusion structures. To address these issues, in this paper, we propose a Neural Model using Dynamic Propagation Structures (NM-DPS) for rumor detection in social media. Firstly, we propose a partition approach to model the dynamic evolution of propagation structure and then use temporal attention based neural model to learn a representation for the dynamic structure. Finally, we fuse the structure representation and content features into a unified framework for effective rumor detection. Experimental results on two real-world social media datasets demonstrate the salience of dynamic propagation structure information and the effectiveness of our proposed method in capturing the dynamic structure.
Classification problems have made significant progress due to the maturity of artificial intelligence (AI). However, differentiating items from categories without noticeable boundaries is still a huge challenge for machines -- which is also crucial for machines to be intelligent. In order to study the fuzzy concept on classification, we define and propose a globalness detection with the four-stage operational flow. We then demonstrate our framework on Facebook public pages inter-like graph with their geo-location. Our prediction algorithm achieves high precision (89%) and recall (88%) of local pages. We evaluate the results on both states and countries level, finding that the global node ratios are relatively high in those states (NY, CA) having large and international cities. Several global nodes examples have also been shown and studied in this paper. It is our hope that our results unveil the perfect value from every classification problem and provide a better understanding of global and local nodes in Online Social Networks (OSNs).
A common goal in network modeling is to uncover the latent community structure present among nodes. For many real-world networks, observed connections consist of events arriving as streams, which are then aggregated to form edges, ignoring the temporal dynamic component. A natural way to take account of this temporal dynamic component of interactions is to use point processes as the foundation of the network models for community detection. Computational complexity hampers the scalability of such approaches to large sparse networks. To circumvent this challenge, we propose a fast online variational inference algorithm for learning the community structure underlying dynamic event arrivals on a network using continuous-time point process latent network models. We provide regret bounds on the loss function of this procedure, giving theoretical guarantees on performance. The proposed algorithm is illustrated, using both simulation studies and real data, to have comparable performance in terms of community structure in terms of community recovery to non-online variants. Our proposed framework can also be readily modified to incorporate other popular network structures.
Protein interactions constitute the fundamental building block of almost every life activity. Identifying protein communities from Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) networks is essential to understand the principles of cellular organization and explore the causes of various diseases. It is critical to integrate multiple data resources to identify reliable protein communities that have biological significance and improve the performance of community detection methods for large-scale PPI networks. In this paper, we propose a Multi-source Learning based Protein Community Detection (MLPCD) algorithm by integrating Gene Expression Data (GED) and a parallel solution of MLPCD using cloud computing technology. To effectively discover the biological functions of proteins that participating in different cellular processes, GED under different conditions is integrated with the original PPI network to reconstruct a Weighted-PPI (WPPI) network. To flexibly identify protein communities of different scales, we define community modularity and functional cohesion measurements and detect protein communities from WPPI using an agglomerative method. In addition, we respectively compare the detected communities with known protein complexes and evaluate the functional enrichment of protein function modules using Gene Ontology annotations. Moreover, we implement a parallel version of the MLPCD algorithm on the Apache Spark platform to enhance the performance of the algorithm for large-scale realistic PPI networks. Extensive experimental results indicate the superiority and notable advantages of the MLPCD algorithm over the relevant algorithms in terms of accuracy and performance.
Over the past decade, online social networks (OSNs) such as Twitter and Facebook have thrived and experienced rapid growth to over 1 billion users. A major evolution would be to leverage the characteristics of OSNs to evaluate the effectiveness of the many routing schemes developed by the research community in real-world scenarios. In this demo, we showcase AlleyOop Social, a secure delay tolerant networking research platform that serves as a real-life mobile social networking application for iOS devices. AlleyOop Social allows users to interact, publish messages, and discover others that share common interests in an intermittent network using Bluetooth, peer-to-peer WiFi, and infrastructure WiFi. The research platform serves as an overlay application for the Secure Opportunistic Schemes (SOS) middleware which allows different routing schemes to be easily implemented relieving the burden of security and connection establishment.
