Spatio-temporal Feature Based Emotional Contagion Analysis and Prediction Model for Online Social Networks
-
摘要: 社交网络用户情绪传播与用户的空间距离和时间跨度有关，并且受到多种交互机制的影响.从大规模社交网络数据中提取情绪传播的时空特征，研究用户行为对情绪传播的影响，对预测情绪传播趋势具有实际意义.利用线性回归获取的各行为子层的情绪传输率之间存在差异.提出一种基于多层社交网络的情绪传播模型，被称为ECM模型（Emotional contagion model）.该模型包括三个行为子层，每层的拓扑结构各不相同，由该行为的交互历史决定.在真实数据上对ECM模型进行仿真分析，可以获得社交网络中情绪传播的过程与规律：1）中性情绪用户所占比例随时间逐渐增大，接近57.1%，而正向情绪与负向情绪比例始终接近.2）情绪传输率越大，用户情绪更容易受到其他用户的影响而发生变化；初始情绪越中立的用户，在演化过程中情绪波动越小，而初始情绪极性越大的用户情绪波动越大.此外，通过实验对比该模型与其他情绪传播模型，表明ECM模型更加接近真实数据，对社交网络中情绪传播具有较好的预测效果，预测准确率相比其他模型可以提高1.8%~7.8%.Abstract: Users' emotion in social networks is related to spatial distance and time span, and affected by multiple interaction mechanisms. It has practical significance to extract the spatio-temporal features from large-scale social networks and study the influence of users' behaviors on emotional contagion in order to predict the trend of emotional contagion. The transmisibility values on different behavioral layers are calculated by linear regression and the results show the differences between these values. An emotional contagion model called ECM on multilayer social networks is proposed. It consists of three behavioral layers with different topologies depending on users' interaction history. By simulation on real dataset, it is discovered that, 1) the proportion of users with neutral emotion is gradually increased with time and reaches 57.1% while the proportion of positive emotion is comparable to that of negative emotion from beginning to end; 2) users' emotion is more likely to be influenced by other users when transmissibility becomes larger and users with initial polar emotion fluctuate more drastically than users with initial neutral emotion. In order to show the advantages of the proposed model, it is compared with other emotional contagion models. The results demonstrate that the proposed model approximates to the real data of emotional contagion on social networks, and also shows better predictive performance of emotional contagion. The prediction accuracy is increased by 1.8%~7.8%.
