Data-Driven Engineering of Social Dynamics: Pattern Matching and Profit Maximization
In this paper, we define a new problem related to social media, namely, the data-driven engineering of social dynamics. More precisely, given a set of observations from the past, we aim at finding the best short-term intervention that can lead to predefined long-term outcomes. Toward this end, we propose a general formulation that covers two useful engineering tasks as special cases, namely, pa...
متن کاملSocial Welfare and Profit Maximization from Revealed Preferences
Consider the seller’s problem of finding “optimal” prices for her (divisible) goods when faced with a set of consumers, given that she can only observe their purchased bundles at set prices, i.e., access to only revealed preferences (demand oracle). We study both social welfare and profit maximization under this setting, assuming concave valuation function of consumers and convex production cos...
متن کاملTowards Profit Maximization for Online Social Network Providers
Online Social Networks (OSNs) attract billions of users to share information and communicate where viral marketing has emerged as a new way to promote the sales of products. An OSN provider is often hired by an advertiser to conduct viral marketing campaigns. The OSN provider generates revenue from the commission paid by the advertiser which is determined by the spread of its product informatio...
متن کاملPattern Driven Solution Engineering
Over the last decade, application development has depended largely on the use-case driven OO software engineering methodology (http://www.aw.com/catalog/ academic/product/1,4096,0201544350,00.html) along with the many patterns for designing reusable software (http://www.awprofessional.com/catalog/ product.asp?product_id={E1CD5BE7-E008-481B-8D0C-8E80CE9978F9}.) Most of the innovations during thi...
متن کاملPattern-Driven Reverse Engineering
A fundamental weakness of conventional reverse engineering approaches is the lack of support in identifying program structures and recurring patterns. The integration of human domain knowledge represented via patterns can significantly improve design recovery results. The recognition of a program’s design leads to recurring patterns that, at present, have to be identified in demanding tasks by ...
