Graphical Modeling of Macro Behavioral Targeting in Social Networks

چکیده
We investigate a class of emerging online marketing challenges in social networks; macro behavioral targeting (MBT) is introduced as non-personalized broadcasting efforts to massive populations. We propose a new probabilistic graphical model for MBT. Further, a linear-time approximation method is proposed to circumvent an intractable parametric representation of user behaviors. We compare the proposed model with the existing state-of-the-art method on real datasets from social networks. Our model outperforms in all categories by comfortable margins.

Rule-based joint fuzzy and probabilistic networks
One of the important challenges in Graphical models is the problem of dealing with the uncertainties in the problem. Among graphical networks, fuzzy cognitive map is only capable of modeling fuzzy uncertainty and the Bayesian network is only capable of modeling probabilistic uncertainty. In many real issues, we are faced with both fuzzy and probabilistic uncertainties. In these cases, the propo...

متن کاملModeling Dynamic Social Networks with Vertex Evolution via Latent Graphical Models
We here consider the problem of modeling network evolution with joint edge and vertex dynamics. It is natural to expect that the accuracy of vertex prediction strongly affect the ability to predict dynamic network evolution accurately. A latent graphical model is here employed to model vertex evolution. This model family can incorporate dependence in vertex co-presence, of the form found in man...
