Method and device for optimizing information spread between communities linked by interaction similarity

摘要

A device (OD), intended for optimizing diffusion of information into communities of social network(s) represented by a graph, comprises: - an analysing means (ICE) for analysing this information to determine at least one meaningful concept defining it, - a building means (IRE) for building an ordered list of communities according to numbers of determined meaningful concepts matching respectively concepts associated to the communities of the list, - a filtering means (FM) for defining a group of target communities as entry points for initiating the diffusion of the information, by filtering this built ordered list, - a simulation means (DGCIS) for simulating the information diffusion on the graph (G), and - a processing means (PM) for allowing the choice of at least one target community into the defined group from at least the simulated information diffusion, and then for diffusing the information in each chosen target community.
