Using Content and Interactions for Discovering Communities in Social Networks.

Summary

In this paper, the authors study the problem of communities detection in social networks. They employ the probabilistic approach and propose a generative model that describes how users' messages and interactions are generated from the hidden membership of each user. The general model, or ``full model" as called by the author, has the generative process as follows.

  • For each of the topics, , sample topic as a dimensional multinomial distribution over words
  • For each of the communities, sample social type interaction as a dimensional multinomial distribution over type of interactions

  • For each of the communities, sample social type interaction recipient as a dimensional multinomial distribution over set of users

4. For the i th user ui, 1 � ui � U: (a) Sample a C dimensional multinomial, ~ �ui � DirC(�), representing the community proportions for that sender. (b) For each community c 2 C, sample a Z dimen- sional multinomial, ~�ui;c � DirZ(�), representing the topic proportions for community and sender. (c) For each post p (1 � p � Pi) generated by the sender ui: having Np words: i. Choose a community assignment cp � Mult( ~ �ui ) cp 2 [1 : C] for the post. ii. For each recipient slot i, 1 � i � Rp of the post p: A. Choose a recipient rp � Mult( ~ cp ) rpi 2 [1 : Rp] for the post.
