Event popularity prediction over social media is crucial for estimating information propagation scope, decision making, and emergency prevention. However, existing approaches only focus on predicting the occurrences of single attribute such as a message, a hashtag or an image, which are not comprehensive enough for representing complex social event propagation. In this paper, we predict the event popularity, where an event is described as a set of messages containing multiple hashtags. We propose a novel hashtag-influence-based event popularity prediction by mining the impact of an influential hashtag set on the event propagation. Specifically, we first propose a hashtag-influence-based cascade model to select the influential hashtags over an event hashtag graph built by the pairwise hashtag similarity and the topic distribution of event-related hashtags. A novel measurement is proposed to identify the hashtag influence of an event over its content and social impacts. A hashtag correlation-based algorithm is proposed to optimize the seed selection in a greedy manner. Then, we propose an event-fitting boosting model to predict the event popularity by embedding the feature importance over events into the XGBOOST model. Moreover, we propose an event-structure-based method, which incrementally updates the prediction model over social streams. We have conducted extensive experiments to prove the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Group recommendation has become highly demanded when users communicate in the forms of group activities in online sharing communities. These group activities include student group study, family TV program watching, friends travel decision, etc. Existing group recommendation techniques mainly focus on the small user groups. However, online sharing communities have enabled group activities among thousands of users. Accordingly, recommendation over large groups has become urgent. In this paper, we propose a new framework to accomplish this goal by exploring the group interests and the connections between group users. We first divide a big group into different interest subgroups, each of which contains users closely connected with each other and sharing the similar interests. Then, for each interest subgroup, our framework exploits the connections between group users to collect a comparably compact potential candidate set of media-user pairs, on which the collaborative filtering is performed to generate an interest subgroup-based recommendation list. After that, a novel aggregation function is proposed to integrate the recommended media lists of all interest subgroups as the final group recommendation results. Extensive experiments have been conducted on two real social media datasets to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract Event detection over microblogs has attracted great research interest due to its wide application in crisis management and decision making etc. In natural disasters, complex events are reported in real time on social media sites, but these reports are invisible to crisis coordinators. Detecting these crisis events helps watchers to make right decisions rapidly, reducing injuries, deaths and economic loss. In sporting activities, detecting events helps audiences make better and more timely game viewing plans. However, existing event detection techniques are not effective at handling complex social events that evolve over time. In this paper, we propose an event detection method that takes advantage of retweeting behavior for handling the events evolution. Specifically, we first propose a topic model called RL-LDA to capture the social media information over hashtag, location, textual and retweeting behavior. Using RL-LDA, a complex event can be well handled by exploring the correlation between retweeting behavior and the event. Then to maintain the RL-LDA in a dynamic environment, we propose a dynamic update algorithm, which incrementally updates events over real time streams. Experiments over real-world datasets show that RL-LDA detects the temporal evolution of complex events effectively and efficiently. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper investigates how social images and change detection techniques can be applied to identify the damage caused by natural disasters for disaster assessment. We propose a multi-step image matching-based framework (MSIM), which takes advantages of fast clustering, near duplicate image detection and robust boundary matching for the change detection in disasters. We first model the social images by exploiting their tags and locations. After that, we propose a recursive 2-means algorithm over the new data model, and refine the near duplicate detection by local interest point-based matching over image pairs in neighboring clusters. Finally, we propose a novel boundary representation model called relative position annulus (RPA), which is robust to boundary rotation, location shift and editing operations. A new RPA matching method is proposed by extending dynamic time wrapping (DTW) from time to position annulus. We have done extensive experiments to evaluate the high effectiveness and efficiency of our approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

For the analysis of problems encompassing linear first-order parabolic systems involving the time dimension, the present exposition describes the evolution of and synthesis leading to a general unified mathematical framework and design of computational algorithms. In our previous efforts, various issues and the general classification and characterization of time-discretized operators were addressed, and the theoretical developments emanated from a generalized time-weighted residual philosophy which described the underlying consequences. Toward this end, in this article, for the first time, we provide alternative new perspectives and formalism via the notions of (1) the resulting size of the equation system and (2) the associated number of system solve(s). Although the time-weighted residual philosophy described an approach and the underlying consequences, from the new perspectives, the general design of computational algorithms is outlined in this article. A generalized stability and accuracy limitation theorem is also highlighted for linear transient algorithms encompassing first-order parabolic systems. Characterization as related to computational algorithms pertains to that which not only permits the general classification to be established but also provides the underlying basis for their subsequent design.

Emanating from the Boltzmann transport equation, a new C- and F-processes heat conduction constitutive model is derived. The model acknowledges the notion of the simultaneous coexistence of both the slow Cattaneo-type C-processes and fast Fourier-type F-processes in the mechanisms of heat conduction. The C- and F-processes heat conduction constitutive model and the corresponding temperature equation that results from coupling the constitutive model with the energy equation naturally lead to a generalization of the macroscale in space one-temperature theory for heat conduction in solids of the Jeffreys'-type model, Cattaneo model, and the Fourier model for heat conduction in solids. This is unlike the Jeffreys'-type phenomenological model, which cannot reduce to the classical Fourier model (but only to a Fourier-like representation with relaxation) and it cannot explain the underlying physics associated with the C- and F-processes model. Additionally, the microscale in space two-temperature theory for pulse heating of metals is also highlighted via the C- and F-processes heat conduction constitutive model. Emphasis is placed on the development of a new C- and F-processes heat conduction model based on generalized thermoelastic theory to study the dynamic thermoelastic behavior of solids with special features that can lead to and explain the classical and nonclassical dynamic thermoelastic theories. Finally some conceptual pitfalls that appear in the literature are addressed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With the development of graph neural network, researchers begin to use bipartite graph to model user-item interactions for recommendation. It is worth noting that most of graph recommendation models represent users and items in the real-valued space, which ignore the rich representational capacity of the non-real space. Besides, the simplicity and symmetry of the inner product make it ineffectively capture the intricate antisymmetric relations between users and items in interaction modeling. In this paper, based on the framework of graph neural network, we propose Graph Collaborative Filtering for recommendation in Complex and Quaternion space (GCFC and GCFQ respectively). Specifically, we first use complex embeddings or quaternion embeddings to initialize users and items. Then, the Hermitian product (for GCFC) or Hamilton product (for GCFQ) and embedding propagation layers are used to further enrich the embeddings of users and items. As such, we can obtain both latent inter-dependencies and intra-dependencies between components of users and items. Finally, we aggregate the embeddings of different propagation layers and use the Hermitian or Hamilton product with inner product to obtain the intricate antisymmetric relations between users and items. We have carried out extensive experiments on four real-world datasets to verify the effectiveness of GCFC and GCFQ. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
