Abstract :
Most current propagation models ignore individual differences between users. To solve this problem, we extract the impact of retweeting behavior of four categories of characteristics, and propose a method to predict individual forwarding behavior using logistic regression model. Then, by integrating into the user individual differences, a behavior-prediction based information diffusion model is established. The experiments results show that the model can simulate the process of information diffusion in the real network well.
