Abstract:
Predicting the diffusion of information through a community can yield
insights into how quickly individuals will respond to an emergency or
other events. This talk will discuss our approach for developing
models of information diffusion by analyzing data about tweets sent by
individuals in a social network of approximately 15,000 Twitter
users. The collected data includes tweets about the death of Osama bin
Laden, Hurricane Irene, Hurricane Sandy, and the 2012 presidential
election.
