    Learning Information Spread in Content Networks

    We introduce a model for predicting the diffusion of content information on social media. When propagation is usually modeled on discrete graph structures, we introduce here a continuous diffusion model, where nodes in a diffusion cascade are projected onto a latent space with the property that their proximity in this space reflects the temporal diffusion process. We focus on the task of predicting contaminated users for an initial initial information source and provide preliminary results on differents datasets.Comment: 4 page

    Inverse Problems of Determining Coefficients of the Fractional Partial Differential Equations

    Full text link
    When considering fractional diffusion equation as model equation in analyzing anomalous diffusion processes, some important parameters in the model, for example, the orders of the fractional derivative or the source term, are often unknown, which requires one to discuss inverse problems to identify these physical quantities from some additional information that can be observed or measured practically. This chapter investigates several kinds of inverse coefficient problems for the fractional diffusion equation

    Hierarchical Information and the Rate of Information Diffusion

    The rate of information diffusion and consequently price discovery, is conditional upon not only the design of the market microstructure, but also the informational structure. This paper presents a market microstructure model showing that an increasing number of information hierarchies among informed competitive traders leads to a slower information diffusion rate and informational inefficiency. The model illustrates that informed traders may prefer trading with each other rather than with noise traders in the presence of the information hierarchies. Furthermore, we show that momentum can be generated from the predictable patterns of noise traders, which are assumed to be a function of past pricesInformation hierarchies, Information diffusion rate, Momentum
