The problem of discovering influential users is important to understand and analyze online social networks. The user profiles and interactions between users are significant features to evaluate the user influence. As these features are heterogeneous, it is challengeable to take all of them into a proper model for influence evaluation. In this paper, we propose a model based on personal user features and the adjacent factor to discover influential users in online social networks. Through taking the advantages of Bayesian network and chain principle of PageRank algorithm, the features of the user profiles and interactions are integratedly considered in our model. Based on real data from Sina Weibo data and multiple evaluation metrics of retweet count, tweet count, follower count, etc., the experimental results show that influential users identified by our model are more powerful than the ones identified by single indicator methods and PageRank-based methods.

Twitter is one of the largest social networks in the world. People could share contents on it. When we interact with each other, the information spreads. And its users retweet behavior that makes information spread so fast. So there comes an important question: Whats about users retweet behavior? Could we simulate information spreading in twitter by retweeting behavior? We crawl twitter and mine information spreading based on users retweet behavior in it. Through our dateset, we verify the power-law distribution of the retweet-width and retweet-depth. At the same time, we study the correlation between retweet-width and retweet-depth. Finally, we propose an information spreading model to simulate the information spreading process in twitter and get a good result.
