摘要
The problem of node seeding for optimizing influence diffusion in a social network can be applied in many fields, and thus has drawn much attention. In real life, because of a variety of reasons, decision maker needs to make a sequence of decisions about how to select the seeded nodes. In this paper, we study the problem of sequentially seeding nodes in a social network such that the complete influence time is minimized. We formulate a Markov decision process to describe the problem and embed a modified greedy search method into an online algorithm to solve the Markov decision process. Numerical experiments are performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed online algorithm. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights
