Description

Consider the social networks marketing seed user choosing method that existing product influences
Technical field
The present invention relates to social networks and information communication sphere, more particularly to the social networks for considering that existing product influences Marketing seed user choosing method.
Background technique
Online social networks (the Online Social such as Facebook, Twitter, Sina weibo and wechat Networks, abbreviation OSNs), our daily life is constantly being incorporated, people are made friends by social networks, deliver sight Point and sharing information.Moreover, since social networks reduces the threshold of communication, more and more users start social network Network carries out on line, network marketing and shopping online as the important tool for participating in social activities so that social activities be moved to Nowadays become very universal, it can be seen that, social networks is changing our life deeply.
Nowadays the userbase of social networks is huge, contains huge researching value and commercial value, only Facebook Just reach 21.3 hundred million in the monthly active users in the end of the year 2017, fourth quarter business revenue volume is 13,000,000,000 dollars, wherein 98.5% From advertising business;It can be seen that carrying out network marketing using social networks and promoting the pillar industry for having become current social networks Business.Compared to traditional media advertisement, social networks is marketed, and covering crowd is wider, route of transmission is more various, communication mode is more efficient, Network marketing mode most popular at present is virus marketing (Viral Marketing), it is passed from mouth to mouth using social user (Word-of-mouth) propagation characteristic will go out with marketing product promotion, and communication process very efficient quick is similar to virus It propagates, so gain the name.
Social networks marketing passes through mouth as seed user, then by them as shown in Figure 1, choosing a collection of initial user first Mouth passes on from one to another mode and promotes to surrounding user (such as good friend or bean vermicelli), if surrounding user receives the marketing product, will continue It promotes, marketing behavior is constantly propagated between user in cascaded fashion, achievees the purpose that advertisement promotion.Currently, social networks is marketed The optimization problem for being usually modeled as belt restraining is solved, i.e. the marketing payoff maximization problem of budgetary restraints, and marketing needs A part of initial user is chosen as seed user, marketing product promotion is gone out by its marketing influence, battalion herein Pin influence power indicates the ability that user goes out marketing product promotion, and budget then is used to limit the expense of marketing, generally pays Seed user.Above-mentioned optimization problem aims at: seed user is selected, to maximize marketing income.Existing method for solving Main to design greedy algorithm using the monotonicity and submodularity of marketing revenue function, monotonicity means income with seed user Increase and increase, but submodularity is being gradually reduced marginal benefit i.e. increment simultaneously.Greedy algorithm is by continuously attempting to Finding out one every time can bring the user of maximum marginal benefit as seed user, until budget uses until exhausted, process such as Fig. 2 It is shown.
There are following technical problems for traditional technology:
Firstly, there are a kind of tradeoffs between income and budget, be difficult to formulate suitable budget before marketing, especially when pair It is even more so when product and the market shortage enough understanding of marketing;Secondly, algorithm is mainly used for solving single product at present Marketing, it is not intended that the influence of existing product, however, user has had very before receiving promotion in actual life Multi-product, these products may play the role of promotion or inhibition to the popularization of marketing product, such as when user has purchased baby It is easier to promote baby milk to it after feeding bottle, certainly if when he has possessed baby milk, sales promotion meeting is highly difficult;Again, Existing method is when calculating the influence power in user's marketing process, the main topological attribute degree of progress from user in social networks Amount did not accounted for influence caused by existing product both without the intimate degree between differentiation user yet, thus can not accurately reflect User's marketing influence, it is limited to practical marketing directive significance with the seed user that this finds out;Finally, the complexity of existing method It is excessively high, for nowadays extensive social networks, lack practical value.
Summary of the invention
Based on this, it is difficult to determine for budget existing for existing method, marketing influence measurement inaccuracy, lacks to existing The problems such as the considerations of product and high method complexity, the present invention provide the social networks marketing seed for considering that existing product influences User's choosing method, to marketing influence in terms of user social contact network topology attribute, intimate degree and existing product three Careful measurement is carried out, income is substituted with return rate, proposes a kind of Efficient Solution algorithm towards extensive social networks, is solved Promotion problem on large-scale social networks obtains highest income with the smallest expense.

A concrete application scene of the invention is described below:
A kind of social networks marketing seed user choosing method for considering existing product and influencing, target is to select suitable kind Child user maximizes the profit return rate of marketing.The flow chart of the method for the invention is as shown in Figure 3, comprising the following steps:
Social networks is modeled as a width socialgram G=(V, E, W) by step 1, and wherein vertex set V indicates social networks In all social users' set, side collection E indicates social networks set between social user, and W indicates the weight set on all sides;
Step 2, initialization seed user's set S are empty set, i.e.,Initialising subscriber set U is institute in step 1 There are user's set, i.e. U ← V;
Step 3, the marketing influence for calculating all users in set U in step 2;
Step 4, to two set S and U in step 2 respectively pass through addition user and delete user be updated.
Further, in the step 1 socialgram G construction method are as follows:
Firstly, users all in social networks are established social side according to social networks each other, it is denoted as euv, euvWith side To, relationship of the expression from user u to v, such as concern relation, so socialgram G is digraph.To keep unified, for social activity The nondirectional social networks of relationship, can be considered as the special case of digraph, established between any two user u and v two it is oriented Side euvAnd evu
Secondly, by the neighbours of any user u be defined as with the related side u, according to the direction on side, there are two user u tools Neighbours' collection, in-degree neighbours collect Nu -=v ∈ V | evu∈ E } and out-degree neighbours collection Nu +=v ∈ V | euv∈E};
Again, side euvOn weight wuvThe intimate degree for indicating user u to v is measured, institute with the frequency of interaction of u to v There is weight to constitute set W.
Further, in the step 3 user's marketing influence calculation method are as follows:
Firstly, the interactional matrix H in marketing process is constructed between all products, arbitrary element p in HAB∈[-1, 1], influence when having possessed product B to purchase product A is continued, p are indicatedABWhen > 0, illustrate that existing procucts B pushes away marketing product A Extensively there are facilitation, pABWhen < 0, then inhibition is played, and pABWhen=0, illustrate that B does not influence the marketing of A.pABValue it is logical It crosses and statistics acquisition is recorded to product sales histories.
Secondly, marketing influence is defined as any user u and goes out product A successful referral to it for network marketing Spend the probability of neighbours v:
Wherein,Indicate effect of the user social contact relationship in marketing, Pv indicates the product collection that user v has possessed It closes,Indicate effect of the existing procucts to marketing, α and β then indicate the weight of two kinds of effects, and meet alpha+beta=1.With It promotes the sale of products total marketing influence of A at family are as follows:
Further, in the step 4 two set S and U renewal process are as follows:
Step 401 judges whether set S and U are equal, if equal, output set S (or U) is used as the seed of marketing Family set;
Step 402 is subordinated to user and collects and U but is not belonging to arbitrarily select a user u in seed user collection S, i.e. u ∈ S U, According to the marketing influence of user in step 3, calculates separately addition u to S and delete the marginal returnses rate of u from U, be denoted as Δ+ And Δ-
Step 403, with probability Δ+/ u is added to set S, i.e. S ← S ∪ { u } by (Δ ++ Δ -), otherwise from user's set U Middle deletion u, i.e. U ← U { u }, go to step 401;
Further, it in the step 402, adds u to S and deletes the calculation method of the marginal returnses rate of u from U are as follows:
Firstly, marketing income σA(S) it is defined as the product of the number of users successfully marketed and the price of product A:
σA(S)=| πA(S)|pA (3)
Wherein πA(S) the user's set successfully marketed is indicated, operator | | indicate set sizes, pAIndicate product A's Price.|πA(S) | calculation method are as follows: each user attempts to promote the sale of products to its out-degree neighbours in seed set S, cracks a prospect Probability be its marketing influence, by formula (1) calculate, if cracking a prospect its out-degree neighbours continue promoted according to the same manner, Until successfully being promoted there is no new user, the number of users successfully marketed at this time is | πA(S)|。σA(S) there is son Mould and monotonicity, value increases with the growth of seed set S, and amplification is gradually reduced.
It all is successfully sought secondly, marketing disbursement cA (S) is defined as paying the expense of seed user and pays Sell the sum of the expense of user of product:
Wherein γ withIndicate that weight, T indicate user's set of all products of successfully marketing, each user will in the set Product, which is successfully promoted, gives its at least one out-degree neighbour, and set sizes calculate as follows:
WhereinIndicate that user successfully promotes product A to its at least one out-degree neighbour's Probability.CA (S) has submodularity and monotonicity, and value increases with the growth of seed set S, and amplification is gradually reduced.
Again, marketing return rate is defined as unit costs bring income, with marketing income and disbursement of marketing Ratio calculates, and is defined as follows:
OA (S) has submodularity but does not have monotonicity.
User u is added to caused by seed user set S by the size variation of successfully marketing user set finally, calculating Are as follows:
Formula (7) are substituted into formula (6), the marginal returnses rate for calculating addition u to S is the difference of addition front and back return rate:
oA(u | S)=oA(S∪{u})-oA(S) (8)
To avoid the occurrence of negative value, marginal returnses rate Δ+Only take positive number:
Δ+=max { oA(u | S), 0 } (9)
Equally, calculating and deleting the marginal returnses rate of u from U is to delete the difference of front and back return rate:
oA(u | U { u })=oA(U)-oA(U\{u}) (10)
Marginal returnses rate Δ-Only take positive number:
Δ-=max { oA(u | U { u }), 0 } (11)
Further, in the step 403, with probability Δ+/(Δ+-) u is added to the method for set S are as follows:
The random number r between one 0 to 1 is generated, Δ is calculated+/(Δ+-), compare the two size, if Δ+/(Δ++ Δ-) < r, then u is added to set S, otherwise, deletes u from user's set U.
In order to verify the validity of this method, a specific embodiment is provided by emulation experiment.Following setting is done in experiment:
