Abstract

Copyright 2017, International Foundation for Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (www.ifaamas.org). All rights reserved. We study on how to maintain long-term influence in a social network by proposing an agent-based influence maintenance model. Within the context of our investigation, the experimental results reveal that multiple-time seed selection is capable of achieving more constant impact than one-shot selection.
