Determined seed groups herein improve content dissemination across a communication network connecting a plurality of users. Probabilities of each user in the plurality influencing remaining users in the plurality to observe the content are identified to select a first influential user from the plurality. The seed group size is established and a user of the plurality with a probability proximate to the probability of the first influential user is identified. Based on the seed group size, the probabilities of the remaining users in the plurality are unified with the probability of the first influential user to determine new probabilities of the remaining users, and another user of the plurality with a probability proximate to the probability of the first influential user is identified. The method then provides for selecting the users identified as having probabilities proximate to the probability of the first influential user to establish the seed group.
A method of determining a seed group from a plurality of users, wherein the seed group is operable to disseminate content across a communication network connecting the users when the seed group is targeted with the content, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, direct the processor to determine a seed group from a plurality of users, wherein the seed group is operable to disseminate content across a communication network connecting the users when the seed group is targeted with the content, the instructions further directing the processor to:
A content dissemination system operable to determine a seed group from a plurality of users, wherein the seed group is operable to disseminate content across a communication network connecting the users when the seed group is targeted with the content, the content dissemination system comprising:
A method of determining a seed group from a plurality of users, wherein the seed group is operable to disseminate content across a communication network connecting the users when the seed group is targeted with the content, the method comprising:
