ABSTRACT
In most social networks that are observed over time, we find that some individuals leave and others join the network. It is often important to modify the connections in the resulting network to satisfy desired properties associated with the network as well as individual nodes. We formulate this as a multi-objective optimization problem that requires maximization of two measures: the network Information Flow Quality (IFQ) and the Personal Satisfaction Quality(PSQ). Algorithms are developed to accomplish these optimization tasks, and shown to result in satisfactory network reconfiguration.

The ML-Model for Multi-layer Social Networks
ASONAM '11: Proceedings of the 2011 International Conference on Advances in Social Networks Analysis and MiningIn this paper we introduce a new model to represent an interconnected network of networks. This model is fundamental to reason about the real organization of on-line social networks, where users belong to and interact on different networks at the same ...
