文摘

We study the seeds-selection problem in a competitive diffusion model from a new perspective. We propose five seeds-selection strategies based on commonly used network centralities. Degree centrality and Betweenness centrality are proper indicators for influential seeds in proposed competitive diffusion model for all networks concerned. The priority of Betweenness centrality strategy decreases, as the heterogeneity of the network decreases. Our findings shed light on how to choose seeds in the competitive diffusion processes in applications.
