is unobtrusively observable in tweets: the use of language. We thus carry out a study of tweets- more specifically, we compare five different categories of user (one of which is influencer) and look at their language use.

"... In this paper we investigate the attributes and relative influence of 1.6M Twitter users by tracking 74 million diffusion events that took place on the Twitter follower graph over a two month interval in 2009. Unsurprisingly, we find that the largest cascades tend to be generated by users who have b ..."

D (2012) Identifying Influential and Susceptible Members of Social Networks
- Science, published online June
"... Identifying social influence in networks is critical to understanding how behaviors spread. We present a method that uses in vivo randomized experimentation to identify influence and susceptibility in networks while avoiding the biases inherent in traditional estimates of social contagion. Estimatio ..."

Estimation in a representative sample of 1.3 million Facebook users showed that younger users are more susceptible to influence than older users, men are more influential than women, women influence men more than they influence other women, and married individuals are the least susceptible to influence
Discovering Context-aware Influential Objects
"... It is very helpful for a user to get a moderate amount of information highly related to his/her immediate context (e.g., location, time, discussion topics) during the exploration of digital object collections (e.g., articles, web pages, blogs). For instance, in investigating a research topic, a rese ..."

To facilitate users ’ exploration, we introduce the problem of discovering Contextaware Influential Objects (CIO) from a collection

Finding Influential Neighbors to Maximize Information Diffusion in Twitter

The problem of spreading information is a topic of consid-erable recent interest, but the traditional influence maxi-mization problem is inadequate for a typical viral marketer who cannot access the entire network topology. To fix this flawed assumption that the marketer can control any arbi-trary k ..."

Understanding Classifier Errors by Examining Influential Neighbors
"... Modern supervised learning algorithms can learn very accurate and complex discriminating functions. But when these classifiers fail, this complexity can also be a drawback because there is no easy, intuitive way to diagnose why they are failing and remedy the problem. This important ques-tion has re ..."
