Abstract:Locating the propagation source is one of the most important strategies to control the harmful diffusion process on complex networks. Most existing methods only consider the infection time information of the observers, but the diffusion direction information of the observers is ignored, which is helpful to locate the source. In this paper, we consider both of the diffusion direction information and the infection time information to locate the source. We introduce a relaxed direction-induced search (DIS) to uti… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
