Transaction Prediction in Blockchain: A Negative Link Prediction Algorithm Based on the Sentiment Analysis and Balance Theory

Abstract

User relationship prediction in the transaction of Blockchain is to predict whether a transaction will occur between two users in the future, which can be abstracted into the link prediction problem. The link prediction can be categorized into the positive one and the negative one. However, the existing negative link prediction algorithms mainly consider the number of negative user interactions and lack the full use of emotion characteristics in user interactions. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a negative link prediction algorithm based on the sentiment analysis and balance theory. Firstly, the user interaction matrix is constructed based on calculating the intensity of emotion polarity for social network texts, and a reliability weight matrix (noted as RW-matrix) is constructed based on the user interaction matrix to measure the reliability of negative links. Secondly, with the RW-matrix, a negative link prediction algorithm is proposed based on the structural balance theory by constructing negative link sample sets and extracting sample features. To evaluate the performance of the negative link prediction algorithm proposed, the variable management method is used to analyze the influence of negative sample control error and other parameters on the accuracy of it. Compared with the existing prediction benchmark algorithms, the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed negative link prediction algorithm can improve the accuracy of prediction significantly and deliver good performances.

Import and export trade forecasting algorithm based on blockchain security andPSOoptimized hybrid RVM model

“…In addition, the distributed storage structure does not require a dedicated person to manage data information 13 . In this system, except for import and export trading companies, 14 no one else has the authority to access the data information stored in this system. Therefore, the use of blockchain security technology in import and export trade is currently the best way to store import and export trade data information.…”
