Influence Maximization in Independent Cascade Networks Based on Activation Probability Computation
Based on the concepts of “word-of-mouth” effect and viral marketing, the diffusion of an innovation may be triggered starting from a set of initial users.Estimating the influence spread is a preliminary step to determine a suitable or even optimal set of initial users to reach a given goal.In this paper, we focus on a stochastic model
Performance Assessment of M5 Tree Model and Genetic Programming in Tabriz Station Reference Evapotranspiration Modeling
Evapotranspiration has a main role in water budget assessment IN THE LOOP 2 and management.In plant water requirements and evapotranspiration volume calculation, firstly reference evapotranspiration (ET0) have to be computed and then plant water requirements can be estimated using different methods.In this research, firstly the reference evapotrans
