Abstract
Methods and systems for measuring and predicting content dissemination in social networks includes computing a 'virality score' for popularity of social media content, a 'pattern' of diffusion of the content, and a “hype” parameter of such content without requiring a “friendship graph” or “information diffusion” structured data. It also includes an iterative, predictive model, which predicts future performance (or future rate of dissemination) of the content while mitigating a class imbalance problem inherent in predicting viral posts, and which provides updates to the model based on actual performance results.
