Abstract

With more and more people beginning to share information and opinions through microb1ogging, microblogging network has become a new research focus in the social network. In this paper, we introduced a model which gives more realistic and detailed description of the evolution process of microblogging network based on the Barabási-Albert model. The model includes the addition of new vertices with directed edges, the addition of new directed edge between old vertices selected by cognitive cost, the deletion of some old directed edges between old vertices selected by anti-cognitive cost and anti-preferential probability. We analytically calculated and simulated the degree distribution by the mean field theory. The degree distribution exhibits a multiscaling behavior analogous to the BA model. Finally, our results show that strong correlation between the in-degree and out-degree. The analytical results are supported by simulations. Our work is the basis for the study of information dissemination in the microblogging network.
