  1. Understanding and Managing Cascades on Large Graphs B. Aditya Prakash Computer Science Virginia Tech. Guest Lecture, 11/6/2012

  2. Networks are everywhere! Facebook Network [2010] Gene Regulatory Network [Decourty 2008] Human Disease Network [Barabasi 2007] The Internet [2005] Prakash 2012

  3. Dynamical Processes over networks are also everywhere! Prakash 2012

  4. Why do we care? • Social collaboration • Information Diffusion • Viral Marketing • Epidemiology and Public Health • Cyber Security • Human mobility • Games and Virtual Worlds • Ecology • Localized effects: riots…

  5. Why do we care? (1: Epidemiology) • Dynamical Processes over networks [AJPH 2007] CDC data: Visualization of the first 35 tuberculosis (TB) patients and their 1039 contacts Diseases over contact networks Prakash 2012

  6. Why do we care? (1: Epidemiology) • Dynamical Processes over networks • Each circle is a hospital • ~3000 hospitals • More than 30,000 patients transferred [US-MEDICARE NETWORK 2005] Problem: Given k units of disinfectant, whom to immunize? Prakash 2012

  7. Why do we care? (1: Epidemiology) ~6x fewer! [US-MEDICARE NETWORK 2005] CURRENT PRACTICE OUR METHOD Hospital-acquired inf. took 99K+ lives, cost $5B+ (all per year) Prakash 2012

  8. Why do we care? (2: Online Diffusion) > 800m users, ~$1B revenue [WSJ 2010] ~100m active users > 50m users Prakash 2012

  9. Why do we care? (2: Online Diffusion) • Dynamical Processes over networks Buy Versace™! Followers Celebrity Social Media Marketing Prakash 2012

  10. 3: Water Distribution Network • Given a real city water distribution network • Data on how contaminants spread on network • Problem of interest to many (EPA, etc) S Where should we place the sensors to detect all possible contaminations? Prakash 2012

  11. Why do we care? (4: To change the world?) • Dynamical Processes over networks Social networks and Collaborative Action Prakash 2012

  12. High Impact – Multiple Settings epidemic out-breaks Q. How to squash rumors faster? Q. How do opinions spread? Q. How to market better? products/viruses transmit s/w patches Prakash 2012

  13. Research Theme ANALYSIS Understanding POLICY/ ACTION Managing DATA Large real-world networks & processes Prakash 2012

  15. Research Theme – Social Media ANALYSIS # cascades in future? POLICY/ ACTION How to market better? DATA Modeling Tweets spreading Prakash 2012

  16. In this lecture Given propagation models: Q1: How do viruses compete? ANALYSIS Understanding Prakash 2012

  17. In this lecture Q2: How to immunize and control out-breaks better? Q3: How to detect outbreaks? POLICY/ ACTION Managing Prakash 2012

  18. In this lecture Q4: How do cascades look like? Q5: How does activity evolve over time? DATA Large real-world networks & processes Prakash 2012

  19. Outline • Motivation • Part 1: Understanding Epidemics (Theory) • Part 2: Policy and Action (Algorithms) • Part 3: Learning Models (Empirical Studies) • Conclusion Prakash 2012

  20. Part 1: Theory • Q1: What happens when viruses compete? • Mutually-exclusive viruses Prakash 2012

  21. Competing Contagions iPhone v Android Blu-ray v HD-DVD v Attack Retreat Biological common flu/avian flu, pneumococcal inf etc Prakash 2012

  22. Details A simple model • Modified flu-like • Mutual Immunity (“pick one of the two”) • Susceptible-Infected1-Infected2-Susceptible Virus 2 Virus 1 Prakash 2012

  23. Question: What happens in the end? green: virus 1 red: virus 2 Number of Infections • Footprint @ Steady State • Footprint @ Steady State = ? ASSUME: Virus 1 is stronger than Virus 2 Prakash 2012

  24. Question: What happens in the end? • Footprint @ Steady State • Footprint @ Steady State green: virus 1 red: virus 2 Number of Infections Strength Strength ?? = 2 Strength Strength ASSUME: Virus 1 is stronger than Virus 2 Prakash 2012

  25. Answer: Winner-Takes-All green: virus 1 red: virus 2 Number of Infections ASSUME: Virus 1 is stronger than Virus 2 Prakash 2012

  26. Our Result: Winner-Takes-All Given our model, and any graph, the weaker virus always dies-out completely Details The stronger survives only if it is above threshold Virus 1 is stronger than Virus 2, if: strength(Virus 1) > strength(Virus 2) Strength(Virus) = λβ / δ same as before! In Prakash+ WWW 2012 Prakash 2012

  27. Real Examples [Google Search Trends data] Reddit v Digg Blu-Ray v HD-DVD Prakash 2012

  28. Outline • Motivation • Part 1: Understanding Epidemics (Theory) • Part 2: Policy and Action (Algorithms) • Part 3: Learning Models (Empirical Studies) • Conclusion Prakash 2012

  29. Part 2: Algorithms • Q2: Whom to immunize? • Q3: How to detect outbreaks? Prakash 2012

  30. Full Static Immunization Given: a graph A, virus prop. model and budget k; Find: k ‘best’ nodes for immunization (removal). ? ? k = 2 ? ? Prakash 2012

  31. Part 2: Algorithms • Q3: Whom to immunize? • Full Immunization (Static Graphs) • Fractional Immunization • Q4: How to detect outbreaks? • Q5: Who are the culprits? Prakash 2012

  32. Challenges Given a graph A, budget k, Q1(Metric) How to measure the ‘shield-value’ for a set of nodes (S)? Q2(Algorithm) How to find a set of k nodes with highest ‘shield-value’? Prakash 2012

  33. Proposed vulnerability measure λ λ is the epidemic threshold “Safe” “Vulnerable” “Deadly” Increasing λ Increasing vulnerability Prakash 2012

  34. A1: “Eigen-Drop”: an ideal shield value Eigen-Drop(S) Δ λ = λ - λs 9 Δ 9 9 11 10 10 2 1 1 4 4 8 8 6 2 7 3 7 3 5 5 6 Without {2, 6} Original Graph Prakash 2012

  35. (Q2) - Direct Algorithm too expensive! • Immunize k nodes which maximize Δλ S = argmaxΔλ • Combinatorial! • Complexity: • Example: • 1,000 nodes, with 10,000 edges • It takes 0.01 seconds to compute λ • It takes2,615 yearsto find 5-best nodes! Prakash 2012

  36. A2: Our Solution In Tong+ ICDM 2010 • Part 1: Shield Value • Carefully approximate Eigen-drop (Δλ) • Matrix perturbation theory • Part 2: Algorithm • Greedily pick best node at each step • Near-optimal due to submodularity • NetShield(linear complexity) • O(nk2+m) n = # nodes; m = # edges Prakash 2012

  37. Details Our Solution: Part 1 u(i) A u u = λ . • Approximate Eigen-drop (Δλ) • Δλ ≈SV(S) = • Result using Matrix perturbation theory • u(i) == ‘eigenscore’ ~~ pagerank(i) Prakash 2012

  38. Details P1: node importance P2: set diversity Original Graph Prakash 2012 Select by P1 Select by P1+P2

  39. Our Solution: Part 2: NetShield Corollary: Greedy algorithm works 1. NetShield is near-optimal (w.r.t. max SV(S)) 2. NetShield is O(nk2+m) We prove that: SV(S) is sub-modular (& monotone non-decreasing) NetShield: Greedily add best node at each step Prakash 2012 Footnote: near-optimal means SV(S NetShield) >= (1-1/e) SV(S Opt)

  40. Experiment: Immunization quality Log(fraction of infected nodes) PageRank Betweeness (shortest path) Degree Lower is better Acquaintance Eigs (=HITS) NetShield Time Prakash 2012

  43. Fractional Asymmetric Immunization # antidotes = 3 Fractional Effect [ f(x) = ] Asymmetric Effect Prakash 2012

  44. Now: Fractional Asymmetric Immunization # antidotes = 3 Fractional Effect [ f(x) = ] Asymmetric Effect Prakash 2012

  45. Fractional Asymmetric Immunization # antidotes = 3 Fractional Effect [ f(x) = ] Asymmetric Effect Prakash 2012
