Revisiting the Stop-and-Stare Algorithms for Influence Maximization
Summary: Rigorous theoretical and empirical study of SSA and D-SSA for influence maximization, with comparison to TIM+ and IMM. It uncovers inaccuracies in prior results, reproduces original experiments, and introduces SSA-Fix to restore claimed approximation guarantees, highlighting scaling opportunities with guarantees.
