GetReal: Towards Realistic Selection of Influence Maximization Strategies in Competitive Networks
Summary: Models competitive IM as a multi-agent game among rival groups; introduces GetReal to compute best-response strategies and detect Nash equilibria under adversarial competition. Real-network experiments show superior influence with realistic strategy mixtures. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
