Efficient Approximation Algorithms for Adaptive Seed Minimization
Summary: Adaptive seed minimization in social networks with batchwise feedback; ASTI exploits observed diffusion in rounds to reduce seeds. Offers (1 - (1 - 1/b)^b)(1 - 1/e)(1 - ε) approximation in expectation in O((η(m+n))/ε^2 ln n) time; first scalable adaptive guarantee, supported by experiments.
