Spheres of Influence for More Effective Viral Marketing
Summary: Defines sphere of influence under probabilistic contagion and the Typical Cascade problem: minimize expected Jaccard distance to cascades from s. Proposes sampling-based Jaccard Median, an index to compute spheres efficiently, and a set-cover view of influence maximization with empirical gains over greedy.
