用微分方程建模社交活动数据中的兴趣扩散,实现高精度自动预测。

D-Tracker: Modeling Interest Diffusion in Social Activity Tensor Data Streams

  • 将偏微分方程融入张量分解,可解释地捕捉趋势、周期和跨区域扩散
  • 在Google Trends和新冠感染数据上,预测误差低于现有方法,速度更快
  • 无需调参,计算时间与序列长度无关,适合实时处理大数据流

大量社交活动数据(如每周网络搜索量、传染病新增感染数)反映了人们的兴趣与行为。准确发现其时间模式并预测未来活动至关重要。然而,这类数据高维且包含趋势、季节性和兴趣扩散等多种动态变化,建模困难。本文提出D-Tracker,一种持续捕捉社交活动张量数据流中时变时间模式并预测未来行为的方法。该方法具备三个特性:(a) 可解释性——将偏微分方程嵌入张量分解框架,可解释地建模趋势、季节性和区域间兴趣扩散;(b) 自动性——无超参数,完全自动连续建模数据流;(c) 可扩展性——计算时间与时间序列长度无关。在GoogleTrends的搜索量数据及COVID-19 Open Data Repository的感染数据上的实验表明,本方法在更短计算时间内实现了比现有方法更高的预测精度,并成功提取了区域间的兴趣扩散模式。代码与数据集已公开于https://github.com/Higashiguchi-Shingo/D-Tracker。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large quantities of social activity data, such as weekly web search volumes and the number of new infections with infectious diseases, reflect peoples' interests and activities. It is important to discover temporal patterns from such data and to forecast future activities accurately. However, modeling and forecasting social activity data streams is difficult because they are high-dimensional and composed of multiple time-varying dynamics such as trends, seasonality, and interest diffusion. In this paper, we propose D-Tracker, a method for continuously capturing time-varying temporal patterns within social activity tensor data streams and forecasting future activities. Our proposed method has the following properties: (a) Interpretable: it incorporates the partial differential equation into a tensor decomposition framework and captures time-varying temporal patterns such as trends, seasonality, and interest diffusion between locations in an interpretable manner; (b) Automatic: it has no hyperparameters and continuously models tensor data streams fully automatically; (c) Scalable: the computation time of D-Tracker is independent of the time series length. Experiments using web search volume data obtained from GoogleTrends, and COVID-19 infection data obtained from COVID-19 Open Data Repository show that our method can achieve higher forecasting accuracy in less computation time than existing methods while extracting the interest diffusion between locations. Our source code and datasets are available at {https://github.com/Higashiguchi-Shingo/D-Tracker.
