Social Network Community Detection Based on Textual Content Similarity and Sentimental Tendency

Abstract

Shared travel has gradually become one of the hot topics discussed on social networking platforms such as Micro Blog. In a timely manner, deeper network community detection on the evaluation content of shared travel in social networks can effectively conduct research and analysis on the public opinion orientation related to shared travel, which has great application prospects. The existing community detection algorithms generally measure the similarity of nodes in the network from the perspective of spatial distance. This paper proposes a Community detection algorithm based on Textual content Similarity and sentimental Tendency (CTST), considering the network structure and node attributes at the same time. The content similarity and sentimental tendency of network community users are taken as node attributes, and on this basis, an undirected weighted network is constructed for community detection. This paper conducts experiments with actual data and analyzes the experimental results. It is found that the modularity of the community detection results is high and the effect is good.

Higher-order Network phenomena of cascading failures in resilient cities

Modern urban resilience is threatened by cascading failures in multimodal transport networks, where localized shocks trigger widespread paralysis. Existing models, limited by their focus on pairwise interactions, often underestimate this systemic risk. To address this, we introduce a framework that confronts higher-order network theory with empirical evidence from a large-scale, real-world multimodal transport network. Our findings confirm a fundamental duality: network integration enhances static robustness metrics but simultaneously creates the structural pathways for catastrophic cascades. Crucially, we uncover the source of this paradox: a profound disconnect between static network structure and dynamic functional failure. We provide strong evidence that metrics derived from the network's static blueprint-encompassing both conventional low-order centrality and novel higher-order structural analyses-are fundamentally disconnected from and thus poor predictors of a system's dynamic functional resilience. This result highlights the inherent limitations of static analysis and underscores the need for a paradigm shift towards dynamic models to design and manage truly resilient urban systems.

Measuring Time-Horizon Engagement Effectiveness: Persistence, Recency, and Re-Emergence

Online attention is commonly summarized using cumulative volume, peak activity, or arithmetic averages, but such measures can obscure differences between activity that is sustained over time, concentrated near the present, or renewed after dormancy. This paper introduces the Time-Horizon Engagement Effectiveness (TH-EE) framework, which constructs interpretable temporal profiles of online attention by distinguishing three related but non-equivalent properties: persistence, recency, and re-emergence. We evaluate the framework through controlled engagement traces, a proof-of-concept application to 1,850 YouTube videos across 37 topics (18 cohorts selected a priori as exemplars of persistent, acute, cyclical, and recently originating attention, and 19 cohorts corresponding to authoritatively debunked claims), and an event-level validation on eleven years of daily Wikipedia pageview series for the same topics. The controlled analyses show that the framework distinguishes distributed activity from concentrated bursts, introduces temporal-order sensitivity through recency weighting, and identifies renewed activity after a defined dormant interval. On the event-level series, the framework's reactivations co-locate with Kleinberg burst onsets, and PELT change points far more often than chance. The YouTube application shows that debunked-claim cohorts do not occupy a unique region of temporal-profile space; they exhibit heterogeneous patterns that overlap substantially with benign topics. These results support treating persistence, recency, and re-emergence as separate dimensions of online attention. TH-EE is a descriptive and comparative measurement framework, not a classifier of misinformation, coordination, intent, or content veracity.

Enhancing Human Mobility Prediction with Spatially Aware LLM-based Multi-Agent Systems

Predicting a user's next POI is a task in human mobility modeling, yet LLM-based approaches focus on semantic reasoning from previous mobility records, while neglecting real-world spatial context. However, human mobility is inherently shaped by spatial cognition, including geographic distance and neighborhood context. This issue is further compounded by prior evidence that LLMs often struggle with spatial reasoning tasks, including distance estimation and geographically biased prediction. To address these limitations, we propose our framework, a multi-agent LLM framework that decomposes next-POI prediction into three stages: Firstly, a Pattern Extraction Agent that captures temporal and categorical mobility patterns from trajectory history; Secondly, a Spatial Reasoning Agent that structures candidate activity choices by combining behavioral preferences with real-world spatial constraints, including geographic distance, road network distance, and neighborhood affiliation; and Thirdly, a Decision Synthesis Agent that integrates behavioral patterns and spatial reasoning for final prediction. Experiments on the NYC benchmark dataset with two LLM backbones show improvements over baseline methods, with up to 493% Hit@1 improvement and 37% relative improvement in Hit@5. Ablations show that combining neighborhood affiliation with distance-based features generally outperforms distance-only settings, and that the Spatial Reasoning Agent plays a crucial role in final prediction by integrating behavioral preferences with real-world spatial constraints, especially for smaller models. Overall, the results highlight the importance of spatial reasoning in mobility prediction. Accurate next-POI prediction requires combining behavioral patterns with explicit real-world spatial constraints, and multi-agent decomposition provides an effective structure for organizing these forms of context.
