On Structural Features, User Social Behavior, and Kinship Discrimination in Communication Social Networks

摘要

In the research of social networks, their structural characteristics, user social behaviors, and user relationships are elements that are important to understand social networks, to predict user behaviors, and to manage social networks. In this article, we took as the research object of social networks the mobile communication network, which is closely connected with people’s real lives. We studied the structural characteristics using the complex network analysis methods and derived the laws that exist in the structure of communication social networks. We analyzed users’ social behaviors or social patterns from the perspective of age, gender, social scope, age differences, and time. In addition, we extracted various salient features of user’s calling behavior, and used the XGBoost and logistic regression (LR) fusion method to establish the Kinship-XL model, which is able to improve the performance and speed. Through the experimental verification, the Kinship-XL model can determine whether there is a kinship between users or not.
