Abstract

This paper develops an open source toolkit SocialNetworkSimulator to model social networks based on a group of tweets with the keyword of ‘Charlotesville’, a topic vividly discussed over Twitter on the movement ‘Unite the Right rally’ occurred in Charlottesville, Virginia from August 11 to August 12, 2017. Both public attention value and geographical distance decay are demonstrated to show how temporal and spatial factors would influence such diffusion across social network.
