Abstract

A new model of human flesh search (HFS) was established based on the love-triangle model (LTM) and susceptible-infected-recovered (SIR) model. The competitive propagation process between rumors and true messages in HFS was investigated. According to the proposed model, the equation was derived to describe the propagation of rumors and true messages in HFS. Coupling effect of rumors and true messages and the node credibility were considered; the simulations were implemented on small world network. The results show that the competition probability initial value of rumors is higher than that of true messages in the process of HFS. The coupling effect indicates that the spreading of one information fragment would be influenced by others. Furthermore, the inhibition of credibility on rumor spreading is found. Therefore, the means of suppressing rumors is proposed furtherly. Finally, the validity of the new model was verified through the comparative experiment between the simulation of the proposed model and real case.
