V. CONCLUSION
This paper proposed a new social network
influence model. The used method is based on
multiple state and negative influences. Regarding
the previous method, three related works; Linear
Threshold (LT) Model, Independent Cascade (IC)
Model and Heat Diffusion (HD) Model only
consider positive influence and only two states for
each user. It becomes the cons of those works
because there is no chance to return to inactive
states especially when some nodes are influenced
as active nodes.
After applying the proposed method (MOO
model), those limitations have been broken. MOO
model has five opinion states and by having this,
this model gives permissions for users to adjust
these states using state transition table. Moreover,
the function of diffusion matrix applied in this
paper shows the successful in predicting the
influence diffusion even after some iterations.
To conclude, this work has successfully applied
a social influence website in order to observe the
state transition habit. Those divided in three types
events; positive, negative and neutral.
