寻找真、假新闻中的“丑小鸭”：使用窥视策略预测新闻扩散规模和真实性
寻找真、假新闻中的“丑小鸭”：使用窥视策略预测新闻扩散规模和真实性
信息扩散中存在着一些“丑小鸭”类型的信息。“丑小鸭”类型的信息初始阶段就与众不同，一经转发，便可成为网络中的流行信息。南京大学新闻传播学院硕士研究生张耀天作为一作在SCI期刊Physica A发表题为Peeking strategy for Online News Diffusion Prediction via Machine Learning的论文，致力于采用窥视策略通过观察信息扩散早期阶段的结构特征、找到信息扩散中的“丑小鸭”，并预测新闻的扩散规模和真实性。
张耀天参加了第十八届中国网络科学论坛
实验室成员张耀天同学于2022年5月7日-8日参加了第十八届中国网络科学论坛(The 18th China Networks Science Forum in 2022)。她介绍了自己刚刚发表的论文Peeking strategy for online news diffusion prediction via machine learning。

祝建华：计算传播学与传播学研究范式转移
近年来，在线数据的易得与计算方法的普及，共同驱动了计算社会科学的产生。当前，这一新兴的研究取向仍在发展之中。计算传播学是计算社会科学在新闻传播研究中的应用。其所用数据包括用户日志、网页内容、在线实验等，加以经典的统计方法及新兴的计算方法。新数据+新方法的使用，尚未催生一个崭新的传播学研究范式，但是已经为我们提供了大量更精准和可靠的证据，以重新审视经典传播学中的一系列核心理论观念。
