Résumé
Understanding communication structures in huge and versatile online communities becomes a major issue. In this paper we propose a new metric, the Semantic Propagation Probability, that characterizes the user's ability to propagate a concept to other users, in a rapid and focused way. The message semantics is analyzed according to a given ontology. We use this metric to obtain the Temporal Semantic Centrality of a user in the community. We propose and evaluate an efficient implementation of this metric, using real-life ontologies and data sets.
