Abstract: The current influence analysis algorithms are mostly based on network topology structure or user interaction information. However, a single method will lead to a large deviation in mining results. At present, there is no comprehensive and accurate influence mining method. Therefore, by extending the traditional PageRank algorithm, a new TCRank algorithm based on user interaction connection attribute is proposed for Sina Weibo. Secondly, three kinds of micro-blog opinion leader characteristics are designed, and their weighted summation is used to refine the candidate set of opinion leaders. At the same time, an opinion leader extraction algorithm based on emotional support of convolution neural network model is proposed to rank the candidate set of opinion leaders. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by experiments.

Key words: Sina Weibo, opinion leader, PageRank, characteristic indexes, convolution neural network
