abstract: In this paper, we study a novel problem of staring people dis-
covery from social networks, which is concerned with finding
people who are not only authoritative but also sociable in the
social network. We formalize this problem as an optimiza-
tion programming problem. Taking the co-author network
as a case study, we define three objective functions and pro-
pose two methods to combine these objective functions. A
genetic algorithm based method is further presented to solve
this problem. Experimental results show that the proposed
solution can effectively find the staring people from social
networks.
