A diffusion model is a type of probabilistic model used to describe the spread of information, behaviors, or innovations through a population over time. It essentially captures how new ideas or technologies become adopted and diffused among individuals within a social network or community. Diffusion models have applications in various fields, such as marketing, sociology, epidemiology, and physics.
