摘要翻译：
我们提出了一个连续时间事件的概率模型，其中每个事件触发后续事件的泊松过程。因此，观测事件的集合被建模为泊松过程的叠加。在此模型下，采用EM算法进行有效的推理是可行的。此外，EM算法可以实现为分布式算法，允许模型应用于非常大的数据集。我们将这些技术应用于Twitter消息的建模和维基百科的修订历史。

英文摘要：
  We present a probabilistic model of events in continuous time in which each event triggers a Poisson process of successor events. The ensemble of observed events is thereby modeled as a superposition of Poisson processes. Efficient inference is feasible under this model with an EM algorithm. Moreover, the EM algorithm can be implemented as a distributed algorithm, permitting the model to be applied to very large datasets. We apply these techniques to the modeling of Twitter messages and the revision history of Wikipedia.
