The study defines optimal prebunking as a minimax optimization problem. Algorithm 3, validated through simulations on Chung-Lu models, outperforms baseline methods but faces limitations in network structure assumptions and real-world deviations. Future work aims to extend prebunking optimization to entire social networks.
