Hyperlink analysis is a successful approach to define algorithms which compute the relevance of a document on the basis of the citation graph. In this paper we propose a technique...
This paper presents WordRank, a new page ranking system, which exploits similarity between interconnected pages. WordRank introduces the model of the ‘biased surfer’ which is ...
Personalized PageRank, related to random walks with restarts and conductance in resistive networks, is a frequent search paradigm for graph-structured databases. While efficient ba...
Theoretical analysis of the Web graph is often used to improve the efficiency of search engines. The PageRank algorithm, proposed by [5], is used by the Google search engine [4] t...
