We present a physically-inspired model and an efficient algorithm to infer hierarchical rankings of nodes in directed networks. It assigns real-valued ranks to nodes rather than simply ordinal ranks, and it formalizes the assumption that…

This paper examines the fundamental problem of identifying the most important nodes in a network. We use an axiomatic approach to this problem. Specifically, we propose six simple properties and prove that PageRank is the only centrality…

Determining the precise rank is an important problem in many large-scale applications with matrix data exploiting low-rank plus noise models. In this paper, we suggest a universal approach to rank inference via residual subsampling (RIRS)…

We analyze linkage strategies for a set I of webpages for which the webmaster wants to maximize the sum of Google's PageRank scores. The webmaster can only choose the hyperlinks starting from the webpages of I and has no control on the…

We introduce a family of novel ranking algorithms called ERank which run in linear/near linear time and build on explicitly modeling a network as uncertain evidence. The model uses Probabilistic Argumentation Systems (PAS) which are a…
