Graphs are found in a plethora of domains, including online social networks, the World Wide Web and the study of epidemics, to name a few. With the advent of greater volumes of information and the need for continuously updated results under…
We introduce and simulate the random walk that adapts move strategies according to local node preferences on a directed graph. We consider graphs with double-hierarchical connectivity and variable wiring diagram in the universality class of…
We compare two link analysis ranking methods of web pages in a site. The first, called Site Rank, is an adaptation of PageRank to the granularity of a web site and the second, called Popularity Rank, is based on the frequencies of user…
We propose a dynamical system that captures changes to the network centrality of nodes as external interest in those nodes vary. We derive this system by adding time-dependent teleportation to the PageRank score. The result is not a single…
We develop a generalized optimization framework for graph-based semi-supervised learning. The framework gives as particular cases the Standard Laplacian, Normalized Laplacian and PageRank based methods. We have also provided new…
We consider a broad class of walk-based, parameterized node centrality measures for network analysis. These measures are expressed in terms of functions of the adjacency matrix and generalize various well-known centrality indices, including…
Graphs (i.e., networks) have become an integral tool for the representation and analysis of relational data. Advances in data gathering have lead to multi-relational data sets which exhibit greater depth and scope. In certain cases, this…
In this paper we introduce the concept of dynamic link pages. A web site/page contains a number of links to other pages. All the links are not equally important. Few links are more frequently visited and few rarely visited. In this…
PageRank is an algorithm introduced in 1998 and used by the Google Internet search engine. It assigns a numerical value to each element of a set of hyperlinked documents (that is, web pages) within the World Wide Web with the purpose of…
The "Local Ranking Problem" (LRP) is related to the computation of a centrality-like rank on a local graph, where the scores of the nodes could significantly differ from the ones computed on the global graph. Previous work has studied LRP…
The majority of Semantic Web search engines retrieve information by focusing on the use of concepts and relations restricted to the query provided by the user. By trying to guess the implicit meaning between these concepts and relations,…
Eigenvector centrality is a standard network analysis tool for determining the importance of (or ranking of) entities in a connected system that is represented by a graph. However, many complex systems and datasets have natural multi-way…
As a measure of vertex importance according to the graph structure, PageRank has been widely applied in various fields. While many PageRank algorithms have been proposed in the past decades, few of them take into account whether the graph…
PageRank is a widespread model for analysing the relative relevance of nodes within large graphs arising in several applications. In the current paper, we present a cost-effective Hessenberg-type method built upon the Hessenberg process for…
In network science, there is often the need to sort the graph nodes. While the sorting strategy may be different, in general sorting is performed by exploiting the network structure. In particular, the metric PageRank has been used in the…
Over the last decade, PageRank has gained importance in a wide range of applications and domains, ever since it first proved to be effective in determining node importance in large graphs (and was a pioneering idea behind Google's search…
Personalized PageRank is an algorithm to classify the improtance of web pages on a user-dependent basis. We introduce two generalizations of Personalized PageRank with node-dependent restart. The first generalization is based on the…
We characterize the tail behavior of the distribution of the PageRank of a uniformly chosen vertex in a directed preferential attachment graph and show that it decays as a power law with an explicit exponent that is described in terms of…
PageRank (PR) is a fundamental tool for assessing the relative importance of the nodes in a network. In this paper, we propose a measure, weighted PageRank (WPR), extended from the classical PR for weighted, directed networks with possible…
Google's PageRank has created a new synergy to information retrieval for a better ranking of Web pages. It ranks documents depending on the topology of the graphs and the weights of the nodes. PageRank has significantly advanced the field…
