The study of a national Web graph is challenging and can provide insight into social phenomena specific to a country. However, because there is no country border in the Web, decidi...
Both human users and crawlers face the problem of finding good start pages to explore some topic. We show how to assist in qualifying pages as start nodes by link-based ranking al...
In recent years, link-based information retrieval methods from the Web are developed. A framework of these methods is a Web graph using pages as vertices and Web-links as edges. In...
We perform a clustering of the Chilean Web Graph using a local fitness measure, optimized by simulated annealing, and compare the obtained cluster distribution to that of two mod...
Web site structures are complex to analyze. Cross-referencing the web structure with navigational behaviour adds to the complexity of the analysis. However, this convoluted analys...
We consider a generalized copy model of the web graph and related networks, and analyze its limiting behaviour. The model is motivated by previously proposed copying models of the ...
The web graph has been the focus of much recent attention, with several stochastic models proposed to account for its various properties. A survey of these models is presented, foc...
Abstract. The PageRank algorithm demonstrates the significance of the computation of document ranking of general importance or authority in Web information retrieval. However, doi...
We present in this paper a method to discover the set of webpages contained in a logical website, based on the link structure of the Web graph. Such a method is useful in the conte...
Markov models have been widely used for modelling users' navigational behaviour in the Web graph, using the transitional probabilities between web pages, as recorded in the w...
