Abstract

Abstract: The analysis of hyperlink structure on the Web has been employed for detecting high quality documents. In approaches such as PageRank, the Web graph is modeled as a Markov chain and the quality of a document corresponds to the probability of visiting it during a random walk. However, it is not always straightforward to consider the Web graph as Markov chain.
