PageRank is a Google algorithm for ranking pages based on the flow of authority via links, created by Larry Page and Sergey Brin. PageRank was once at the very core of search – and was what made ...

A computational chemist at Washington State University has adapted Google's seminal search algorithm, PageRank, so that instead of mapping trillions of web pages it maps out the shapes and ...

This is what the ex-Googler said about PageRank no longer in use: “The comments here that PageRank is Google’s secret sauce also aren’t really true – Google hasn’t used PageRank since 2006.

One familiar algorithm for this is Google's PageRank, which is (obviously) computationally expensive; it is impossible with current technology to extend it to the whole Web.

Google’s PageRank algorithm was developed in 1998. But a project to trace the history of such algorithms reveals an example from the 1940s.

Background: It’s not just a PageRank issue (and hasn’t been for years) Google’s original PageRank algorithm was pretty simple. Each page inherits PageRank from the pages that link to it.

Personalized PageRank (PPR) algorithms have emerged as a cornerstone methodology in analysing and utilising the inherent structure of large-scale networks. By refining the classic PageRank concept ...

In the traditional PageRank algorithm, a web page's "value" increases as more sites link to it, but the PageRank of the source site also matters. For example, if ExtremeTech receives a link from ...
