Hi Guys,

My group and I have been assigned a project to develop a collaborative search engine. We would appreciate help regarding the ranking algorithm, we are not not looking for code (though if available, or other resources - they will be much appreciated). We need advice regarding the architecture and steps involved in the design of the Page Ranking Algorithm.

Interesting,

You might read this book Programming Collective Intelligence[^] which will take you to the right direction. In addition to this you might need to do bit more research on Collective Intelligence, Data Mining, Machine Learning, Non-Negative Matrix Factorization and some Unsupervised machine learning algorithm and please refresh your math specially Bayes Law in Probability.

All the best :)

Note: The book I mention is written in Python.

Based on your interest I would recommend you to read research paper of
Sergey Brin and Lawrence Page of Google The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine [^]

Solution 2

Many search engines provide some knowledge of how their page rank works. It is becoming more of an art than a science. Unfortunately, the way your question is worded, it sounds like homework.

If you bothered to actually read the question and understand it, you would realize that it was stated that code is not required. It is a 3rd year level project and we asked for assistance as this is a forumn - to my knowledge this forumn is designed to help developers. If you do not want to share your knowledge, kindly keep it to yourself.

If you bothered to actually read the solution and understand it, you would realize that I stated that many search engines share how they choose to do page ranking. Also, I can comment and answer as I wish as long as it does not violate the site's rules.

You are really pathetic man. You have nothing better to do than mess up peoples posts? What the hell guy? I said its a project, an entire system - not just some 5 page "homework" assignment. We asked for help from the forum, if you do not want to help us others will. I don't appreciate you editing my post! Get a life man. Find some women - it seems like you really need one.
