Books about Pagerank from Amazon.com

Google.com is one of the most popular sites on the Internet and is used around the world by millions of people every day. Sure, you know how to "Google it" when you're searching for something--anything!--on the Web. It's plenty fast and easy to use. But did you know how much more you could achieve with the world's best search engine by clicking beyond the "Google Search" button?

While you can interface with Google in 97 languages and glean results in 35, you can't find any kind of instruction manual from Google. Lucky for you, our fully updated and greatly expanded second edition to the bestselling Google: The Missing Manual covers everything you could possibly want to know about Google, including the newest and coolest--and often most underused (what is Froogle, anyway?)--features. There's even a full chapter devoted to Gmail, Google's free email service that includes a whopping 2.5 GB of space).

This wise and witty guide delivers the complete scoop on Google, from how it works to how you can search far more effectively and efficiently (no more scrolling through 168 pages of seemingly irrelevant results); take best advantage of Google's lesser-known features, such as Google Print, Google Desktop, and Google Suggest; get your website listed on Google; track your visitors with Google Analytics; make money with AdWords and AdSense; and much more.

Whether you're new to Google or already a many-times-a-day user, you're sure to find tutorials, tips, tricks, and tools that take you well beyond simple search to Google gurudom.

Why doesn't your home page appear on the first page of search results, even when you query your own name? How do other Web pages always appear at the top? What creates these powerful rankings? And how? The first book ever about the science of Web page rankings, Google's PageRank and Beyond supplies the answers to these and other questions and more.

The book serves two very different audiences: the curious science reader and the technical computational reader. The chapters build in mathematical sophistication, so that the first five are accessible to the general academic reader. While other chapters are much more mathematical in nature, each one contains something for both audiences. For example, the authors include entertaining asides such as how search engines make money and how the Great Firewall of China influences research.

The book includes an extensive background chapter designed to help readers learn more about the mathematics of search engines, and it contains several MATLAB codes and links to sample Web data sets. The philosophy throughout is to encourage readers to experiment with the ideas and algorithms in the text.

Any business seriously interested in improving its rankings in the major search engines can benefit from the clear examples, sample code, and list of resources provided.

• Many illustrative examples and entertaining asides
• MATLAB code
• Accessible and informal style
• Complete and self-contained section for mathematics review

Les auteurs dévoilent les élégants concepts mathématiques cachés derrière des applications technologiques et les replacent dans un contexte historique. Les sujets traités comprennent : la cryptographie à clé publique, les codes correcteurs d'erreurs, le système de positionnement global (GPS) et la cartographie, la compression d'images à l'aide de fractals et à l'aide du format JPEG, la reproduction de la musique, les robots, l'ordinateur à l'ADN, l'algorithme PageRank de Google, l'épargne et l'emprunt, la chirurgie au rayon gamma, les générateurs de nombres aléatoires. Un des leitmotivs du texte est que la modélisation mathématique, la puissance des outils mathématiques et l'abstraction sont toutes cruciales pour l'innovation technologique. Les divers sujets sont présentés avec clarté et les préalables mathématiques relativement élémentaires. Chaque chapitre suggère de nombreux exercices, certains élémentaires pour renforcer la compréhension, d'autres plus avancés pour explorer de nouvelles problématiques.

Mathématiques et Technologie s'adresse aux étudiants en mathématiques de fin de premier cycle universitaire (junior and senior undergraduates du système nord-américain) et aux futurs maîtres du secondaire. Les préalables sont l'algèbre linéaire, la géométrie euclidienne et, pour quelques chapitres, les probabilités élémentaires ou le calcul à plusieurs variables. De plus, trois qualités le rendent accessible à un grand éventail de lecteurs curieux : une mise en contexte historique de certains concepts mathématiques ou de l'évolution d'une technologie enrichit le texte; le calcul différentiel et intégral n'y joue pas un rôle de premier plan; enfin le livre offre au lecteur le choix de s’initier à une technologie en lisant les sections élémentaires ou encore d’approfondir les détails plus subtils en poursuivant la lecture des sections avancées (clairement identifiées).

Description:
The massive and heterogeneous Web exacerbates IR problems and short user queries make them worse. The contents of web pages are not enough to find answer pages. PageRank compensates for the insufficiencies of content information. The content information and PageRank are combined to get better results. However, static combination of multiple evidences may lower the retrieval performance. We have to use different strategies to meet the need of a user. We can classify user queries as three categories according to users' intent, the topic relevance task, the homepage finding task, and the service finding task. In this paper, we present a user query classification method. The difference of distribution, mutual information, the usage rate as anchor texts and the POS information are used for the classification. After we classified a user query, we apply different algorithms and information for the better results. For the topic relevance task, we emphasize the content information, on the other hand, for the homepage finding task, we emphasize the Link information and the URL information. We could get the best performance when our proposed classification method with the OKAPI scoring algorithm was used. .

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web-Graph, WAW 2009, held in Barcelona, Spain, in February 2009 - co-located with WSDM 2009, the Second ACM International Conference on Web Search and Data Mining.

The 14 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book. The papers address a wide variety of topics related to the study of the Web-graph such as theoretical and empirical analysis of the Web graph and Web 2.0 graphs, random walks on the Web and Web 2.0 graphs and their applications, and design and performance evaluation of the algorithms for social networks. The workshop papers have been naturally clustered in three topical sections on graph models for complex networks, pagerank and Web graph, and social networks and search.
