  18. What happens when you google? All the old text analysis + the new link analysis

  19. What happens when you google? ranked list 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

  20. Why are rankings so important?

  21. Web as a graph • Each node is a webpage. • Each arrow is a hyperlink.

  22. In-links vs. Out-links • In-links are votes of endorsement from one page to another.

  23. A Trip to Google-topia • Emmie • Randy, the Random Surfer video clip

  24. A Random Walk on the Web graph

  25. Matrix Notation

  26. BUT THERE ARE SOME PROBLEMS!

  27. The surfer gets stuck! • This is called a dangling node. • How does Google fix this?

  28. The surfer can “teleport” • We add a link from the dangling node to every other node. • When web surfing, this is equivalent to typing an address in the URL bar.

  29. Probability Matrix • We must also take this into consideration for our probability matrix.

  30. Dangling nodes and teleportation video clip

  31. Let’s look at another problem.

  32. Our surfer gets stuck in the webpages 4, 5, and 6. • This is called a cycle. • How do we fix this?
