Abstract

The original purpose of Google's PageRank algorithm is to assess the significance of web pages based on their link structure. However, based on the principle of PageRank, it could be used to any network or graph in any domain, also over time it has been developed for social network analysis, link recommendation, and prediction. In this article we will discuss the math behind PageRank and its basic implementation, examine how these various applications are related mathematically and conceptually, and some lacks this classical web computing algorithm has.
