Eigenvector : The Linear Algebra behind Google ∗ Kurt
نویسندگان
چکیده
Google’s success derives in large part from its PageRank algorithm, which ranks the importance of web pages according to an eigenvector of a weighted link matrix. Analysis of the PageRank formula provides a wonderful applied topic for a linear algebra course. Instructors may assign this article as a project to more advanced students or spend one or two lectures presenting the material with assigned homework from the exercises. This material also complements the discussion of Markov chains in matrix algebra. Maple and Mathematica files supporting this material can be found at www.rose-hulman.edu/∼bryan.

متن کاملSome results on Haar wavelets matrix through linear algebra
Can we characterize the wavelets through linear transformation? the answer for this question is certainly YES. In this paper we have characterized the Haar wavelet matrix by their linear transformation and proved some theorems on properties of Haar wavelet matrix such as Trace, eigenvalue and eigenvector and diagonalization of a matrix.
متن کاملA note on a generalization of eigenvector centrality for bipartite graphs and applications
Eigenvector centrality is a linear algebra based graph invariant used in various rating systems such as webpage ratings for search engines. A generalization of the eigenvector centrality invariant is defined which is motivated by the need to design rating systems for bipartite graph models of time-sensitive and other processes. The linear algebra connection and some applications are described.
متن کاملOnline Learning of Eigenvectors
Computing the leading eigenvector of a symmetric real matrix is a fundamental primitive of numerical linear algebra with numerous applications. We consider a natural online extension of the leading eigenvector problem: a sequence of matrices is presented and the goal is to predict for each matrix a unit vector, with the overall goal of competing with the leading eigenvector of the cumulative ma...
