Measuring the Navigability of Document Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Browsing by similarity is a search tactic familiar to most people but one that the web unevenly supports. We are interested in user interface tools that augment the web with links to help users navigate from one relevant document to other relevant documents. We propose a combination of simple metrics to measure the navigability of document networks. These measures provide for low cost evaluation of the document networks formed by similarity measures and other link creation methods.

Improving Reachability and Navigability in Recommender Systems
In this paper, we investigate recommender systems from a network perspective and investigate recommendation networks, where nodes are items (e.g., movies) and edges are constructed from top-N recommendations (e.g., related movies). In particular, we focus on evaluating the reachability and navigability of recommendation networks and investigate the following questions: (i) How well do recommend...
متن کاملA Method for Evaluating the Navigability of Recommendation Algorithms
Recommendations are increasingly used to support and enable discovery, browsing and exploration of large item collections, especially when no clear classification of items exists. Yet, the suitability of a recommendation algorithm to support these use cases cannot be comprehensively evaluated by any evaluation measures proposed so far. In this paper, we propose a method to expand the repertoire...
متن کاملA method for evaluating discoverability and navigability of recommendation algorithms
Recommendations are increasingly used to support and enable discovery, browsing, and exploration of items. This is especially true for entertainment platforms such as Netflix or YouTube, where frequently, no clear categorization of items exists. Yet, the suitability of a recommendation algorithm to support these use cases cannot be comprehensively evaluated by any recommendation evaluation meas...

متن کاملOn Hyperbolic Geometry Structure of Complex Networks
Various real world phenomena can be modeled by a notion called complex network. Much effort has been devoted into understanding and manipulating this notion. Recent research hints that complex networks have an underlying hyperbolic geometry that gives them navigability, a highly desirable property observed in many complex networks. In this internship, a parameter called δ-hyperbolicity, which i...
