Sebastian Schelter resolved MAHOUT-773. --------------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed > Implement Random Walk with Restarts > ----------------------------------- > > Key: MAHOUT-773 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-773 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Graph > Affects Versions: 0.5 > Reporter: Sebastian Schelter > Assignee: Sebastian Schelter > Fix For: 0.6 > > > I'll create an implementation of Random Walk with Restarts as described in > Kang, Tsourakakis, Faloutsos, "PEGASUS: A Peta-Scale Graph Mining System - > Implementation and Observations" > http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~christos/PUBLICATIONS/icdm09-pegasus.pdf > The algorithm is a random walk similar to PageRank with the difference that > you start at and teleport to a certain node. The probabilities it computes > can be seen as a measure of proximity between the start node and a reached > node. To my knowledge RWR can be e.g used for link predicition in social > networks. > I will try to create an implementation that is able to do several walks in > parallel and I will assume that a steadystate probability vector fits in > memory. > I don't plan to use the implementation details from the paper but I'll model > the algorithm as an iterative multiplication between the adjacency matrix of > the graph and the matrix created from the steadystate probability vectors for > the vertices we compute the random walks for. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
