To Implement PageRank Algorithm using Map-Reduce for Wikipedia and verify it for smaller data-sets

Motivation Introduction to Algorithm PageRank Equation Analysis Brief Description of ProjectModule1Module2Module3Applications

-> Need for PageRank:

The Search engines store billions of web pages which overall contain trillions of web url links. So, there is a need for an algorithm that gives the most relevant pages specific to a query.

-> Need for Distributed Environment( Map-Reduce and Distributed Storage)

• Trillions of links implies huge data storage required.(if each url requires 0.5K, then we need over 400TB just to

store URLs!) • Large data set implies large computations

PageRank is a link analysis algorithm, named after Larry Page, used by the Google Internet search engine that assigns a numerical weighting to each element of a hyperlinked set of documents, such as the Worldwide Web, with the purpose of "measuring" its relative importance within the set

The numerical weight that it assigns to any given element Eis also called the PageRank of E and denoted by PR(E).

Google figures that when one page links to another page, it is effectively casting a vote for the other page. The more votes that are cast for a page, the more important the page must be. Also, the importance of the page that is casting the vote determines how important the vote itself is. Google calculates a page's importance from the votes cast for it. How important each vote is also taken into account when a page's PageRank is calculated.

Simple Iterative Algorithm

For kth iteration PageRank of ith page is given by:

Here,

Problems:

• Sinks or Dangling Pages• Cycles

Solution:

Solution for Cycles and If a random surfer gets bored

Here ‘d ‘ is known as damping factor . It represents the probability, at any step, that the person will continue surfing . The value of ‘d’ is typically kept 0.85

In a simpler way:-

a page's PageRank = 0.15 /N+ 0.85 * (a "share" of the PageRank of every page that links to it) "share" = the linking page's PageRank divided by the number of outbound links on the page. And N= the number of documents in collection

The equation of PageRank shows clearly how a page's PageRank is arrived at. But what isn't immediately obvious is that it can't work if the calculation is done just once.

Input: Data Set containing multiple records where each record contains the Url of the Page(from Url) followed by the url of a page to which it is pointing to(ToUrl).

FromUrl

Wiki_Votes.txt

ToUrl

Output:The output file consist of records containing the url of the page(from Url), the page rank value of the page(PRValue) and the list of urls to which the page points to(ToUrlList).

Self Loops:

-handled by checking the FromUrl with ToUrl before sending it to the reduce function

Dangling Pages:

-handled by initializing their PRValue with 1/N and the List of ToUrls is left blank.

1. Output for each outlink:

key: “1.html”

value: PRValue/ ListLength

(Vote Share)

2. ToUrl itself

key: index.html

value: <OutList>

Reduce Input:

Key: “1.html”

Value : UrlList <OutLink>

Output:

Key: “1.html”

Value: “<new pagerank>

<OutList> 1.html 2.html...”

Start with the initial PageRank and Outlinks of a document.

convergence (determined by the precision value).

Suppose we have 2 pages, A and B, which link to each other, and neither have any other links of any kind. This is what happens:-

Step 1: Calculate A's PageRank from the value of its inbound links

Step 2: Calculate B's PageRank from the value of its inbound links

we can't work out A's PageRank until we know B's PageRank, and we can't work out B's PageRank until we know A's PageRank. Thus the PageRank of A and B will be inaccurate.

This problem is overcome by repeating the calculations many times. Each time produces slightly more accurate values. In fact, total accuracy can never be achieved because the calculations are always based on inaccurate values.The number of iterations should be sufficient to reach a point where any further iterations wouldn't produce enough of a change to the values to matter.

=> Use “delta function” which will keep track of changes in the PageRank of all the pages and if the change in PageRank of all the pages is less than the value specified by the user the iterations can be stopped.

A simple model of Search Engine. (Implemented)

The application utilizes: 1. The PageRank calculated by the PageRank Calculator2. The output generated by a map-reduce module that

finds out the number of times a pattern (as per the user’s query) matches in each of the files present in data set.

And outputs:The list of pages which are relevant to the query made in the order of their importance.

(DEMO)

Other Applications:

• PageRank-based mechanism to rank knowledge items used in E-Learning.

• GeneRank (based on PageRank) ranks the genes analyzed in the microarray to see the relationship between the cell’s function and gene expression.

• Can be used to sort the items present in the side menu in various blogs and sites depending on their importance.
