1 Updating PageRank Amy Langville Carl Meyer Department of Mathematics North Carolina State University Raleigh, NC SCCM 11/17/2003

2 Indexing Google Must index key terms on each page Robots crawl the web software does indexing Inverted file structure (like book index: terms to pages) Term 1 P i, P j,... Term 2 P k, P l,.... Ranking Determine a PageRank for each page P i, P j, P k, P l,... Query independent Based only on link structure Query matching Q = Term 1, Term 2,... produces P i, P j, P k, P l,... Return P i, P j, P k, P l,... to user in order of PageRank

3 Google s PageRank Idea (Sergey Brin & Lawrence Page 1998) Rankings are not query dependent Depend only on link structure Off-line calculations Your page P has some rank r(p) Adjust r(p) higher or lower depending on ranks of pages that point to P Importance is not number of in-links or out-links One link to P from Yahoo! is important Many links to P from me is not Yahoo! points many places value of link to P is diluted

4 The Definition r(p) = r(p) P P B P Successive Refinement Start with r 0 (P i ) = 1/n PageRank B P = {all pages pointing to P } P = number of out links from P for all pages P 1, P 2,..., P n Iteratively refine rankings for each page r 1 (P i ) = r 0 (P) P P B Pi r 2 (P i ) = r 1 (P) P P B Pi... r j+1 (P i ) = r j (P) P P B Pi

5 After Step j In Matrix Notation π T j = [ r j (P 1 ), r j (P 2 ),..., r j (P n ) ] π T j+1 = πt j P where p ij = PageRank = lim j π T j = π T { 1/ Pi if i j 0 otherwise (provided limit exists) It s A Markov Chain P = [ ] p ij is a stochastic matrix (row sums = 1) Each π T j is a probability distribution vector ) ( i r j(p i )=1 π T j+1 = πt j P is random walk on the graph defined by links π T = lim j π T j = stationary probability distribution

6 Random Surfer Web Surfer Randomly Clicks On Links (Back button not a link) Long-run proportion of time on page P i is π i Problems Dead end page (nothing to click on) π T not well defined Could get trapped into a cycle (P i P j P i ) No convergence Convergence Markov chain must be irreducible and aperiodic Bored Surfer Enters Random URL Replace P by P = αp + (1 α)e e ij = 1/n α.85 Different E = ev T and α allow customization & speedup

7 Computing π T A Big Problem Solve π T = π T P π T (I P) = 0 (stationary distribution vector) (too big for direct solves)

9 Computing π T A Big Problem Solve π T = π T P π T (I P) = 0 (stationary distribution vector) (too big for direct solves) Start with π T 0 = e/n and iterate πt j+1 = πt j P (power method)

10 Computing π T A Big Problem Solve π T = π T P π T (I P) = 0 (stationary distribution vector) (too big for direct solves) Start with π T 0 = e/n and iterate πt j+1 = πt j P (power method) A Bigger Problem Updating Link structure of web is extremely dynamic Links on CNN change frequently Links are added and deleted almost continuously Google says just start from scratch every 3 to 4 weeks Old results don t help to restart

11 The Updating Problem Given: Original chain s P andπ T and new chain s P Find: new chain s π T

12 Idea behind Aggregation Best for NCD systems (Simon and Ando (1960s), Courtois (1970s)) C 1 C 2 C 3 C 1 C 2 P = Π Τ Π τ C 3 C 1 C 2 C 3 A = C 1 C 2 C 3 a i j Τ = Π P ij e ξ Τ = ξ 1 ξ 2 ξ 3 Π Τ ~ ξ 1 Π Τ ξ 2 Π Τ ξ 3 Π Τ Pro Con exploits structure to reduce work produces an approximation, quality is dependent on degree of coupling

13 Iterative Aggregation Problem: repeated aggregation leads to fixed point. Solution: Do a power step to move off fixed point. Do this iteratively. Approximations improve and approach exact solution. Success with NCD systems, not in general. Input: approximation to Π get censored distributions Π T Π T Π T get coupling constants Output: get approximate global stationary distribution Output: move off fixed point with power step T ξ i T = ξ ξ ξ Π Π T Π T Π T 1 2 3

14 Exact Aggregation (Meyer 1989) P = C 1 C 2 C 3 s i T = censored (stat.) dist. of stochastic complement S i = P i i+ P i (I - P ) P i * * * For 2-level partition, -1-1 S 1= P 11 + P 12 (I - P 22) P2 1 S i C 1 C 2 C 3 A = C 1 C 2 C 3 Τ s i a i j = P ij e ξ Τ = ξ 1 ξ 2 ξ 3 Π Τ Τ ξ 1 ξ Τ 2 ξ Τ = s 1 s 3 s 3 2 Pro Con only one step needed to produce exact global vector SC matrices S i are very expensive to compute

15 Back to Updating... C 1 C 2 C 3 P = C g-1 C g C g+1 C 1 C 1 C 2 C 3 C g-1 C g C g+1 A = C 2 C 3 C g-1 C g C g+1

16 Partitioned Matrix P n n = ( G G ) G P 11 P 12 G P 21 P 22 Aggregation = p p 1g r T p g1... p gg r T g π T = (π 1,...π g π g+1,..., π n ) Advantages of this Partition c 1... c g P 22 p pgg are 1 1 = Stochastic complements = 1 = censored distributions = 1 Only one significant complement S 2 = P 22 + P 21 (I P 11 ) 1 P 12 Only one significant censored dist s T 2 S 2 = s T 2 A/D Theorem = s T 2 = (π g+1,..., π n )/ n i=g+1 π i

17 Aggregation Matrix A = p p 1g r T 1 e p g1... p gg r T g e s T 2 c 1... s T 2 c g s T 2 P 22e = (g+1) (g+1) [ P11 P 12 e s T 2 P 21 1 s T 2 P 21e ] The Aggregation/Disaggregation Theorem If α T = (α 1,..., α g, α g+1 ) = stationary dist for A Then π T = ( α 1,..., α g α g+1 s2) T = stationary dist for P Trouble! Always A Big Problem G small G big S 2 = P 22 + P 21 (I P 11 ) 1 P 12 large G big A large

18 Assumption Approximate Aggregation Updating involves relatively few states [ ] P11 P 12 e G small A = s T 2 P 21 1 s T 2 P 21e Approximation (π g+1,..., π n ) (φ g+1,..., φ n ), small (g+1) (g+1) where φ T is old PageRank vector and π T is new, updated PageRank s T 2 = (π g+1,..., π n ) n π i=g+1 i (φ g+1,..., φ n ) n φ i=g+1 i = s T 2 [ ] A Ã = P11 P 12 e s T 2 P 21 1 s T 2 P 21e α T α T = ( ) α 1,..., α g, α g+1 π T π T = ( ) α 1,..., α g α g+1 s T 2 (avoids computing s T 2 for large S 2) (not bad)

19 Iterative Aggregation Improve By Successive Aggregation / Disaggregation? Solution NO Can t do A/D twice a fixed point emerges Perturb A/D output to move off of fixed point Move it in direction of solution π T = π T P The Iterative A/D Updating Algorithm Determine the G-set partition S = G G Approximate A/D step generates approximation π T Smooth the result π T = π T P (a smoothing step) Use π T as input to another approximate aggregation step.

20 How to Partition for Updating Problem? Intuition There are some bad states (G) and some good states (G). Give more attention to bad states. Each state in G forms a partitioning level. Much progress toward correct PageRank is made during aggregation step. Lump good states in G into 1 superstate. Progress toward correct PageRank is made during smoothing step (power iteration).

21 Definitions for Good and Bad 1. Good = states least likely to have π i change Bad = states most likely to have π i change 2. Good = states with smallest π i after k transient steps Bad = states nearby, with largest π i after k transient steps 3. Good = smallest π i from old PageRank vector Bad = largest π i from old PageRank vector 4. Good = fast converging states Bad = slow converging states

22 Determining Fast and Slow Consider power method and its rate of convergence π T k+1 = π T k P = π T k eπ T + λ k 2π T k x 2 y T 2 + λ k 3π T k x 3 y T λ k nπ T k x n y T n Asymptotic rate of convergence is rate at which λ k 2 0 Consider convergence of elements Some states converge to stationary value faster than λ 2 rate, due to LH e vector y T 2. Partitioning Rule Put states with largest y T 2 i values in bad group G, where Practicality y T 2 they receive more individual attention in aggregation method. expensive, but for PageRank problem, Kamvar et al. show states with large π i are slow-converging. inexpensive soln = use old π T to determine G. (adaptively approximate y T 2 )

23 Power law for PageRank Scale-free Model of Web network creates power laws (Kamvar, Barabasi, Raghavan)

24 Theorem Convergence Always converges to stationary dist π T for P Converges for all partitions S = G G Rate of convergence is rate at which S n 2 converges S 2 = P 22 +P 21 (I P 11 ) 1 P 12 Dictated by Jordan structure of λ 2 (S 2 ) λ 2 (S 2 ) simple = π T k πt at the rate at which λ n 2 0 The Game Goal now is to find a relatively small G that minimizes λ 2 (S 2 )

36 Genetics Power Method Iterative Aggregation Iterations Time nodes = 2, 952 links = 6, 485 G Iterations Time

37 Conclusions First updating algorithm to handle both element and state updates. Algorithm is very sensitive to partition. For PageRank problem, partition can be determined cheaply from old PageRanks. For general Markov updating, use y T 2 to determine partition. When too expensive, approximate adaptively with Aitken s δ 2 or difference of successive iterates. Improvements Practical Optimize G-set Accelerate Smoothing Theoretical Relationship between partitioning by y T 2 and λ 2(S 2 ) not well-understood. Predict algorithm and partitioning by old π T will work very well on other scale-free networks.
