Sumita Gupta, Neelam Duhan, Poonam Bansal · 2013
With the increasing use of academic digital libraries, it becomes more important for authors to have their publications or scientific literature well ranked in order to reach their audience. Web mining is a potential candidate to meet this challenge. These techniques when applied on the search results of a user query, provide them an order so that users can easily navigate through the search results and find the desired information content. This is also called Page Ranking. The ranking mechanisms can arrange the scientific literature or publications in order of their relevance, importance and content score. In this paper, a survey of some prevalent page ranking algorithms for academic digital libraries is being carried out and comparison of these algorithms in context of performance has been done.
