Modelling Social Network Sites with PageRank and Social Competences

Abstract

[EN] In this communication a recent method to classify the users of an SNS into Competitivity groups is recalled. This method is based on the PageRank algorithm. Competitivity groups are sets of nodes that compete among each other to gain PageRank via the personalization vector. Specific features of the SNSs (such as number of friends or activity of the users) can be considered as Social Competences. By means of these Social Competences a node can modify its ranking inside a Competitivity group.This work is supported by Spanish DGI grant MTM2010-18674.Pedroche Sánchez, F. (2011).
