TeleportProbability

As of Version 10, all the functionality of the GraphUtilities package is built into the Wolfram System. »

TeleportProbability

is an option to PageRanks, PageRankVector, LinkRanks, and LinkRankMatrix that specifies the probability that an internet user may choose to visit a vertex at random instead of choosing an outlink.

Details and Options

  • To use TeleportProbability, you first need to load the Graph Utilities Package using Needs["GraphUtilities`"].
  • Possible values are positive numbers less than 1. The default value is 0.15.
  • A smaller value makes the PageRanks a more accurate reflection of a normal internet user's behavior, but also makes the iterative process converge more slowly.
