Abstract

Application of kernel methods to link analysis is presented. Novel kernels based on directed graph Laplacians are proposed and their application as measures of relatedness between nodes in a directed graph is presented. The kernels express relatedness and take into account the global importance of the nodes in a citation graph. Limitations of existing kernels are given with a discussion how they are addressed by directed Laplacian kernels. Links between the kernels and PageRank ranking algorithm are also presented. The proposed kernels are evaluated on a dataset of scientific bibliographic citations.
