During my investigation I found this article which claims an even earlier origin for this algorithm: https://m.phys.org/news/2010-02-google-pagerank-like-algorithm-dates.html https://m.phys.org/news/2010-02-google-pagerank-like-algorit...
- Hydraulix989 7y agoThese aren’t algorithms, they are just hand waving intuition that is “on the right track” but not quite there. You see similar “prior art” to Newtonian physics, for example, but there is still a huge leap from “oh, there might be something in these linkages” to “if we compute the stationary distribution of the Markov chain over the graph, we know the relative importance of each node.” Kleinberg was the first to algorithmically and rigorously codify this intuition.
