Abstract
An improved system and method is provided for determining web page quality using collective inference based on local and global web page information. A classification engine may be provided for classifying a web page using local features of a seed set of web pages and global web graph information about the seed set of web pages. A dual algorithm based on graph regularization formulated as a well-formed optimization solution may be used in an embodiment for applying collective inference for binary classification of the web page using the local web page information and global web graph information of a web page, the local web page information and global web graph information of an authoritative set of web pages, and the local web page information and global web graph information of a non-authoritative set of web pages.
