Abstract
A method and computer system for constructing a link structure for T documents. An initial link structure Gbetween the T documents is generated. For each document d of D documents of the T documents, a loop of no more than M iterations is performed. In each iteration: a search engine is used to generate a ranking order of T' documents consisting of the T documents except document d; the initial link structure Gis modified according to the ranking order to generate a modified link structure G; if a condition is satisfied then the loop is exited and the modified link structure Gis outputted, otherwise Gis set equal to Gand a next iteration of the loop is performed. The condition is that a measure of a difference between Gand Gis less than a specified threshold or the M iterations were performed.
