Efficient SimRank-based Similarity Join Over Large Graphs

Summary: Efficient SimRank-based similarity join over large graphs. Prunes candidate vertex pairs with an estimated shortest-path distance upper bound; introduces h-go cover, a compact index to rapidly compute SimRank from a small materialized set, plus a partition-based extension with solid theory and experiments.
