An Efficient Similarity Search Framework for SimRank over Large Dynamic Graphs

Summary: TSF, a two-stage random-walk framework for SimRank on dynamic graphs, indexes walks with one-way graphs for efficient updates. Pruning by connectivity and R_q samples yield probabilistic, bounded SimRank estimates with disk-backed storage for billion-edge scalability. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
