Scalable Similarity Search for SimRank
Summary: Scalable SimRank-based similarity search for graphs with billions of edges using a linearized recursive formula and Monte-Carlo estimation of s(u,v). Exploits rapid decay with distance to prune to a local neighborhood and combines two precomputed upper bounds with adaptive sampling to achieve fast top-20 queries after an O(n) preprocess.
