Abstract
Artykuł jest poświęcony problemom rankingu i eksploracji blogów. Prezentujemy wprowadzenie do blogosfery i przegląd wcześniejszych prac naukowych. Przedstawiamy relację wpływu występującą między blogami i wykorzystujemy tę relację do odkrycia podzbioru najbardziej wpływowych blogów w kontekście określonym przez zapytanie użytkownika. Metoda zaprezentowana w artykule wykorzystuje dualną reprezentację blogów, która zakłada podział blogu na dwa rozłączne wektory: wektor tematów i wektor cech. Wektor tematów jest wykorzystywany do tematycznego dopasowania blogu do zapytania użytkownika. Wektor cech stanowi rejestr opisywanych pojęć i służy do skonstruowania wynikowego zbioru pojęć. W artykule prezentujemy wyniki wstępnych eksperymentów, które wskazują, że dualna reprezentacja blogów w połączeniu z relacją wpływu stanowi atrakcyjną alternatywę dla aktualnie wykorzystywanych algorytmów rankingu blogów.(abstrakt oryginalny)

In this paper we turn our attention to the fascinating problem of mining and ranking of blogs. We present a brief introduction to the problem of blog ranking and we summarize the related work on the subject. We focus on discovering the influence relation between blogs and blog posts in order to identify the most influential blogs using the context of a user's query. To do so, we transform blogs and blog posts into dual feature term-theme vectors representation. We use term vectors to align candidate blogs with the user query and we rank themes appearing in relevant vectors as possible answers. We also report the results of preliminary experiments conducted on our algorithm, which indicate that our algorithm is capable of delivering interesting and valuable answers.(original abstract)
