Determining the quality of linked documents involves assessing the value of a document based on how other documents link to it and the relationships between those documents.
- The ranking score of a document is determined by the ranking scores of the documents linking to it and the affiliation among them.
- Affiliation refers to how closely related or connected documents are, either by being from the same source or through other factors like traffic patterns or link structures.
- It helps search engines provide users with high-quality and relevant results based on the content and connections between web pages.
