Vasia Kalavri commented on FLINK-3879: -------------------------------------- [~greghogan] - Do we agree that the PR for FLINK-2044 is now in good state and could be merged? Or would you rather benchmark this against it and go for the most performant one? - Gelly library methods: currently there are scatter-gather and GSA implementations for PageRank, Connected Components, and SSSP. We have these because GSA performs better for graphs with skewed degree distributions. In the Gelly docs-[iteration abstractions comparison|https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/apis/batch/libs/gelly.html#iteration-abstractions-comparison], we describe when GSA should be preferred over scatter-gather. Maybe we can make this more explicit. There is no Pregel implementation (only in examples). The {{GSATriangleCount}} library method has proved to be very inefficient and should be removed imo (I'll open a JIRA). - I'm not sure what you mean by "approximate HITS"? > Native implementation of HITS algorithm > --------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-3879 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3879 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Gelly > Affects Versions: 1.1.0 > Reporter: Greg Hogan > Assignee: Greg Hogan > Fix For: 1.1.0 > > > Hyperlink-Induced Topic Search (HITS, also "hubs and authorities") is > presented in [0] and described in [1]. > "[HITS] is a very popular and effective algorithm to rank documents based on > the link information among a set of documents.
