Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide for collaborative filtering during retrieval of a graph. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for collaborative filtering of a graph includes loading a data set from a repository of data and representing the data set in a graph of a plurality of arranged nodes and links therebetween. A primary node can be identified amongst the nodes of the graph a composite rating can be retrieved for different ones of the arranged nodes. In this regard, the composite rating for a corresponding one of the nodes can include an aggregation of different ratings previously applied to the corresponding one of the nodes by different end users. Finally, a subset of the arranged nodes can be selected based upon the identified primary node and a composite rating of one or more other nodes.
