Abstract
Disclosed is a method of ranking linkable nodes based on intrinsic scores assigned to the nodes. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes the steps of analyzing each document with respect to at least one criterion comprising the frequency of occurrence of a search token, and assigning an intrinsic score to each document based on the analysis, the intrinsic score measuring at least one intrinsic property of the respective document and not its relations to other documents; identifying links between the documents; and using a processor, generating a ranking score for each document based at least in part on the intrinsic scores of nodes linked therewith.
