Incorporating weight properties in detection of web spam

This paper focus on incorporating weight properties to enhance Web spam detection algorithms. Our proposed methodology adds this feature into Anti-TrustRank algorithm and call it weighted Anti-TrustRank algorithm to show the effectiveness of the weight properties using a new metric. Experiments are conducted on WEBSPAM-UK2006, a public Web spam dataset and have shown that weighted Anti-TrustRank significantly outperforms Anti-TrustRank algorithm up to 37.85%
