Personalized PageRank
In this exercise, you will study the difference between the PageRank and the personalized PageRank algorithms.
You can use the function boxplots
, which shows the score distributions of churners and non-churners with two separate boxplots.
The function has two arguments:
damping
, indicating the value of the damping factor. The default value is set to 0.85.personalized
, a Boolean parameter that indicates whether the personalized PageRank algorithm should be used. When TRUE, the restart vector has 1 for the churners in the network and 0 for the non-churners. The default value is FALSE, i.e. not personalized.
