Abstract

E-commerce customers and general Web users should not believe that the products suggested by Recommender systems or results displayed by Web search engines are either complete or relevant to their search aspirations. The economic priority of Web related businesses requires a higher rank on Web snippets or product suggestions in order to receive additional customers; furthermore, Web search engines and recommender systems revenue is obtained from advertisements and pay-per-click. This survey paper presents a review of Web Search Engines, Ranking Algorithms, Citation Analysis and Recommender Systems. In addition, Neural networks and Deep Learning are also analyzed including their use in learning relevance and ranking. Finally, this survey paper also introduces the Random Neural Network with its practical applications.
