Measuring the Navigability of Document Networks

Browsing by similarity is a search tactic familiar to most people but one that the web unevenly supports. We are interested in user interface tools that augment the web with links to help users navigate from one relevant document to other relevant documents. We propose a combination of simple metrics to measure the navigability of document networks. These measures provide for low cost evaluation of the document networks formed by similarity measures and other link creation methods.
