- This paper talks about an extension of the SEAL system. Authors propose an iterative variant of the
set expansion system where multiple calls are made to the SEAL system with a lesser number of seeds.
- Authors choose best seed after each iteration based on a ranking mechanism as a feed-in for next iteration.
- They discuss different ranking strategies namely RandomWalk with restart, pagerank, bayesian sets and wrapper length based. Out of all, random walk seems to do well in the experimental results shown in the paper.
