modifying the first score using the second score based on the relationship, and
modifying the first score using one or more of the second ranking scores based on the one or more of the second ranking scores being associated with one or more of the plurality of comments authored by the first user.
6. The method of claim 1 , where modifying the first ranking scores includes:
modifying the first ranking scores based on measures of quality of the plurality of comments.
7. The method of claim 1 , where modifying the second ranking scores includes:
modifying the second ranking scores based on measures of reputations of the plurality of users.
8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:
one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
simultaneously calculate first ranking scores for a plurality of users and second ranking scores for a plurality of comments authored by the plurality of users,
the one or more instructions to simultaneously calculate the first ranking scores and the second ranking scores including:
one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
modify the first ranking scores using the second ranking scores, and
modify the second ranking scores using the first ranking scores; and
provide one or more of:
a first ranked list that includes information identifying the plurality of users,
the information identifying the plurality of users being ordered based on the first ranking scores, or
a group of comments of the plurality of comments,
comments, in the group of comments, being ordered based on the second ranking scores.
9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , where the one or more instructions to modify the first ranking scores and the one or more instructions to modify the second ranking scores continue until the first ranking scores and the second ranking scores converge.
10. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , where the first ranking scores and the second ranking scores are modified a predetermined quantity of times.
11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , where the one or more instructions to modify the first ranking scores include:
one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
modify one of the first ranking scores with one or more of the second ranking scores,
the one of the first ranking scores being associated with one user of the plurality of users, and
the one or more of the second ranking scores being associated with one or more comments, of the plurality of comments, authored by the one user.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , where the plurality of users includes a first user and a second user,
where the first ranking scores include a first score associated with the first user and a second score associated with the second user,
where the instructions further comprise:
one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to determine a relationship between the first user and the second user; and
where the one or more instructions to modify the first ranking scores include:
one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
modify the first score using the second score based on the relationship, and
modify the first score using one or more of the second ranking scores based on the one or more of the second ranking scores being associated with one or more of the plurality of comments authored by the first user.
13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , where the one or more instructions to modify the first ranking scores include:
one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to modify the first ranking scores based on measures of quality of the plurality of comments.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , where the one or more instructions to modify the second ranking scores include:
one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to modify the second ranking scores based on measures of reputations of the plurality of users.
15. A device comprising:
one or more processors to:
simultaneously calculate first ranking scores for a plurality of users and second ranking scores for a plurality of comments authored by the plurality of users,
