How can I normalize vertex scores in a PySpark Pregel algorithm using the sum of neighboring vertex scores?

I’m implementing the Adsorption algorithm in PySpark using GraphFrames. My goal is to send each vertex’s score to its neighboring vertices, scaled by the edge weight, and then normalize each vertex’s score based on the sum of these weighted neighboring scores. I’ve set up message passing with vertex scores, but I’m struggling to incorporate edge weights and ensure that the normalization uses the neighboring scores rather than just the incoming messages. What is the best way to handle this in PySpark’s Pregel API?
