    Panda - reduce rankings for low-quality sites
    Penguin - reduce spamming and low quality back links

    Panda update were meant to penalize low quality websites and Penguin updates are meant to promote high quality sites while penalizing spammy sites.Basically, Panda updates are designed to target pages that aren’t necessarily spam but aren’t great quality.Panda updates targeted low quality sites.The sites which uses short articles, written with poor quality language skills and scraped from other sites, are got penalized.Penguin is an “important algorithm change targeted at webspam.The change will decrease rankings for sites that we believe are violating Google’s existing quality guidelines.”

    Google Panda algorithm mainly targets websites with lower traffic.

    Google penguin algorithm mainly concentrates on the web-spam.

    Google Panda is an algorithm that provides priority to the website with proper content and penalize the site which has duplicate content and site is full of links.

    Google Penguin algorithms objective is targeting webspam, which includes, Little, poor or duplicate content, Hidden text, Keyword stuffing, Clocking, Link spam and schemes.

    Do both Panda and Penguin use data of each other to perform their intended functions ?
    Can we say that both are Google tools that work to reduce ranking of low quality and spammy websites ,and at the same time, increase the ranking of high quality and genuine websites.

    Panda targets on site factors such as duplicate content/low quality contet
    Penguin targets over optimisation of anchor text both off site and on site

    Google penguin targets on spam links and back links from non related sites or unauthorized site.

    As per my knowledge,
    Google panda is mostly focused on Quality. It decreases the rank of overoptimized and low quality contain sites.
    Google penguin decreases the rank of a site which used Black hat SEO techniques to increase PR.

    Panda update to trap the duplicate content so the visitor could get their desired content.
    Penguin update to prevent low quality link building or to prevent identical anchor text.
