Abstract

Numerous studies have explored the possibility of uncovering information from web search queries but few have examined the factors that affect web query data sources. We conducted a study that investigated this issue by comparing Google Trends and Baidu Index. Data from these two services are based on queries entered by users into Google and Baidu, two of the largest search engines in the world. We first compared the features and functions of the two services based on documents and extensive testing. We then carried out an empirical study that collected query volume data from the two sources. We found that data from both sources could be used to predict the quality of Chinese universities and companies. Despite the differences between the two services in terms of technology, such as differing methods of language processing, the search volume data from the two were highly correlated and combining the two data sources did not improve the predictive power of the data. However, there was a major difference between the two in terms of data availability. Baidu Index was able to provide more search volume data than Google Trends did. Our analysis showed that the disadvantage of Google Trends in this regard was due to Google's smaller user base in China. The implication of this finding goes beyond China. Google's user bases in many countries are smaller than that in China, so the search volume data related to those countries could result in the same issue as that related to China.

Abstract

Understanding what kinds of Web pages are the most useful for Web search engine users is a critical task in Web information retrieval (IR). Most previous works used hyperlink analysis algorithms to solve this problem. However, little research has been focused on query-independent Web data cleansing for Web IR. In this paper, we first provide analysis of the differences between retrieval target pages and ordinary ones based on more than 30 million Web pages obtained from both the Text Retrieval Conference (TREC) and a widely used Chinese search engine, SOGOU (www.sogou.com). We further propose a learning-based data cleansing algorithm for reducing Web pages that are unlikely to be useful for user requests. We found that there exists a large proportion of low-quality Web pages in both the English and the Chinese Web page corpus, and retrieval target pages can be identified using query-independent features and cleansing algorithms. The experimental results showed that our algorithm is effective in reducing a large portion of Web pages with a small loss in retrieval target pages. It makes it possible for Web IR tools to meet a large fraction of users' needs with only a small part of pages on the Web. These results may help Web search engines make better use of their limited storage and computation resources to improve search performance.

Abstract

With more than two billion pages created by millions of Web page authors and organizations, the World Wide Web is a tremendously rich knowledge base. The knowledge comes not only from the content of the pages themselves, but also from the unique characteristics of the Web, such as its hyperlink structure and its diversity of content and languages. Analysis of these characteristics often reveals interesting patterns and new knowledge. Such knowledge can be used to improve users' efficiency and effectiveness in searching for information an the Web, and also for applications unrelated to the Web, such as support for decision making or business management. The Web's size and its unstructured and dynamic content, as well as its multilingual nature, make the extraction of useful knowledge a challenging research problem. Furthermore, the Web generates a large amount of data in other formats that contain valuable information. For example, Web server logs' information about user access patterns can be used for information personalization or improving Web page design.

Abstract

Das World Wide Web kann als die größte uns bekannte "Datenbank" angesehen werden. Leider ist das heutige Web großteils auf die Präsentation für menschliche Benutzerinnen ausgelegt und besteht aus sehr heterogenen Datenbeständen. Überdies fehlen im Web die Möglichkeiten Informationen strukturiert und aus verschiedenen Quellen aggregiert abzufragen. Das heutige Web ist daher für die automatische maschinelle Verarbeitung nicht geeignet. Um Webdaten dennoch effektiv zu nutzen, wurden Sprachen, Methoden und Werkzeuge zur Extraktion und Aggregation dieser Daten entwickelt. Dieser Artikel gibt einen Überblick und eine Kategorisierung von verschiedenen Ansätzen zur Datenextraktion aus dem Web. Einige Beispielszenarien im B2B Datenaustausch, im Business Intelligence Bereich und insbesondere die Generierung von Daten für Semantic Web Ontologien illustrieren die effektive Nutzung dieser Technologien.

Abstract

The amount of information on the Web has been expanding at an enormous pace. There are a variety of Web documents in different genres, such as news, reports, reviews. Traditionally, the information displayed on Web sites has been static. Recently, there are many Web sites offering content that is dynamically generated and frequently updated. It is also common for Web sites to contain information in different languages since many countries adopt more than one language. Moreover, content may exist in multimedia formats including text, images, video, and audio.

Abstract

The behavior of modern web robots varies widely when they crawl for different purposes. In this article, we present a framework to classify these web robots from two orthogonal perspectives, namely, their functionality and the types of resources they consume. Applying the classification framework to a year-long access log from the UConn SoE web server, we present trends that point to significant differences in their crawling behavior.

Abstract

"Garbage in, garbage out" is a well-known phrase in computer analysis, and one that comes to mind when mining Web data to draw conclusions about Web users. The challenge is that data analysts wish to infer patterns of client-side behavior from server-side data. However, because only a fraction of the user's actions ever reaches the Web server, analysts must rely an incomplete data. In this paper, we propose a client-side monitoring system that is unobtrusive and supports flexible data collection. Moreover, the proposed framework encompasses client-side applications beyond the Web browser. Expanding monitoring beyond the browser to incorporate standard office productivity tools enables analysts to derive a much richer and more accurate picture of user behavior an the Web.

Abstract

We present an approach to enhancing information access through Web structure mining in contrast to traditional approaches involving usage mining. Specifically, we mine the hardwired hierarchical hyperlink structure of Web sites to identify patterns of term-term co-occurrences we call Web functional dependencies (FDs). Intuitively, a Web FD x -> y declares that all paths through a site involving a hyperlink labeled x also contain a hyperlink labeled y. The complete set of FDs satisfied by a site help characterize (flexible and expressive) interaction paradigms supported by a site, where a paradigm is the set of explorable sequences therein. We describe algorithms for mining FDs and results from mining several hierarchical Web sites and present several interface designs that can exploit such FDs to provide compelling user experiences.

Abstract

Web mining aims to discover useful information and knowledge from the Web hyperlink structure, page contents, and usage data. Although Web mining uses many conventional data mining techniques, it is not purely an application of traditional data mining due to the semistructured and unstructured nature of the Web data and its heterogeneity. It has also developed many of its own algorithms and techniques. Liu has written a comprehensive text on Web data mining. Key topics of structure mining, content mining, and usage mining are covered both in breadth and in depth. His book brings together all the essential concepts and algorithms from related areas such as data mining, machine learning, and text processing to form an authoritative and coherent text. The book offers a rich blend of theory and practice, addressing seminal research ideas, as well as examining the technology from a practical point of view. It is suitable for students, researchers and practitioners interested in Web mining both as a learning text and a reference book. Lecturers can readily use it for classes on data mining, Web mining, and Web search. Additional teaching materials such as lecture slides, datasets, and implemented algorithms are available online.

Abstract

The dynamic nature and size of the Internet can result in difficulty finding relevant information. Most users typically express their information need via short queries to search engines and they often have to physically sift through the search results based on relevance ranking set by the search engines, making the process of relevance judgement time-consuming. In this paper, we describe a novel representation technique which makes use of the Web structure together with summarisation techniques to better represent knowledge in actual Web Documents. We named the proposed technique as Semantic Virtual Document (SVD). We will discuss how the proposed SVD can be used together with a suitable clustering algorithm to achieve an automatic content-based categorization of similar Web Documents. The auto-categorization facility as well as a "Tree-like" Graphical User Interface (GUI) for post-retrieval document browsing enhances the relevance judgement process for Internet users. Furthermore, we will introduce how our cluster-biased automatic query expansion technique can be used to overcome the ambiguity of short queries typically given by users. We will outline our experimental design to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed SVD for representation and present a prototype called iSEARCH (Intelligent SEarch And Review of Cluster Hierarchy) for Web content mining. Our results confirm, quantify and extend previous research using Web structure and summarisation techniques, introducing novel techniques for knowledge representation to enhance Web content mining.

Rez. in: JASIST 55(2004) no.3, S.275-276 (C. Chen): "This is a book about finding significant statistical patterns on the Web - in particular, patterns that are associated with hypertext documents, topics, hyperlinks, and queries. The term pattern in this book refers to dependencies among such items. On the one hand, the Web contains useful information an just about every topic under the sun. On the other hand, just like searching for a needle in a haystack, one would need powerful tools to locate useful information an the vast land of the Web. Soumen Chakrabarti's book focuses an a wide range of techniques for machine learning and data mining an the Web. The goal of the book is to provide both the technical Background and tools and tricks of the trade of Web content mining. Much of the technical content reflects the state of the art between 1995 and 2002. The targeted audience is researchers and innovative developers in this area, as well as newcomers who intend to enter this area. The book begins with an introduction chapter. The introduction chapter explains fundamental concepts such as crawling and indexing as well as clustering and classification. The remaining eight chapters are organized into three parts: i) infrastructure, ii) learning and iii) applications.
Part I, Infrastructure, has two chapters: Chapter 2 on crawling the Web and Chapter 3 an Web search and information retrieval. The second part of the book, containing chapters 4, 5, and 6, is the centerpiece. This part specifically focuses an machine learning in the context of hypertext. Part III is a collection of applications that utilize the techniques described in earlier chapters. Chapter 7 is an social network analysis. Chapter 8 is an resource discovery. Chapter 9 is an the future of Web mining. Overall, this is a valuable reference book for researchers and developers in the field of Web mining. It should be particularly useful for those who would like to design and probably code their own Computer programs out of the equations and pseudocodes an most of the pages. For a student, the most valuable feature of the book is perhaps the formal and consistent treatments of concepts across the board. For what is behind and beyond the technical details, one has to either dig deeper into the bibliographic notes at the end of each chapter, or resort to more in-depth analysis of relevant subjects in the literature. lf you are looking for successful stories about Web mining or hard-way-learned lessons of failures, this is not the book."

Abstract

Als in den siebziger Jahren des vergangenen Jahrhunderts immer häufiger die Bezeichnung Informationsmanager für Leute propagiert wurde, die bis dahin als Dokumentare firmierten, wurde dies in den etablierten Kreisen der Archivare und Bibliothekare gelegentlich belächelt und als Zeichen einer Identitätskrise oder jedenfalls einer Verunsicherung des damit überschriebenen Berufsbilds gewertet. Für den Berufsstand der Medienarchivare/Mediendokumentare, die sich seit 1960 in der Fachgruppe 7 des Vereins, später Verbands deutscher Archivare (VdA) organisieren, gehörte diese Verortung im Zeichen neuer inhaltlicher Herausforderungen (Informationsflut) und Technologien (EDV) allerdings schon früh zu den Selbstverständlichkeiten des Berufsalltags. "Halt, ohne uns geht es nicht!" lautete die Überschrift eines Artikels im Verbandsorgan "Info 7", der sich mit der Einrichtung von immer mächtigeren Leitungsnetzen und immer schnelleren Datenautobahnen beschäftigte. Information, Informationsgesellschaft: diese Begriffe wurden damals fast nur im technischen Sinne verstanden. Die informatisierte, nicht die informierte Gesellschaft stand im Vordergrund - was wiederum Kritiker auf den Plan rief, von Joseph Weizenbaum in den USA bis hin zu den Informations-Ökologen in Bremen. Bei den nationalen, manchmal auch nur regionalen Projekten und Modellversuchen mit Datenautobahnen - auch beim frühen Btx - war nie so recht deutlich geworden, welche Inhalte in welcher Gestalt durch diese Netze und Straßen gejagt werden sollten und wer diese Inhalte eigentlich selektieren, portionieren, positionieren, kurz: managen sollte. Spätestens mit dem World Wide Web sind diese Projekte denn auch obsolet geworden, jedenfalls was die Hardware und Software anging. Geblieben ist das Thema Inhalte (neudeutsch: Content). Und - immer drängender im nicht nur technischen Verständnis - das Thema Informationsmanagement. MedienInformationsManagement war die Frühjahrstagung der Fachgruppe 7 im Jahr 2000 in Weimar überschrieben, und auch die Folgetagung 2001 in Köln, die der multimedialen Produktion einen dokumentarischen Pragmatismus gegenüber stellte, handelte vom Geschäftsfeld Content und von Content-Management-Systemen. Die in diesem 6. Band der Reihe Beiträge zur Mediendokumentation versammelten Vorträge und Diskussionsbeiträge auf diesen beiden Tagungen beleuchten das Titel-Thema aus den verschiedensten Blickwinkeln: archivarischen, dokumentarischen, kaufmännischen, berufsständischen und juristischen. Deutlich wird dabei, daß die Berufsbezeichnung Medienarchivarln/Mediendokumentarln ziemlich genau für all das steht, was heute mit sog. alten wie neuen Medien im organisatorischen, d.h. ordnenden und vermittelnden Sinne geschieht. Im besonderen Maße trifft dies auf das Internet und die aus ihm geborenen Intranets zu. Beide bedürfen genauso der ordnenden Hand, die sich an den alten Medien, an Buch, Zeitung, Tonträger, Film etc. geschult hat, denn sie leben zu großen Teilen davon. Daß das Internet gleichwohl ein Medium sui generis ist und die alten Informationsberufe vor ganz neue Herausforderungen stellt - auch das durchzieht die Beiträge von Weimar und Köln.

Abstract

In this paper, we present a framework for clustering Web search engine queries whose aim is to identify groups of queries used to search for similar information on the Web. The framework is based on a novel term vector model of queries that integrates user selections and the content of selected documents extracted from the logs of a search engine. The query representation obtained allows us to treat query clustering similarly to standard document clustering. We study the application of the clustering framework to two problems: relevance ranking boosting and query recommendation. Finally, we evaluate with experiments the effectiveness of our approach.

Abstract

This paper discusses an approach of collecting qualitative data on human information behaviour that is based on mining web data using search engines. The approach is technically the same that has been used for some time in webometric research to make statistical inferences on web data, but the present paper shows how the same tools and data collecting methods can be used to gather data for qualitative data analysis on human information behaviour.
