Probabilistic Latent Clustering of Device Usage
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate an application of Probabilistic Latent Semantics to the problem of device usage analysis in an infrastructure in which multiple users have access to a shared pool of devices delivering different kinds of service and service levels. Each invocation of a service by a user, called a job, is assumed to be logged simply as a co-occurrence of the identifier of the user and that of the device used. The data is best modeled by assuming that multiple latent variables (instead of a single one as in traditional PLSA) satisfying different types of constraints explain the observed variables of a job. We discuss the application of our model to the printing infrastructure in an office environment.

DNS Usage Mining Based on Clustering Analysis of Co-occurrence Patterns: Methods and Applications
The principal goal of DNS usage mining is the discovery and analysis of patterns in the query behavior of DNS users. In this paper, we develop a unified framework for DNS usage mining based on Clustering analysis of cooccurrence data derived from DNS server query data. Through transforming the raw query data into co-occurrence matrix, some clustering approaches and probabilistic inferences can ...
متن کاملCo-clustering for Weblogs in Semantic Space
Web clustering is an approach for aggregating web objects into various groups according to underlying relationships among them. Finding co-clusters of web objects in semantic space is an interesting topic in the context of web usage mining, which is able to capture the underlying user navigational interest and content preference simultaneously. In this paper we will present a novel web co-clust...

Collaborative recommendation is one of widely used recommendation systems, which recommend items to visitor on a basis of referring other’s preference that is similar to current user. User profiling technique upon Web transaction data is able to capture such informative knowledge of user task or interest. With the discovered usage pattern information, it is likely to recommend Web users more pr...
متن کاملClassification and clustering methods for documents by probabilistic latent semantic indexing model
Based on information retrieval model especially probabilistic latent semantic indexing (PLSI) model, we discuss methods for classification and clustering of a set of documents. A method for classification is presented and is demonstrated its good performance by applying to a set of benchmark documents with free format (text only). Then the classification method is modified to a clustering metho...
