Adaptive Web Navigation for Wireless Devices

چکیده
Visitors who browse the web from wireless PDAs, cell phones, and pagers are frequently stymied by web interfaces optimized for desktop PCs. Simply replacing graphics with text and reformatting tables does not solve the problem, because deep link structures can still require minutes to traverse. In this paper we develop an algorithm, MINPATH, that automatically improves wireless web navigation by suggesting useful shortcut links in real time. MINPATH finds shortcuts by using a learned model of web visitor behavior to estimate the savings of shortcut links, and suggests only the few best links. We explore a variety of predictive models, including Naı̈ve Bayes mixture models and mixtures of Markov models, and report empirical evidence that MINPATH finds useful shortcuts that save substantial navigational effort.

متن کاملA Hierarchical SLAM/GPS/INS Sensor Fusion with WLFP for Flying Robo-SAR's Navigation
In this paper, we present the results of a hierarchical SLAM/GPS/INS/WLFP sensor fusion to be used in navigation system devices. Due to low quality of the inertial sensors, even a short-term GPS failure can lower the integrated navigation performance significantly. In addition, in GPS denied environments, most navigation systems need a separate assisting resource, in order to increase the avail...
متن کاملWeb Site Personalizers for Mobile Devices
The fastest growing community of web users is that of mobile visitors who browse with wireless PDAs, cell phones, and pagers. Unfortunately, most web sites today are optimized exclusively for desktop, broadband clients, and deliver content poorly suited for mobile devices — devices that can display only a few lines of text using slow wireless networks. To best serve the needs of this growing co...

متن کاملNavigation preferences and task performance in a web-based virtual environment
Web-based virtual reality applications allow to present content in a vivid and interactive way, but their users are confined to conventional input and output devices. This is especially problematic with regard to navigation, as the mouse and the arrow-keys of the keyboard are two-dimensional controllers, while navigation in virtual environments requires manipulating the viewpoint in six axes. I...
