Principal Clusters Analysis: Analyzing Web Navigation Using a Multivariate Technique
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a new statistical approach, called principal clusters analysis, for analyzing millions of user navigations among Web documents. This technique can identify distinct clusters of related information on a given topic. In addition, it can determine which information items within a cluster are useful starting points to explore the topic of the cluster, as well as key documents within the cluster to explore the topic in greater detail. This technique should prove promising in addressing information overload and other knowledge management issues.

متن کاملChoosing the Best Hierarchical Clustering Technique Based on Principal Components Analysis for Suspended Sediment Load Estimation
1- INTRODUCTION The assessment of watershed sediment load is necessary for controling soil erosion and reducing the potential of sediment production. Different estimates of sediment amounts along with the lack of long-term measurements limits the accessibility to reliable data series of erosion rate and sediment yield. Therefore, the observed data of suspended sediment load could be used to ...
