Methods for organizing web data into groups in order to analyze web-based hypertext data and facilitate data availability are very important in terms of the number of documents available online. Thereby, the task of clustering web-based document structures has many applications, e.g., improving information retrieval on the web, better understanding of user navigation behavior, improving web use...

With the rapid increasing popularity of the WWW, Websites are playing a crucial role to convey knowledge to the end users. Every request of Web site or a transaction on the server is stored in a file called server log file. Providing Web administrator with meaningful information about user access behavior (also called click stream data) has become a necessity to improve the quality of Web infor...

Web mining involves activities such as document clustering, community mining etc. to be performed on web. Such tasks need measuring semantic similarity between words. This helps in performing web mining activities easily in many applications. However, the accuracy of measuring semantic similarity between any two words is difficult task. In this paper a new approach is proposed to measure simila...

with the increased confidence in the use of the internet and the world wide web, the number of electronic commerce (e-commerce) transactions is growing rapidly. therefore, finding useful patterns and rules of users’ behaviors has become the critical issue for e-commerce and can be used to tailor e-commerce services in order to successfully meet the customers’ needs. this paper proposes an appro...

Since web applications make great progress, the latency of Internet owing to the network bandwidth becomes an urge problem in the cyber world. It is very important to deliberate on how to construct a prediction model to predict web users traveling path for adapting the website structure and improving the website performance. A trend based prediction model without extra information is proposed i...

The proliferation of internet along with the attractiveness of the web in recent years has made web mining as the research area of great magnitude. Web mining essentially has many advantages which makes this technology attractive to researchers. The analysis of web user’s navigational pattern within a web site can provide useful information for applications like, server performance enhancements...

web usage mining (wum) is the automatic discovering of hidden informationof user access pattern from the web log data. frequent pattern discovery is one ofthe main techniques in wum that can be used to implement recommender systems,forecast user`s navigational behaviour, and personalize web sites. many algorithmshave been suggested on obtaining frequent user navigation patterns. this paperprese...

Web mining is the application of data mining technology to discover patterns from the web. The various tasks on web such as relation extraction, community mining, document clustering and automatic metadata extraction. A previously proposed web-based semantic similarity measures on three benchmark datasets showing high correlation with human rating. One of the main problems in information retrie...
