Similarity based Dynamic Web Data Extraction and Integration System from Sear...IDES Editor
There is an explosive growth of information in
the World Wide Web thus posing a challenge to Web users
to extract essential knowledge from the Web. Search
engines help us to narrow down the search in the form of
Search Engine Result Pages (SERP). Web Content Mining
is one of the techniques that help users to extract useful
information from these SERPs. In this paper, we propose
two similarity based mechanisms; WDES, to extract desired
SERPs and store them in the local depository for offline
browsing and WDICS, to integrate the requested contents
and enable the user to perform the intended analysis and
extract the desired information. Our experimental results
show that WDES and WDICS outperform DEPTA [1] in
terms of Precision and Recall.
This document discusses improving web performance through prefetching frequently accessed pages. It begins by introducing the concept of prefetching web pages to reduce latency. Next, it reviews related work on predictive prefetching using techniques like Markov models and association rules to predict future page access. Finally, it proposes an approach to increase web performance by analyzing user access logs and website structure to predict pages for prefetching. The goal is to reduce latency and improve user experience by prefetching relevant pages in the background.
The document discusses methods for improving web navigation efficiency through reconciling website structure based on user browsing patterns. It involves mining the website structure and user logs to determine browsing behaviors. Efficiency is calculated as the shortest path from the start page to the target page divided by the operating cost, defined as the number of pages visited. The approach was tested on a website and was able to reorganize the structure based on user navigation analysis from logs to increase browsing efficiency.
This document presents a heuristic approach for extracting web content using tag trees and heuristics. The approach first parses the web page into a tag tree using an HTML parser. Objects and separators are then extracted from the nested tag tree using heuristics like pattern repeating, standard deviation, and sibling tag heuristics. The main content is identified and implemented using the extracted separators. Experimental results showed the technique outperformed existing methods by extracting only the relevant content for the user's query.

Web personalization using clustering of web usage dataijfcstjournal
The exponential growth in the number and the complexity of information resources and services on the Web
has made log data an indispensable resource to characterize the users for Web-based environment. It
creates information of related web data in the form of hierarchy structure through approximation. This
hierarchy structure can be used as the input for a variety of data mining tasks such as clustering,
association rule mining, sequence mining etc.
In this paper, we present an approach for personalizing web user environment dynamically when he
interacting with web by clustering of web usage data using concept hierarchy. The system is inferred from
the web server’s access logs by means of data and web usage mining techniques to extract the information
about users. The extracted knowledge is used for the purpose of offering a personalized view of the
services to users.

Web Content Mining Based on Dom Intersection and Visual Features Conceptijceronline
Structured Data extraction from deep Web pages is a challenging task due to the underlying complex structures of such pages. Also website developer generally follows different web page design technique. Data extraction from webpage is highly useful to build our own database from number applications. A large number of techniques have been proposed to address this problem, but all of them have inherent limitations because they present different limitations and constraints for extracting data from such webpages. This paper presents two different approaches to get structured data extraction. The first approach is non-generic solution which is based on template detection using intersection of Document Object Model Tree of various webpages from the same website. This approach is giving better result in terms of efficiency and accurately locating the main data at the particular webpage. The second approach is based on partial tree alignment mechanism based on using important visual features such as length, size, and position of web table available on the webpages. This approach is a generic solution as it does not depend on one particular website and its webpage template. It is perfectly locating the multiple data regions, data records and data items within a given web page. We have compared our work's result with existing mechanism and found our result much better for number webpage

This Russian patent application describes a method for simplifying access to internet resources referenced in print or electronic publications. It involves assigning a unique short code to each full internet address (URL) and publishing the code in the publication instead of the full URL. A reader can then enter the code on a website to access the corresponding internet resource and any additional comments or files associated with it in the website database. This allows access even if the original website with the resource is unavailable. The website server indexes resource pages and can provide copies if needed. Users can add multiple related resources and comments through the website using a single code.
Web is a collection of inter-related files on one or more web servers while web mining means extracting valuable information from web databases. Web mining is one of the data mining domains where data mining techniques are used for extracting information from the web servers. The web data includes web
pages, web links, objects on the web and web logs. Web mining is used to understand the customer behaviour, evaluate a particular website based on the information which is stored in web log files. Web mining is evaluated by using data mining techniques, namely classification, clustering, and association
rules. It has some beneficial areas or applications such as Electronic commerce, E-learning, Egovernment, E-policies, E-democracy, Electronic business, security, crime investigation and digital library.

IVBPS extracts blocks from the visual representation of a page and clusters them to segment the page semantically. It uses layout features like position and appearance to locate data regions and extract records. The algorithm analyzes the entire page structure rather than local regions, allowing it to retain content DOM tree methods may discard. This is expected to significantly improve hidden web extraction performance.
Web Page Recommendation Using Web MiningIJERA Editor
On World Wide Web various kind of content are generated in huge amount, so to give relevant result to user web recommendation become important part of web application. On web different kind of web recommendation are made available to user every day that includes Image, Video, Audio, query suggestion and web page. In this paper we are aiming at providing framework for web page recommendation. 1) First we describe the basics of web mining, types of web mining. 2) Details of each web mining technique.3)We propose the architecture for the personalized web page recommendation.
The document proposes a vision-based approach called ViDE (Vision-based Data Extractor) to extract structured data from deep web pages. ViDE explores the visual regularity of data records and items on web pages to identify and understand the visual structure without relying on the underlying programming language or HTML. It employs steps like identifying the visual structure, extracting data records, and partitioning records into data items. The approach is implemented in a tool to help researchers find documents related to authors in their research area by developing modules like a crawler, parser, clusterer and page manager.

This document summarizes a research paper on web usage mining and sequential pattern mining from web logs. It discusses how web usage mining involves preprocessing raw web log data, discovering patterns in the data, and analyzing the patterns. The preprocessing steps include data cleaning, user identification, session identification, and path completion. Pattern discovery methods mentioned are statistical analysis, association rules, clustering, classification, and sequential pattern mining. The goal of the research is to understand users' navigational behaviors by applying sequential pattern mining techniques to discover frequent sequential access patterns in web logs.
This document discusses building a software tool to archive websites using web crawling and blockchain technology. It proposes a system that crawls websites, stores web page content and metadata in WARC files, and records this information in a blockchain database with two layers - a domain blockchain to store domain information and a web content blockchain to store WARC files. This approach aims to provide a consistent and secure system for archiving websites while allowing users to monitor and analyze archived web content. The document reviews related work on web archiving and outlines the proposed system architecture and implementation requirements.

The document discusses web mining techniques for web personalization. It defines web mining as extracting useful information from web data, including web usage mining, web content mining, and web structure mining. Web usage mining involves data gathering, preparation, pattern discovery, analysis, visualization and application. Web content mining extracts information from web document contents. The document then discusses how these web mining techniques can be applied to web personalization by learning about user interactions and interests to customize web page content and presentations.
Deep web contents are accessed by queries submitted to web databases and the returned data records are enwrapped in dynamically generated web pages (they will be called deep Web pages). Extracting structured data from deep web pages is a challenging problem due to the underlying intricate structures of such pages. As the popular two-dimensional media, the contents on web pages are always displayed regularly for users to browse. This motivates us to seek a different way for deep web data extraction to overcome the limitations of previous works by utilizing some interesting common visual features on the deep web pages. In this paper, an agent based authentication mechanism is proposed which uses an agent program runs on the server to authenticate the user. A novel vision-based approach that is web page programming language-independent is also proposed. This approach primarily utilizes the visual features on the deep web pages to implement deep web data extraction, including data record extraction and data item extraction. Our experiments on a large set of web databases show that the proposed vision-based approach is highly effective for deep web data extraction and provides security for the registered user

HIGWGET-A Model for Crawling Secure Hidden WebPagesijdkp
The conventional search engines existing over the internet are active in searching the appropriate
information. The search engine gets few constraints similar to attainment the information seeked from a
different sources. The web crawlers are intended towards a exact lane of the web.Web Crawlers are limited
in moving towards a different path as they are protected or at times limited because of the apprehension of
threats. It is possible to make a web crawler,which will have the ability of penetrating from side to side the
paths of the web, not reachable by the usual web crawlers, so as to get a improved answer in terms of
infoemation, time and relevancy for the given search query. The proposed web crawler is designed to
attend Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) websites including the web pages,which requires
verification to view and index.

The document discusses selecting a new database management system for an organization. Key considerations include ensuring the vendor offers auditing, reporting and data management tools to provide application level security and interface with existing corporate access procedures. The selected solution should be able to automate report production on topics like database compliance, certification, control of activities, and risk assessment to adhere to organizational policies. Application security gateways can provide additional protection by examining network traffic to the database server.
A Study of Pattern Analysis Techniques of Web Usageijbuiiir1
Web mining is the most important application of data mining techniques to extract knowledge from web data including web document, hyperlinks between documents, usage logs of web sites etc. Web mining has been explored to a vast degree and different techniques have been proposed for a huge variety of applications that includes search engine enhancement, optimization of web services, Business Intelligence, B2B and B2C business etc. Most research on web mining has been from a �process-centric� point of view which defined web mining as a sequence of tasks. In this paper, we highlight the significance of studying the evolving nature of the web pattern analysis (WPA). Web usage mining is used to discover interesting user navigation patterns and can be applied to many real-world problems, such as improving web sites/pages. A Web usage mining system performs five major tasks: i) data collection ii) information filtering iii) pattern discovery iv) pattern analysis and visualization techniques, and v) Knowledge Query Mechanism (KQM). Each task is explained in detail and its related technologies are introduced. The web mining research is a converging research area from several research communities, such as database system, information retrieval, information extraction and artificial intelligence. In this paper we implement how web usage mining techniques can be applied for the customization i.e. web visualization
Web-Application Framework for E-Business SolutionIRJET Journal
This document proposes a web-application framework for e-business solutions that uses web data mining techniques to analyze large amounts of data. It discusses how web data mining involves content, structure, and usage mining. The proposed framework collects data from server logs, user registrations, and transactions. It integrates the data and then classifies it using techniques like association rules, sequence patterns, and clustering. This extracts useful patterns and relationships to provide targeted information to users, helping e-businesses better understand customer behavior and improve their services. The framework is intended to help manage big data problems by converting complex data into simpler, more usable formats.
The World Wide Web (Web) is a popular and interactive medium to disseminate information today.
The Web is huge, diverse, and dynamic and thus raises the scalability, multi-media data, and temporal issues respectively.
The document discusses using machine learning models for web content mining and news article classification. Specifically, it proposes using a support vector machine (SVM) model with features extracted from the document object model (DOM) tree to classify news articles into categories like title, date, body text, and noise. The SVM model is trained on a manually labeled dataset and can handle the nonlinear and complex patterns in the data better than rule-based models. The preprocessing step prunes noisy leaf nodes from the DOM tree before feature extraction and model training are performed to classify the remaining leaf nodes.
The document describes a proposed two-stage smart web spider framework for efficiently harvesting data from the deep web. In the first stage, the smart web spider performs site-based searching for central pages using search engines to locate relevant sites while avoiding visiting a large number of pages. In the second stage, the spider performs fast in-site searching by prioritizing relevant links within sites. The goal is to improve the efficiency and coverage of deep web crawling compared to existing approaches. The proposed approach aims to balance wide coverage and efficient crawling to index more of the deep web, which contains a vast amount of valuable information not accessible by typical search engines.

4. Data Records Extraction:
Data record extraction aims to discover the
boundary of data records and extract them from the
deep Web pages. An ideal record extractor should
achieve the following:
1) all data records in the data region are extracted
and
2) for each extracted data record, no data item is
missed and no incorrect data item is included.
Instead of extracting data records from the deep
Web page directly, we first locate the data region,
and then, extract data records from the data region.
PF1 and PF2 indicate that the data records are the
primary content on the deep Web pages and the
data region is centrally located on these pages. The
data region corresponds to a block in the Visual
Block tree. We locate the data region by finding the
block that satisfies the two position features. Each
feature can be considered as a rule or a
requirement. The first rule can be applied directly,
while the second rule can be represented by
(areab/areapage) > Tregion, where areab is the area
of block b, areapage is the area of the whole deep
Web page, and Tregion is a threshold. The
threshold is trained from sample deep Web pages.
If more than one block satisfies both rules, we
select the block with the smallest area. Though very
simple, this method can find the data region in the
Visual Block tree accurately and efficiently.
Each data record corresponds to one or more sub Noise blocks may appear in the data region

record 3), and the dashed boxes are the boundaries
of data records. Data record extraction is to
discover the boundary of data records based on the
LF and AF features. That is, we attempt to
determine which blocks belong to the same data
record.
We achieve this in the following three
phases:
1. Phase 1: Filter out some noise blocks.
2.Phase 2: Cluster the remaining blocks by
computing their appearance similarity.
3.Phase 3: Discover data record boundary by
regrouping blocks.

Vol. 2, Issue 5, September- October 2012, pp.632-640
There are three types of data items in data records:
mandatory data items, optional data items, and
static data items. We extract all three types of data
items. Note that static data items are often
annotations to data and are useful for future
applications, such as Web data annotation. And
even that data item extraction is different from data
record extraction; the former focuses on the leaf
nodes of the Visual Block tree, while the latter
focuses on the child blocks of the data region in the
Visual Block tree.
5.1 Data Record Segmentation
AF3 indicates that composite data items
cannot be segmented any more in the Visual Block
tree. So, given a data record, we can collect its leaf
nodes in the Visual Block tree in left to right order
to carry out data record segmentation. Each
composite data item also corresponds to a leaf
node. We can treat it as a regular data item initially,
and then, segment it into the real data items with
the heuristic rules mentioned in AF3 after the initial
data item alignment.
5.2 Data Item Alignment
CF1 indicates that we cannot align data
items directly due to the existence of optional data
items. It is natural for data records to miss some
data items in some domains. Every data record has
been turned into a sequence of data items through
data record segmentation. Data item alignment
focuses on the problem of how to align the data
items of the same semantic together and also keep
the order of the data items in each data record. In
the following, we first define visual matching of
data items, and then, propose an algorithm for data
item alignment.
5. Data Item Extraction:
A data record can be regarded as the description of
its corresponding object, which consists of a group
of data items and some static template texts. In real
applications, these extracted structured data records
are stored (often in relational tables) at data item
level and the data items of the same semantic must
be placed under the same column.

item23 are matched into two clusters C1 = {item21;

further decide which cluster should form the next

which means that item42 is the third of the

can match item31 and item33, and the position
value 1 is logged. Because 1 is smaller than 2, the
data items in C1 should be ahead of the data items
in C2 and form the next column by inserting the
blank item into other records at the current
positions. The remaining data items can be aligned
in the same way (Figs. 10c and 10d).
6. Visual Wrapper Generation:
ViDE has two components: ViDRE and
ViDIE. There are two problems with them. First,
the complex extraction processes are too slow in
supporting real-time applications. Second, the
extraction processes would fail if there is only one
data record on the page. Since all deep Web pages
from the same Web database share the same visual
template, once the data records and data items on a
deep Web page have been extracted, we can use
these extracted data records and data items to
generate the extraction wrapper for the Web
database so that new deep Web pages from the
same Web database can be processed using the
wrappers quickly without reapplying the entire
extraction process. Our wrappers include data
record wrapper and data item wrapper. They are the

contrast, we mainly use the visual information to
generate our wrappers.
6.1 Vision-Based Data Record Wrapper
Given a deep Web page, vision-based data
record wrapper first locates the data region in the
Visual Block tree, and then, extracts the data
