A Comparative Study of Navigation Techniques and Information Retrieval Algorithms for Web Mining

A comparative study of ability of the proposed novel image retrieval algorithms is performed to provide automated object classification invariant of rotation, translation, and scaling. Simple cosine similarity coefficient methods are analyzed. Considering applied cosine similarity coefficient methods, the two following approaches were tested and compared: the processing of the whole image and the processing of the image that contains edges extracted by the application of the Sobel edge detector. Numerical experiments on a real database sets indicate feasibility of the presented approach as an automated object classification tool without special image pre-processing.

The user of dynamic social network does not require irrelevant and vast amount of information during a search. A need of an intelligent search is required to get the reduced, filtered and relevant information that is achieved using an intelligent information retrieval and web mining. In this paper, identification and description of facts related to needs of an intelligent search in dynamic social network has been done by the authors after the deep and thorough study conducted on several journal and conference papers that are scattered on different electronic databases globally. The usage of intelligent agent for effective information retrieval from the social network site is a very emerging area and it will help the users to find the relevant and concerned information quickly and efficiently. The findings of the authors will help researchers and scholars who are already working in this area to get the relevant information in the direction of future research.

Collaborative Information Retrieval

This chapter aims to master web mining and Information Retrieval (IR) in the digital age, thus describing the overviews of web mining and web usage mining; the significance of web mining in the digital age; the overview of IR; the concept of Collaborative Information Retrieval (CIR); the evaluation of IR systems; and the significance of IR in the digital age. Web mining can contribute to the increase in profits by selling more products and by minimizing costs. Web mining is the application of data mining techniques to discover the interesting patterns from web data in order to better serve the needs of web-based multifaceted applications. Mining web data can improve the personalization, create the selling opportunities, and lead to more profitable relationships with customers in global business. Web mining techniques can be applied with the effective analysis of the clearly understood business needs and requirements. Web mining builds the detailed customer profiles based on the transactional data. Web mining is used to create the personalized search engines which can recognize the individuals' search queries by analyzing and profiling the web user's search behavior. IR is the process of obtaining relevant information from a collection of informational resources. IR has considerably changed with the expansion of the Internet and the advent of modern and inexpensive graphical user interfaces and mass storage devices. The effective IR system, including an active indexing system, not only decreases the chances that information will be misfiled but also expedites the retrieval of information. Regarding IR utilization, the resulting time-saving benefit increases office efficiency and productivity while decreasing stress and anxiety. Most IR systems provide the advanced searching capabilities that allow users to create the sophisticated queries. The chapter argues that applying web mining and IR has the potential to enhance organizational performance and reach strategic goals in the digital age.
