An Effective Web Mining Algorithm using Link Analysis
Mohamed-K Hussein, Mohamed H. Mousa · 2010
Abstract--The search engines, such as Google, Yahoo and Bing, provide a powerful information retrieval on the Web. A number of Web Mining algorithms, such as PageRank, Weighted PageRank and HITS, are commonly used to categorize and rank the search results. The motive behind this paper is to present and analyze the currently important algorithms for ranking of web pages such as PageRank and Weighted PageRank and HITS. Second, this paper proses a ranking algorithm based on Weighted PageRank and the existing profile of the user to yield more accurate search results. Simulation Program is developed for the prosed algorithm. The experimental results shows that the proposed algorithm provides acceptable results compared to the Weighted PageRank algorithms. queries every day. So Web mining and ranking mechanism becomes very important for effective information retrieval. The general architecture [3] of a search engine is shown in
