Although session identification is an important step in web log mining,the session identified by existing methods are not ac-curate.Toward session identification in web log mining,an access timeout-based improvement is carried out of session identification in web log mining.By calculating the average intervals dynamically among request records in the session,adjusting a threshold individually.Compared to the traditional method that defines a uniform threshold for all web pages experimentally,the approach presents can identify the long session more accurately.Then generating sets of candidate session is re-identified,which make the session more reasonable and effective.The quality of session identification is proved more efficiency by experiments.
