Web Mining

Abstract

This paper will look closer to different implementations on web mining and the importance of filtering out calls made from robots to get knowledge about the actual human usage of a website. This is to find patterns between different web pages and create more customized and accessible web pages to users, which in turn creates more traffic and trade to the website. We will address some common methods to find and eliminate the web usage made from robots while keeping browsing data made from human users intact. This paper will primarily focus on the field of web usage mining, which is a direct need from the growth of the World Wide Web.
