Review: Web Mining Research: A Survey

Web Mining Research: A Survey

Paper is an exhaustive survey of Web Mining techniques
Interesting points/concepts:

1. Web Mining categories:
• Web Content Mining (focus of my review)
  
• Web Structure Mining
• Web Usage Mining
  
2. Table on Pg 5 - for each of the above techniques describes the options for Data Representation, Methods and Application Categories
   
3. As per cited research - the representation (bag of words, phrased based and hypernym) had no significant effect on performance
4. Table 3 on Pg 6 - maps authors to techniques used and the application of the techniques
• Applications, techniques are quite varied

Comment - Paper has a very rich set of references.
