Focused crawling by exploiting anchor text using decision tree
Focused crawlers are considered as a promising way to tackle the scalability problem of topic-oriented or personalized search engines. To design a focused crawler, the choice of strategy for prioritizing unvisited URLs is crucial. In this paper, we propose a method using a decision tree on anchor texts of hyperlinks. We conducted experiments on the real data sets of four Japanese universities and verified our approach. Categories and Subject Descriptors H.3.3 [Information Storage and Retrieval]: Information Search and Retrieval--search process; I.2.8 [Artificial Intelligence]: Problem Solving, Control Methods, and Search-graph and tree search strategies General Terms Algorithms, Experimentation, Performance Keywords Focused Crawling, Anchor Text, Decision Tree Learning, Shortest Path
