Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 資訊工程研究所 === 96 === Information search is the key activity for many users on the Web. Although search engines are very useful and powerful nowadays, there are also many drawbacks faced by them. Moreover, many information needs are hard to express using keyword-based queries. In this paper, we apply a method to solve composite information needs by building a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) for predicting the most likely path to the target information. We want to use the concept of the focused crawling to trace down a Web site for specific information. The experiment shows that the results is good for the admission information and the accepted papers.
