Web Mining Applications in E-commerce and E-services

A Book of Studies in Computational Intelligence Book Series

 

  

Overview:

Web mining is a technique that applies data mining techniques to analyse different sources of data in the web (such as web usage data, web content data, and web structural data). With the rapidly growth of World Wide Web, it therefore becomes a very hot and popular topic in web research area. E-commerce and E-services are claimed could be killer applications for web mining, and web mining now also plays an important role for E-commerce website and E-services to understand how their websites and services are used and to provide better services for their customers and users.

Recently, many researches are focusing on developing new web mining techniques and algorithms, or devoting to improve traditional mining techniques. However, it is meaningless, if these techniques and algorithms have not been applied in real application environment. Therefore, it could be an important time to shift the research focus to application area, such as E-commerce and E-services
