Abstract

An automatic discovery method that discovers frequent access routines for unique clients from web access log files is presented. Proposed algorithm develops novel techniques to extract the sets of all predictive access sequences from semi-structured web access logs. Important user access patterns are manifested through the frequent traversal paths, thus helping understand user surfing behaviors. The predictive access routines discovered by AllFreSeq are also useful for understanding and improving web-site domain tree.
