Web pages now-a-days have different forms and types of content. When the web content is considered they are in the form of pictures, video, audio files and text files in different languages. The present study is aimed at this. The content can be multilingual and heterogeneous. The content of the web is considered as images. Statistical features of the images are extracted. The extracted features are presented to the FCM and subtractive clustering, with similarity metric being Euclidean distance. The accuracy is compared. © 2014 IEEE.

Internet and mobile computing have become a major societal force in that down-to-earth issues are being addressed and sorted out whether they relate to online shopping or securing driving information in unknown places. Here the major concern of communication is that the Web content should reach the user in a short period of time. So information extraction needs to be at a basic level and easier to implement without depending on any major software. The present study focuses on extraction of information from the available text and media-type data after it is converted into digital form. The approach uses the basic pixel map representation of data and converting them through numerical means, so that issues of language, text script and format do not pose problems. With the numerically converted data, key clusters similar to keywords used in any search method are developed and content is extracted through different approaches making it computation-intensive for easiness. One approach is that statistical features of the images are extracted from the pixel map of the image. The extracted features are presented to the fuzzy clustering algorithm. The similarity metric being Euclidean distance and the accuracy is compared and presented. The concept of ambiguity is introduced in the paper, by comparing objects like ‘computer,’ which have explicit content representation possible to an abstract subject like ‘soft-computing,’ where vagueness and ambiguity are possible in representation. With this as the objective, the approach used for content extraction is compared and how within certain bounds it could be possible to extract the content. © Springer India 2016.

Mining ambiguities using Pixel-Based content extraction

Web pages nowadays have different forms and types of content. When the Web content is considered, they are in the form of pictures, videos, audio files, and text files in different languages. The content can be multilingual, heterogeneous, and unstructured. The mining should be independent of the language and software. Statistical features of the images are extracted from the pixel map of the image. The extracted features are presented to the fuzzy clustering algorithm (FCM) and Gath–Geva algorithm. The similarity metric being Euclidean distance and Gaussian distance, respectively. The accuracy is compared and presented. © Springer India 2015.

Clustering for knowledgeable web mining

Heterogeneous clustering

Communication through web is becoming increasingly popular thanks to wireless and cellular networks. As this awareness spreads far and wide in different countries, significant complexities arise in terms of language and communication means for extracting information on the web. This is particularly true in India where more than fifteen officially recognized language texts and more variations in local dialect exist. An example is in Tamilnadu where Tamizh, native language with its own variations like Chennai, Madurai and Coimbatore dialects is combined effectively and easily with other languages Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam from nearby states and English and Hindi from global and national perspectives. So a web document here could be in any one of the languages or a mixture of words from different languages to avoid translation like 'computer' of English doesn't have translation in Tamizh. There are several aspects to this variational usage with language protagonists and communication engineers. But the complexity in the web document due to these variations does create difficulties in using conventional data mining approaches. The present study focuses attention on this, beginning from text variations to word and document. Typical characters which have similar usage like 'a' in English with those in Tamizh and Telugu are taken and their pixelmaps are mapped for similarity and contrasts. This is later extended to more complex characters like unknown sign in Telugu which is one character as compared to its English equivalent 'kO' making representations difficult. When one starts looking at words, complexity increases as 'temple' in English translated as 'unknown sign' in Telugu or 'mandiram' written in English. Similarities in pixel-maps are looked at and characteristics in terms of matrices are projected so that mining content when such words or letters are extracted in web document can be put in a probabilistic format with predictions based on correlations. Typical histograms highlighting these aspects are presented and later an experiment with a document page dealing with magnetism is used as model-l for predicting content. ©2010 IEEE.
