Innovations in Web Intelligence
Gastón L’Huillier, Juan D. Velásquez, and Lakhmi C. Jain
Abstract The information footprints of a rapidly increasing influx of Internet users
present us with an immense source of information that ultimately contributes to
the construction of innovative web technology suitable for the future generations.
Likewise, Web Intelligence has been presented as the usage of advanced techniques
in Artificial Intelligence and Information Technology for the purpose of exploring,
analysing, and extracting knowledge from Web data. In this chapter, the use of Web
Intelligence is discussed together with ways in which a wide range of research is
benefiting this area for the long-term. Also the books’ purpose and structure are
introduced, together with all resources used in its construction.
1.1 Introduction
Web Intelligence has been considered during the last decade as one of the leading
areas of research and development in modern science. Ever since the Web was invented by Tim Berners-Lee [3], data about human behaviour and activities has been
gathered at different levels. This is specially in terms of their interests when they are
arranged to follow a link, the buyers of a specific product, or the way in which they
feel about a specific topic in a virtual community. This behaviour has left a footprint that must be considered for further analysis. This information, keeps feeding
the Web constantly and which enable us to explore the the dynamics of our society,
future trends in various aspects of our every-days life, and other questions which are
as yet beyond our imagination.

The rapid growth of the World Wide Web, the assembly of large scale volumes
of web data, and ever exponentially increasing applications has lead to the development of ever smarter approaches to extract patterns and build knowledge with
the aide of artificial intelligence techniques. These techniques have been used, together with information technology, in a wide range of applications. This is where
semantics, social network analysis, web structure, content, usage, and other aspects
have already been and will increasingly keep being included in many application
domains.
To keep up-to-date in the research areas of Web Intelligence is fundamental to
further contribute towards the understanding of how the Web can improve to our everyday life. This is the goal of this book, which is to present advanced techniques in
Web Intelligence, show their main contributions, applications, and limitations. This
book can be considered as a compendium of today’s techniques that are likely to
continue in the development of independent research of areas. Together these represent what the Web Intelligence concept stand for that is; to explore the fundamental
roles and impacts of Artificial Intelligence and Information Technology for the next
generations of Web-empowered products, Systems, Services, and Activities1 .
This chapter is structured as follows: First, in section 1.2 a brief overview of
advanced techniques in Web Intelligence is presented, and different branches are
discussed. Second, in section 1.3, all chapters included in this book are introduced,
together with a discussion of their main characteristics. The summary of chapter 1.4.
Is given In section 1.5, the main resources considered in writing this book are listed.
1.2 An overview of the Advanced Techniques used in Web
Intelligence
Web Intelligence covers a wide area here artificial intelligence and information technology are integrated to enhance different web-based applications. Different techniques and technologies have been used by researchers and practitioners over the
years. Concepts such as Web information repositories [25], Web user behaviour
analysis [20, 23], Web content [15, 21] and structure mining [16], social network
analysis [4], the semantic Web [17, 22]. In addition more general concepts such as
Knowledge Discovery from Databases [7] and Knowledge Representation [5] are
the key to understand the basics from which Web Intelligence has been assembled.
In terms of knowledge representation and storage, fields such as logic, ontology,
and computation are critical in order to support the basic structure evolving from a
Web of data to a Web of knowledge [24]. Furthermore, once knowledge is mined
from the web data, different standards, such as the Predictive Model Mark-up Language (PMML) [18], have been developed to store and manage the different patterns
extracted from the content. These repositories have been developed for use in Multidimensional Analysis architectures. This is where Extraction, Transformation, and

Loading from web-based resources, Data Web-house Meta-data Modelling, OLAP
queries, and its visualization have been extensively studied [19].
As part of the collection, pre-processing, and cleaning of data, several issues
on privacy and quality measures must be considered [24]. Different web mining
applications, such as Web User Behaviour, Content of Different Web Sites, and the
analysis of the web as a graph have been discussed in the areasof Web Intelligence,
Data Mining, Machine Learning, Information Retrieval, and Artificial Intelligence
communities in various conferences and journals (see section 1.5).
Applications oriented to the analysis of information preferences, web usability
and usefulness considerations such as helping the web user to find information have
been areas of intrust. They have found the centre of attention for web usage mining researchers [24]. Other applications, such as the identification of where, how,
and items which must be considered in a particular content of a given web site has
formed the focus for Web Content Mining researchers [6]. The structure, representation, and its analysis has been considered as part of Web structure mining [16] and
the information retrieval [2]. In previous applications, traditional supervised and
un-supervised machine learning algorithms [10, 14], and data quality, visualization,
characterization, analysis techniques have been developed for the Web Intelligence
Community [24].
In all of the latter applications, the original Web data is presented in appropriate formats that must be processed and represented in terms for the technique to be
used. In this context, Web logs, the Web-site contents, and the Hyperlink Structure
of the Web, have been considered as the main source of information. Privacy issues
on the sessionization process, such as using invasive tools to identify the users [24],
and social network analysis where the user’s contacts are exposed, have been the focus of further developments in privacy preserving data mining for Web Intelligence
applications [1, 26].
One of the most promising research and application areas in Web Intelligence
are the social networks and in web communities’ analysis [8, 12, 17]. First studies on web structure has led to different ranking algorithms and techniques that are
currently used in the analysis on how communities are formed. This includes the
HITS algorithm, where authorities and hubs are identified [13]. Nowadays the content is not exclusively reserved for expert web-masters. The content on the Web is
being developed by almost all of its users in web blogging, web forums, microblogging, virtual encyclopedias, social network applications. This enables the storage and generation of linked and structured information, that can be associated with
text messages and multimedia information such as pictures and videos. All of these
are currently being considered as a rich source of many research projects, where
techniques such as social network analysis, text mining, and web mining are used
together.
Finally, advances in Web Intelligence research are being focused on the enhancement of the semantic Web. The main objective is to provide a Web of descriptive
meaning. There are different key aspects of knowledge representation such as computational linguistics, and other related Computer Science areas which have contributed to its development [22, 27]. Several standards for meta-data processing

Gastón L’Huillier, Juan D. Velásquez, and Lakhmi C. Jain
such as the Resource Description Framework (RDF) [11], Web Ontology Language
(OWL) [9], and social network representations of RDF, such as Friend of a Friend
(FOAF) [8], have been proposed as contributions to semantics considerations in the
Web.
