IMPROVING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF FOCUS CRAWLING USING GENETIC ALGORITHM
Keywords:
Crawling, focused crawling, Genetic Algorithm, web crawler , relevancyAbstract
As information has been increasing rapidly, it is very difficult to get information as per the user satisfaction.
A focused crawler is a web crawler which gives relevant pages according to users query.Genetic Algorithms (GA) are
optimization algorithms inspired by the Darwin's theory of natural evolution and survival of fittest. GA are robust,
efficient and optimized methods that are used in getting solutions to number of search and optimization problems. In this
paper, we use a genetic algorithm with focused crawling for improving the accuracy of similarity measure.
