Clustering Techniques Utilized in Web Usage Mining

Abstract

Clustering is the process of grouping objects together in such a way that the objects belonging to the same group are similar and those belonging to different groups are dissimilar. Clustering technique can be used in many applications for example biological, financial applications and many more. One of these application types is Web clustering where different types of objects can be clustered into different groups for various purposes. This paper deals with the different aspects of Web data mining and provides an overview about the various techniques used in this field.
