Computational Web Intelligence

- The book completely introduces the intelligent Web techniques based on soft computing, granular computing, computational intelligence, and Web technology for different intelligent Web applications - The first book to introduce the novel intelligent Web theory (computational Web intelligence) with many potential intelligent Web applications - The book introduces CWI techniques for currently hot and important applications such as Web security, Internet security, bioinformatics, Web search engines, Web mining, e-commerce, intelligent Web agents, etc.

This research volume focuses on analyzing the web user browsing behaviour and preferences in traditional web-based environments, social networks and web 2.0 applications, by using advanced techniques in data acquisition, data processing, pattern extraction and cognitive science for modeling the human actions. The book is directed to graduate students, researchers/scientists and engineers interested in updating their knowledge with the recent trends in web user analysis, for developing the next generation of web-based systems and applications.

This review volume introduces the novel intelligent Web theory calledcomputational Web intelligence (CWI) based on computationalintelligence (CI) and Web technology (WT). It takes an in-depth lookat hybrid Web intelligence (HWI), which is based on artificialbiological and computational intelligence with Web technology and isused to build hybrid intelligent Web systems that serve wired andwireless users more efficiently.

This review volume introduces the novel intelligent Web theory called computational Web intelligence (CWI) based on computational intelligence (CI) and Web technology (WT). It takes an in-depth look at hybrid Web intelligence (HWI), which is based on artificial biological and computational intelligence with Web technology and is used to build hybrid intelligent Web systems that serve wired and wireless users more efficiently. The basic principles of CWI and various e-applications of CWI and HWI are discussed. For completeness, six major CWI techniques — fuzzy Web intelligence, neural Web intelligence, evolutionary Web intelligence, granular Web intelligence, rough Web Intelligence and probabilistic Web intelligence — are described. With the huge potential for intelligent e-business applications of CWI and HWI, these techniques represent the future of intelligent Web applications.
