Introduction

• Web clustering Engine organize search results by

topic this offering a complimentary view to the
flat ranked list returned by the conventional
search engines
 Why web clustering Engines ?

• Conventional engines are not much efficient in ambiguous

queries
• The search results returned by conventional search engines
on query will be mixed together in the list, irrelevant item
occurs.
• In this context of search result come into picture!
Main advantages of cluster hierarchy

• It makes for shortcuts to the items that relate to the

same meaning
• It allows better topic understanding
• It favors system artic exploration of search results.
Issues in implementation of clusters

• Short input description

• Meaningful labels
• Selection of similar measure
• Grouping of objects into clusters
• Computation efficiency
Architecture
Data centric clustering algorithm

• This system uses VSM for text representation and the

clustering technique used is agglomerative hierarchical
clustering (AHC).
• It has an initial clustering of collection of documents in set of
k clusters (scattering)
• At query time the users selection clusters of interested
(gather) and the system re-clustred those documents.
• This process repeats until a small cluster with relevant
documents is found.
 Conclusion

• Web clustering engines organize search results by topic

thus offering a complimentary view to the flat-ranked
list returned by conventional search engines.
• Due to lack of efficient methods of performance
evaluation of clustering engines they are not seeking the
attention of the people.
