Abstract

The focused crawler downloads web pages related to the given topic from the Internet. In many research studies, most of focused crawler predict the priority values of unvisited hyperlinks by integrating the topic similarities based on the text similarity model and equivalent weighted factors based on the manual method. However, in these focused crawlers, there are flaws in the text similarity models, and weighted factors are arbitrarily determined for calculating priorities of unvisited URLs. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a semantic and intelligent focused crawler based on the Semantic Vector Space Model (SVSM) and the Membrane Computing Optimization Algorithm (MCOA). Firstly, the SVSM method is used to calculate topic similarities between texts and the given topic. Secondly, the MCOA method is used to optimize four weighted factors based on the evolution rules and the communication rule. Finally, this proposed focused crawler predicts the priority of each unvisited hyperlink by integrating the topic similarities of four texts and the optimal four weighted factors. The experiment results indicate that the proposed SVSM-MCOA Crawler improve the evaluation indicators compared with the other four focused crawlers. In conclusion, the proposed SVSM and MCOA method promotes the focused crawler to have semantic understanding and intelligent learning ability.
