Raisin Bread Intelligent agents are ninety-nine percent computer science and one percent AI (Etzioni 1990). 에이전트의 정의 An agent is a computer system, situated in some environment, that is capable of flexible autonomous action in order to meet its design objectives (Wooldridge and Jennings 1995). ㆍsituatedness: the agent receives sensory input from its environment and can perform actions which change the environment in some way ㆍautonomy: the system is able to act without the direct intervention of humans and has control over its own actions and internal state. ㆍflexible: responsive, pro-active, social(omitted)

Nowdays, with the explosive growth of the web information, web users Increase requests of systems which collect and analyze web pages that are relevant. The systems which were develop to solve the request were used clustering methods to improve the duality of information. Clustering is defining inter relationship of unordered data and grouping data systematically. The systems using clustering provide the grouped information to the users. So, they understand the information efficiently. We proposed a hybrid clustering method to cluster a large quantity of data efficiently. By that method, We generate initial clusters using COBWEB Algorithm and refine them using Ezioni Algorithm. This paper adds two ideas in prior hybrid clustering method to increment accuracy and efficiency of clusters. Firstly, we propose the clustering method considering weight of attributes of data. Second, we redefine evaluation functions which generate initial clusters to increase efficiency in clustering. Clustering method proposed in this paper processes a large quantity of data and diminish of dependancy on sequence of input of data. So the clusters are useful to make user profiles in high quality. Ultimately, we will show that the proposed clustering method outperforms the pervious clustering method in the aspect of precision and execution speed.

웹 에이전트는 사용자가 웹을 브라우징하는 행위를 모니터하여 사용자의 관심 정보를 학습하고 사용자가 필요로 하는 웹 상의 정보를 자동 제공하는 지능형 시스템이다. 웹 에이전트가 사용자의 선호도를 학습하기 위해서는 귀납적 기계학습을 수행하는데, 이때 학습의 효율을 높이기 위해서는 사용자가 관심있어하는 문서들을 유사한 문서들로 클러스터링하여 학습 시스템에 제공하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 웹 에이전트의 학습 시스템에 입력되는 학습대상 문서들을 보다 정확하고 효율적으로 클러스터링하여 제공하기 위해서 Top-down 방식과 Bottom-up 방식을 통합 적용한 통합방식 문서 클러스터링과 초기 클러스터 생성을 위한 평가함수를 제시한다. Top-down 방식으로는 개념적 클러스터링 알고리즘인 COBWEB을 적용하고, Bottom-up 방식으로는 교차기반(Intersection-based) 클러스터링 방식인 Etzioni의 클러스터링 알고리즘을 적용하였다.
