We give a new view on building content clusters from page pair models. We measure the heuristic importance within every two pages by computing the distance of their accessed positions in usage sessions. We also compare our page pair models with the classical pair models used in information theories and natural language processing, and give different evaluation methods to build the reasonable content communities. And we finally interpret the advantages and disadvantages of our models from detailed experiment results

In this article, we discuss the notions of experts and expertise in resource discovery in the context of collaborative tagging systems. We propose that the level of expertise of a user with respect to a particular topic is mainly determined by two factors. First, an expert should possess a high-quality collection of resources, while the quality of a Web resource in turn depends on the expertise of the users who have assigned tags to it, forming a mutual reinforcement relationship. Second, an expert should be one who tends to identify interesting or useful resources before other users discover them, thus bringing these resources to the attention of the community of users. We propose a graph-based algorithm, SPEAR (spamming-resistant expertise analysis and ranking), which implements the above ideas for ranking users in a folksonomy. Our experiments show that our assumptions on expertise in resource discovery, and SPEAR as an implementation of these ideas, allow us to promote experts and demote spammers at the same time, with performance significantly better than the original hypertext-induced topic search algorithm and simple statistical measures currently used in most collaborative tagging systems.
Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) have been widely deployed in practice for detecting malicious behavior on network communication and hosts. False-positive alerts are a popular problem for most IDS approaches. The solution to address this problem is to enhance the detection process by correlation and clustering of alerts. To meet the practical requirements, this process needs to be finished fast, which is a challenging task as the amount of alerts in large-scale IDS deployments is significantly high. We identifytextitdata storage and processing algorithms to be the most important factors influencing the performance of clustering and correlation. We propose and implement a highly efficient alert correlation platform. For storage, a column-based database, an In-Memory alert storage, and memory-based index tables lead to significant improvements of the performance. For processing, algorithms are designed and implemented which are optimized for In-Memory databases, e.g. an attack graph-based correlation algorithm. The platform can be distributed over multiple processing units to share memory and processing power. A standardized interface is designed to provide a unified view of result reports for end users. The efficiency of the platform is tested by practical experiments with several alert storage approaches, multiple algorithms, as well as a local and a distributed deployment.
