Additional text
From the reviews:
“This volume presents a progression of ideas, starting with data gathering, extending through behavioral characterization and user modeling, and ending with applications. Extensive references to the research literature accompany each chapter, and a rather brief subject index concludes the volume. This book is suitable for researchers and graduate students looking for a survey of current trends in the modeling of web user behavior from the perspective of web data analysis or cognitive science.” (R. M. Malyankar, ACM Computing Reviews, February, 2013)
