Description
Data Science is the fastest growing job across the globe and is predicted to create 11.5 million jobs by 2026, so job seekers with this skill set have a lot of opportunities. One of the most sought areas in the field of Data Science is mining information from the web. If you are an aspiring Data Scientist looking to learn different Web mining techniques, then this book is for you.
This book starts by covering the key concepts of Web mining and its taxonomy. It then explores the basics of Web scraping, its uses and components followed by topics like legal aspects related to scraping, data extraction and pre-processing, scraping dynamic websites, and CAPTCHA. The book also introduces you to the concept of Opinion mining and Web structure mining. Furthermore, it covers Web graph mining, Web information extraction, Web search and hyperlinks, Hyperlink Induced Topic Search (HITS) search, and partitioning algorithms that are used for Web mining.
The idea of writing this book came when we were doing some research using Web Mining. We found it very difficult to get one single book, that helped us understand the fundamentals along with its implementations. Also, most of the books assumed that the readers have prior knowledge of Python. This book starts with the fundamentals of web mining and Python so that even beginners can follow the subject. Before inviting the readers to go through the content of this book, we would like to take an opportunity in this preface to present the readers with an overall roadmap of the book. The proposed book on “Web mining using Python” is based on the Concept and Applications of mining information from the web, which is the most sought area in the field of Data Science.
By the end of the book, you will master the art of data extraction using Python.
What you will learn
- Learn how to scrape data from any website with Python.
- Get familiar with the concepts of Opinion Mining and Sentiment Analysis.
- Use Web structure mining to discover structure information from the web.
Who this book is for
The book is for anyone who wants to learn Web mining. Aspiring Data Scientists, Data Engineers, and Data Analysts who want to master Web mining will find this book very helpful.
