The web is an ocean of information containing more than 10 billion web pages, wherein 90% of them are in non-structured or semi-structured formats. The information absolutely valuable for enterprises or individuals is just lying in this worldwide ocean of the Internet, and how to extract them has become one of the most imperative tasks confronting the research institutions that are engaging the important topics of Information Retrieval, Data Mining, Knowledge Management and Competitive Intelligence etc

The Mining System crawls for information each day and is capable of automatically and accurately extracting valuable data for you from the web pages with options to exclude redundant data such as page headers and footers

The mining system has a multi layered structure and a loosely coupled module design comprising many sub-systems. The system can extract designated information in big volume from the web, and integrate them into specified relational databases, converting the unstructured data into information with semantic tagging based on the user requirements such as competitors advertisements on the net, monthly industry performance, user sentiments in blogs and other.

The team is working to integrate smart agents into the crawler with Natural Language features with the current experiment working towards integrating Bayesian methods to the crawler

A database access layer is enables integration of any relational database, such as MS SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, etc. and the data can be exported into various formats such as XML, CVS, HTML, Excel

Gbox proprietary scripts help clients track visitors and retrieve information. The script is integrated, onto the client pages and the hidden pixel codes will track information, based on the specification..

This method has decisive benefits compared with other analyses that depend on server-based data. Using the pixel-code method, data is captured via the user's browser, which gives a significantly more accurate picture of the visitor. With this, it is possible to measure clicks, establish whether these are returning visitors, monitor actions within an application and much more. This data is saved in an SQL database and can be used later for any form of analysis.

The script is specific to each website. It delivers information about visitor behaviour relative to a particular website. In other words, the tracking code (the individual 'pixel-code') is intended for a specific website. If you are operating several websites, the pixel-code must always be adjusted accordingly, as otherwise incorrect results may be obtained. Of course, it may be that you want to analyse several different websites using the same pixel-code. In this case, you will have to track the page using an unique identifier.

The script is different for non-Flash-based websites and Flash-based websites. Our Counter finds application in tracking downloads, Paypal, Ebay transactions and integrating with content systems
