Analyzing uniform resource locators

摘要

Methods for analyzing a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) and apparatus for performing such methods. The methods include parsing the URL into text segments and generating n-grams from the text segments. The methods further include generating annotations, each annotation corresponding to one of the n-grams and comprising a match value for its corresponding n-gram, a description of its match value, and a score. The methods still further include selecting a subset of the annotations.

1. A method of analyzing a Uniform Resource Locator (URL), comprising:
obtaining the URL from an Internet browser instantiated and displayed on a computer; and performing, by a processor:
parsing the URL into text segments;generating n-grams from the text segments of the URL;comparing the n-grams generated from the text segments of the URL to at least one knowledge base;generating annotations, each annotation corresponding to one of the n-grams generated from the text segments of the URL and comprising a match value for its corresponding n-gram determined from the comparison to the at least one knowledge base, a description of its match value from the at least one knowledge base, and a score indicating a relative confidence level that an association between the corresponding n-gram and the description of its match value is correct; andselecting a subset of the annotations.
