A METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR IDENTIFYING MACHINE-GENERATED TEXTUAL IDENTIFIERS

摘要

Methods and systems provide tracking or logging requests to resolve non-existent textual identifiers and classifying the textual identifier into a predefined set of taxonomical categories to support the detection of machine generated textual identifiers. Detection includes calculating a measure of probability based on the analysis and classification of prior textual identifier requests from a set of requests for a specific textual identifier.
