METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR IDENTIFYING REQUESTORS OF MACHINE-GENERATED REQUESTS TO RESOLVE A TEXTUAL IDENTIFIER

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 requestors of machine generated requests to resolve textual identifiers. Detection includes calculating a measure of probability based on the analysis and classification of prior textual identifier requests from a requestor.
