which clustering algorithm to use

[al pacino]

Hi all,

which is the better suited clustering(data mining )algorithm to use for

web server log file mining.

i am using python to parse and clean the log file and using oracle to
save the fields.
i will be using c++(all this on apache+ winxp) to implement the algo.
itself.

thanks
siddharth

Try comp.infosystems.www.* family of newsgroups. When you have a C++
_language_ question, come back and ask it.

Why would he want to? I'm surprised "Al Pacino" didn't repsond with:
"Say hallo to ma' leetle fra-end."

#include <iostream>
// gawd forbid you would use namespace std; in an 8 line example
// program
using std::cout;

int VPartyInvitations()
{
// function ALWAYS returns zero
return 0;
}

int main()
{

cout << "How many party invites has V had in last ten years: "
<< VPartyInvitations();

return 0;
}

I suggest asking over in comp.ai.neural-nets, but you'll need to be
more specific about what you're trying to accomplish.

thanks predictor,

actually i want to apply clustering algorithm to web server log file,
so as to genrate interesting pattersn(as our instructor calls it)

now is it that any alogorithm will be able to mine knowledge

say for example the surfing pattern most followed is pageA-> page B etc

ps: you have got really impressive resume !
