Abstract:
This paper describes a system capable of measuring the type of pages in the wild WEB. The system uses as theoretical background the capture – recapture methodology, which is mainly used for statistical purposes in other scientific areas. The problem addressed may be compared to the context of capture – recapture experiments used in wildlife biological studies. The novelty in the proposed method stands in the fact that the experiment takes place in the wild WEB and instead of animal species, the measurements concern several types of WEB pages.
