Abstract
A method for network resource classification and identifying user interests based on the classification. The method uses a provided hierarchy of categories for classifying network resources, wherein each category is assigned a text item describing the category and the method includes obtaining resource description data collections corresponding to the network resources, and generating, using a semantic correlation algorithm, a category score vector of a network resource by comparing the resource description data collection to the text item assigned to each category in the hierarchy of categories, wherein the category score vector comprises a category score for each category in the hierarchy of categories, wherein the category score is determined based on at least a semantic correlation measure between the resource description data collection and the text item assigned to a corresponding category, wherein the plurality of network resources are classified based at least on the category score.
