Abstract(in English) It is becoming increasingly difficult to find desired information from the World Wide Web (WWW) due to its rapid growth, and especially, to find web pages belonging to a certain category. For example, it is difficult for tourists to search for official accommodation websites such as hotels and pensions in the area that they will visit. Existing search engines are not suitable for this purpose because these search engines utilize some keywords to extract the information, and accommodation websites do not always contain the most common words. In this paper, we develop an automatic collection system that can extract some accommodation websites in a certain region and detect whether a website is an official one. Our main idea is the utilization of telephone numbers and link-structure analysis. We have applied our proposed system to Hokkaido local accommodation websites in some areas, although the proposed system can also be applied to other objects by changing the extraction rule. This is the first step of our trial to make a dynamic Internet Directory.
