URL Navigation Page Generation via Composite Scoring and Category Segmentation

The patent changes the evaluation parameter from simple visit count to a composite score system that incorporates multiple factors: visit frequency, visit method weight, time recency, and category importance. This allows URLs visited only once or a few times to be identified as frequently visited if they meet the threshold in the composite scoring system, thereby resolving the contradiction between accuracy and information loss.

The patent creates a composite evaluation index by combining multiple parameters (visit count, visit method, time factor, category weight) into a single comprehensive scoring system. This composite approach enables the system to accurately identify frequently visited URLs even when individual parameters show low values, thus preventing information loss of occasionally visited but important URLs.

The patent segments the navigation list into category-based groups rather than a single flat ranking. URLs are first categorized, then ranked within each category, and finally presented as multiple organized groups. This segmentation allows the navigation page to maintain compactness while ensuring diverse category representation, as each category gets its own designated space in the navigation interface.

The patent introduces a categorical dimension to the navigation organization. Instead of a one-dimensional flat list ranked solely by frequency, the system creates a two-dimensional structure where URLs are organized by category first, then ranked within categories. This dimensional change enables both compact presentation and diverse category coverage simultaneously.

The patent transforms the single-parameter calculation (visit count) into a multi-parameter composite scoring system that includes visit frequency, visit method weight, time recency, and category importance. While this increases calculation complexity, the patent optimizes the computation by pre-calculating weights and using efficient scoring algorithms, thereby maintaining acceptable productivity while dramatically improving measurement precision and objectivity.

The patent creates a composite evaluation metric that combines multiple parameters into a unified scoring system. This composite approach allows the system to objectively identify frequently visited URLs by considering multiple dimensions of usage patterns, preventing the omission of important URLs that might be visited less frequently but are still significant to the user.
