Abstract: Consider the task of exploring the Web in order to find pages of a particular kind or on a particular topic. This task arises in the construction of search engines and Web knowledge bases. This paper argues that the creation of efficient web spiders is best framed and solved by reinforcement learning, a branch of machine learning that concerns itself with optimal sequential decision making.
