This paper proposes a method and empirical pieces of evidence to investigate the claim commonly made that proxy services used by web scraping bots have millions of residential IPs at their disposal. Using a real-world setup, we have had access to the logs of close to 20 heavily targeted websites and have carried out an experiment over a two

... are usually just a "HTTP forwarding" service and redirect traffic to somewhere else (internal domains, other servers, etc) [8]."Hosting" category specifies if the IP belongs to hosting providers. Table 3 shows that a couple of IPs have been categorized as involved in suspicious activities but not as many as expected. However, the results obtained with IPQualityScore [9] are much more aligned with our expectations. ...Similar publications

Airline websites are the victims of unauthorised online travel agencies and aggregators that use armies of bots to scrape prices and flight information. These so-called Advanced Persistent Bots (APBs) are highly sophisticated. On top of the valuable information taken away, these huge quantities of requests consume a very substantial amount of resou...
Hyperspectral sensors acquire spectral responses from objects with a large number of narrow spectral bands. The large volume of data may be costly in terms of storage and computational requirements. In addition, hyperspectral data are often information-wise redundant. Band selection intends to overcome these limitations by selecting a small subset...
