Abstract
With the expansion of the Internet, the amount of information available is continuously reaching higher growth rates. This fact leads to the necessity of developing new advanced tools to collect and filter information that meets users’ preferences. This paper presents an agent that uses automatic indexing, concept space generation, and a Hopfield artificial neural network to filter web pages according to users’ interests. The experiments that were conducted to evaluate the agent show that it has very satisfactory precision and coverage rates.
