Variable tag cloud: Automatic dynamic information presentation from Thai websites

This paper proposes a Variable Tag Cloud as a form of automatic dynamic information presentation for Thai websites. The Variable Tag Cloud offers flexibility to the users since they can dynamically change the number of keywords being displayed. This approach aims to address the information overload issue by providing the Variable Tag Cloud as an overview of the key content on a webpage to the users so that they can assess whether the information meets their needs. Description of a framework of the Variable Tag Cloud is provided together with example results to demonstrate the proposed approach. From the observation, the Variable Tag Cloud approach is able to provide overviews of web pages for use by the viewers.
