Cross-lingual Information Extraction from Web pages: the use of a general-purpose Text Engineering Platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present how the use of a general-purpose text engineering platform has facilitated the development of a cross-lingual information extraction system and its adaptation to new domains and languages. Our approach for crosslingual information extraction from the Web covers all the way from the identification of Web sites of interest, to the location of the domainspecific Web pages, to the extraction of specific information from the Web pages and its presentation to the end-user. This approach has been implemented in the context of the IST project CROSSMARC. The text engineering platform “Ellogon” offers functionalities that facilitated the development of core CROSSMARC components as well as their porting into new domains

متن کاملData Extraction using Content-Based Handles
In this paper, we present an approach and a visual tool, called HWrap (Handle Based Wrapper), for creating web wrappers to extract data records from web pages. In our approach, we mainly rely on the visible page content to identify data regions on a web page. In our extraction algorithm, we inspired by the way a human user scans the page content for specific data. In particular, we use text fea...
