“…It uses domain classification technique for web page retrieval based on user query. Information extraction from deep web using Repetitive Subject Pattern [36] is based on the hypothesis that information in web page is about a subject item and repetitive pattern around the subject items can be used to identify boundary. The limitation of this approach that it cannot be used for detail pages having a single subject item.…”

Abstract-WWW is a huge repository of information and the amount of information available on the web is growing day by day in an exponential manner. End users make use of search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bingo etc. for retrieving information. Search engines use web crawlers or spiders which crawl through a sequence of web pages in order to locate the relevant pages and provide a set of links ordered by relevancy. Those indexed web pages are part of surface web. Getting data from deep web requires form submission and is not performed by search engines. Data analytics and data mining applications depend on data from deep web pages and automatic extraction of data from deep web is cumbersome due to diverse structure of web pages. In the proposed work, a heuristic algorithm for automatic navigation and information extraction from journal's home page has been devised. The algorithm is applied to many publishers website such as Nature, Elsevier, BMJ, Wiley etc. and the experimental results show that the heuristic technique provides promising results with respect to precision and recall values.

“…(STEM [11] can also detect the data records from multiple pages.) We roughly divide these approaches into two groups: HTMLbased approaches [5], [7], [10], [11], [13], [15] and visionbased approaches [3], [4], [8], [12], [19], [22]. Our method named LTDE is a vision-based method, thus, more detailed about vision-based approaches will be discussed in this section.…”

SUMMARYContent extraction from deep Web pages has received great attention in recent years. However, the increasingly complicated HTML structure of Web documents makes it more difficult to recognize the data records by only analyzing the HTML source code. In this paper, we propose a method named LTDE to extract data records from a deep Web page. Instead of analyzing the HTML source code, LTDE utilizes the visual features of data records in deep Web pages. A Web page is considered as a finite set of visual blocks. The data records are the visual blocks that have similar layout. We also propose a pattern recognizing method named layout tree to cluster the similar layout visual blocks. The weight of all clusters is calculated, and the visual blocks in the cluster that has the highest weight are chosen as the data records to be extracted. The experiment results show that LTDE has higher effectiveness and better robustness for Web data extraction compared to previous works.

“…Many of the developed approaches aim to detect the schema of a web site which can be used with the generated wrapper for data extraction. Examples of these wrapper induction systems are EXLAG [1], FiVaTech [3], RoadRunner [4], Dela [5], DEPTA [6], ViPER [7], and others [8][9][10]. FiVaTech, EXLAG and RoadRunner are designed to solve the page-level extraction task, while DeLa, DEPTA, and ViPER are designed for the record-level extraction task.…”

Generating Web site schema is a core step for value-added services on the web such as comparative shopping and information integration systems. Several approaches have been developed to detect this schema. For a real web site, due to the complexity of the site schema, post process of this schema such as labeling the schema types, comparing among different schema types and generating an extractor to extract instances of a schema type is a challenge. In this paper, a new tree structured called schema-type semantic model is proposed as a classifier for a schema type. Given some instances of a schema type, HTML tags contents, DOM trees structural information and visual information of these instances are exploited for the classifier construction. Using multivariate normal distribution, the classifier can be used to compare between two different schema types; i.e., the classifier can be used for schema mapping which is a core step of information integration. Also, the suggested classifier can be used to detect and extract instances of a schema type; i.e., it can be used as an extractor for web data extraction systems. Furthermore, the classifier can be used to improve the performance of the schema generated by web data extraction systems; i.e., the classifier can be used to get, as much as possible, a perfect schema. The experiments show an encourage result with the schemas of the test web sites (a data set of 40 web sites).
