The Web has continued to grow up since its inception in volume of information, in the complexity of its topology, as well as in its diversity of content and services. This phenomenon was transformed the web in spite of his young age to an obscure media to take useful information. Today, they are billions of HTML documents, images and other media files on the Internet. Taking into account the wi...

The paper addresses a problem of extraction of semantic information from Czech texts from the Web. The method described in this paper exploits existing linguistic tools created originally for a syntactically annotated corpus, Prague Dependency Treebank (PDT 2.0). We are working on development of a system which captures text of web-pages, annotates it linguistically by linguistic tools, extracts...

In this paper we present preliminary results for information extraction (IE) performed over a set of HTML documents using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs). In our experiments, we restrict ourselves to the domain of bike products sold on the Internet. The information to be extracted consists of bike model attributes and details regarding the company’s offer. We experiment with three approaches utilis...

WWW Information Collection, Collaging and Programming (Wiccap) system is a software system for the generation of logical views of web resources, and the extraction of desired information in the form of a structured document. It is designed to enable people to obtain information of interest in a simple and effective manner as well as to enable information from the WWW accessible to applications ...

because Web search and navigation are still underdeveloped. Although Web publishing is increasingly successful, it still requires too much time and effort to precisely locate specific information. This process is often tied to traditional solutions developed outside the Web scenario—for example, information retrieval (IR) models over hypertext rather than simple text documents. Moreover, even d...

We describe an approach to classifying images found on the WWW for the purpose of information extraction (IE). Among features used for classification are image sizes, colour histograms, and the similarity of the classified image’s content to images in a training collection. Our content similarity metric is based on the latent semantic index. Results are presented on a collection of 1624 image o...

It is often desirable to extract structured information from raw web pages for better information browsing, query answering, and pattern mining. Many such Information Extraction (IE) technologies are costly and applying them at the web-scale is impractical. In this paper, we propose a novel prioritization approach where candidate pages from the corpus are ordered according to their expected con...

The Word Wide Web has become one of the most important information repositories. However, information in web pages is free from standards in presentation and lacks being organized in a good format. It is a challenging work to extract appropriate and useful information from Web pages. Currently, many web extraction systems called web wrappers, either semi-automatic or fully-automatic, have been ...

Extraction of information from web is a challenging task. The information stored in a web may be structured or unstructured information. The structured information provides enhanced knowledge which helps to retrieve relevant documents. It helps the user to understand particular domain. This paper explores the importance of information extraction using semantics. It enables the users to discover...
