Original Abstract

We propose a method of information extraction from HTML documents based on modelling the visual information in the document. A page segmentation algorithm is used for detecting the document layout and subsequently, the extraction process is based on the analysis of mutual positions of the detected blocks and their visual features. This approach is more robust that the traditional DOM-based methods and it opens new possibilities for the extraction task specification.
