Structured Data Extraction from Real Estate Documents using Clustering, Classification, and Large Language ModelsMuhammad Assad Shehbaz, Carlos Francisco Moreno-García
Real estate property listings expose structured metadata through the API. Still, the richest property-level information (i.e., legal status, structural condition, utility supplies, heating systems) sits in attached questionnaire documents that no automated system currently processes at scale. These documents are heterogeneous. Some are digitally generated with selectable text, others are scanned physical forms. There are even more complex layouts that contain checkbox annotations that defeat conventional text extraction. In this paper, we present an end-to-end pipeline for acquiring, classifying, and extracting structured data from selectable text documents. The pipeline was applied to 3965 questionnaire documents collected from a live property platform via reverse-engineered REST APIs. First, we classified each document into one of three structural categories (text_only, scanned, and special_char), then extracted 35 predefined property attributes from eligible documents using DeepSeek R1 as the Large Language Model, prompted to return a structured JSON object. All 2781 submitted documents were processed successfully, producing a final dataset of 2766 unique property records. Downstream validation confirmed the data quality. Cosine similarity matching achieves a Jaccard consistency score of 0.82, and K-Means clustering produces interpretable market segments with a silhouette score of 0.2088. Results show that the proposed extraction from each property document is both feasible and reliable at this scale.

MSA-DCNN: A Data-Efficient Multi-Scale Deformable CNN for Medical Image ClassificationHamza Hussaini, Shahana Bano, Eyad Elyan et al.
Existing deep learning methods perform well in medical image classification but struggle with multi-scale morphology and limited annotations due to fixed sampling and data-hungry training. Existing approaches address these challenges in isolation: DCN-based models provide adaptive sampling but lack explicit multi-scale attention fusion and label-efficient regularisation; multi-scale architectures typically rely on static fusion; and semi-supervised methods target label scarcity without jointly modelling adaptive cross-scale representations. We propose MSA-DCNN, a scale-consistent deformable attention learning framework that introduces adaptive multi-scale sampling, within-scale saliency refinement, learned cross-scale fusion, and auxiliary self-distillation within a unified optimisation scheme, with potential to generalise to structurally heterogeneous anatomy. We evaluate on three public benchmarks and an external hold-out set for leukaemia. MSA-DCNN demonstrates competitive and often better performance against ViT baselines, CNN baselines, and a MICCAI semi-supervised baseline under distribution shift and label scarcity in accuracy, F1, and AUC (binary), while using fewer parameters. Ablations confirm complementary component contributions, supporting MSA-DCNN as a practical foundation for data-efficient medical image classification.
