AI Analysis

This work addresses the specific issue of information extraction for semantic publishing in academic contexts, but it is incremental as it applies existing template and linking methods to a new dataset.

The paper tackled the problem of extracting structured data from web sites with unstable markup by developing a template-based crawler for CEUR Workshop proceedings, resulting in a Linked Open Data dataset with entities linked to DBpedia.

This paper presents results of a work on crawling CEUR Workshop proceedings web site to a Linked Open Data (LOD) dataset in the framework of ESWC 2014 Semantic Publishing Challenge 2014. Our approach is based on using an extensible template-dependent crawler and DBpedia for linking extracted entities, such as the names of universities and countries.
