recall). n is the number of links on the result page, n1 (n2) the number of immediatenumeric (non-numeric) pagination links on the page, and P, R are precision and recallfor our approach.1 For each website we also present a screenshot of either its pagina-tion links or a potential false positive. Even in this small sample of webpages, we canobserve the diversity of pagination links: Only six of the twelve websites have a typ-ical pagination link layout (non-numeric link containing a NEXT keyword and a list ofnumeric links with the current page represented as a non-link). Some of the challengesevident from this table are:1. For FindAProperty and IKEA the index of the current page is a link and thus we
need to consider, e.g., its style to distinguish it from the other links.2. For Zoopla the “50” for the results per page can be easily mistaken for an immediate
numeric pagination link.3. For Savills, numeric links come as intervals. However, our NUMBER annotations also
cover numeric ranges (as well as “2k” or “two”).4. For Amazon the result page contains a confusing scrollbar for navigation through
the related products (right screenshot).5. For Lands’ End the non-numeric pagination link is an image. However, our ap-
proach classifies it correctly, based on the context and attribute values.6. TechCrunch contains a single isolated non-numeric pagination link, that we are able
to identify due to the keyword present in its text and the proximity to “Page 1”.7. TMZ has a pagination link that carries both a NEXT and a NUMBER annotation. From
the context, we nevertheless identify it correctly as non-numeric.
1 Precision is the percentage of true positives among the nodes identified as pagination links,recall the percentage of identified pagination links among all pagination links (and thus lowerrecall means more false negatives).

OPAL-TL templates. OPAL-TL extends Datalog¬ (Datalog withstratified negation) by templates to define reusable patterns for do-main concepts. Examples of such patterns are basic classificationpatterns that derive a domain type from a conjunction of annota-tion types or min-max range patterns where we look for multiplefields with related annotations in a group and some clue that theyrepresent a range. There are two types of template patterns, one forclassification constraints, one for structural constraints. The formerspecify patterns for relationships between domain and annotationtypes, the latter the abstract structure of domain concepts,
DEFINITION 12. A OPAL-TL template is an expression of theform TEMPLATE name <D1, . . . ,Dk> { p ( expr } where name is thename of the template, D1, . . . ,Dk are formal template parameters,p a template atom, and expr a conjunction of template atoms andannotation queries. A template atom is an expression of the formp<C1, . . . ,Ck>(X1, . . . ,Xn) where p is a first-order predicate name,X1, . . . ,Xn first-order variables and C1, . . . ,Ck template variables.First-order variables and template variables are disjoint. A tem-plate atom is template ground if all its template variables are val-ued to a constant. A template atom is ground if it is template groundand all its first-order variables are valued to a constant.
Multiple rules with the same head express union as usual. For con-venience, we use _ and ¬ over conjunctions, which are translatedto pure Datalog¬ rules as usual (and with no effect on data com-plexity).
As an example, the following template defines a family of con-straints that associate the domain type D to a node N whenever Nis labeled by an exclusive direct and proper annotation of type A.
TEMPLATE basic_concept <D,A> { concept<D>(N) ( N@A{e,d,l} }
A template tpl is instantiated to produce a family of rules wherethe formal template variables D1, . . . ,Dk are instantiated using val-ues vi
1, . . . ,vik from a template instantiation expression of the form
INSTANTIATE tpl <D1, . . . ,Dk> using { <v11, . . . ,v
1k> . . . <vn
1, . . . ,vnk> }
For example, the following template instantiation expression in-stantiates basic_concept replacing D with type RADIUS and A withannotation type radius:
INSTANTIATE basic_concept <D,A> using {<RADIUS, radius>}
It thus produces the following template ground rule:
concept<radius_node>(N) ( N@RADIUS{e,d,l}
PROPOSITION 1. OPAL-TL has the same data complexity asDatalog¬.
PROOF. After instantiation OPAL-TL rules are translated to Dat-alog with stratified negation and inequality by producing uniquenames for concept<S> predicate names, and expanding _ into mul-tiple rules. Though instantiation can yield a Datalog program ex-ponential in the size of the OPAL-TL specification, data complexityremains unaffected.
5.2 ClassificationClassification is based on the classification constraints of the do-
main schema. In OPAL these constraints are specified using OPAL-TL to enable reuse of domain concept and concept patterns. In the
TEMPLATE basic_concept<C,A> { concept<C>(N) ( N@A{d,e,p} }2
TEMPLATE concept_by_segment<C,A> {4 concept<C>(N) ( N@A{e,p} }
6 TEMPLATE concept_minmax<C,CM,A> {concept<CM>(N1)(child(N1,G),child(N2,G),adjacent(N1,N2),
8 N1@A{e,d},(concept<C>(N2) _ N2@A{e,d})concept<CM>(N1)(child(N1,G),child(N2,G),follows(N2,N1),
10 concept<C>(N1),N2@range_connector{e,d},¬(A1 � A, N2@A1{d})concept<CM>(N1)(child(N1,G),child(N2,G),adjacent(N1,N2),
12 N1@A{e,p},N2@A{e,p},�(N1@min{e,p},N2@max{e,p})
_ (N1@max{e,p},N2@min{e,p})�
Figure 8: OPAL-TL classification templates
real estate and used car domain, we identify three patterns that suf-fice to describe nearly all classification constraints. These patternseffectively capture very common semantic entities in forms and,in principle, can be parametrized using domain knowledge. Thebuilding blocks are a domain type (or concept) C and an annotationtype A that is used to define a classification constraint for C. Noneof these patterns uses more than one annotation type as template pa-rameter, though many query additional (but fixed) annotation typesin their bodies.
Table 8 shows the OPAL-TL templates for classification constraintsin the real-estate and used car domain
(1) Basic concept. The first template captures direct classifica-tion of a node N with type C, if N matches X@A{d,e,p}, i.e., hasmore proper labels of type A than of any other type A0 with A0 � A.This template is by far the most used, primarily for concepts withunambiguous proper labels.
(2) Concept by segment. The second template relaxes the re-quirement by considering also indirect labels (i.e., labels of theparent segment). In the real estate and used car domains, thistemplate is used primarily for control fields such as ORDER_BY orDISPLAY_METHOD (grid, list, map) where the possible values of the fieldare often misleading (e.g., an ORDER_BY field may contain “price”,“location”, etc. as values).
(3) Min-max concept. Web forms often show pairs of fields rep-resenting min-max values for a feature (e.g., the number of bed-rooms of a property). We specify this pattern using three simplerules (line 6–13), that describe three configurations of groups withelements with only value labels (proper labels are captured by thefirst two templates). It is the only template with two concept tem-plate parameters, C and CM where CM <C is the “minmax” variantof C. The first locates, adjacent pairs of such nodes or a single suchnode and one that is already classified as C. The second rule locatesnodes where the second follows directly the first (already classifiedwith C), has a range_connector (e.g., “from” or “to”), and is not anno-tated with an annotation type with precedence over A. The last rulealso locates adjacent pairs of such nodes and classifies them withCM if they carry a combination of min and max annotations.
In addition to these templates, there is also a small number ofspecific patterns. In the real estate domain, e.g., we use the follow-ing rule to describe forms that use a links for submission (ratherthan submit fields or buttons). Identifying such a link (withoutprobing and analysis of Javascript event handlers) is performedbased on an annotation type for typical content, title (i.e., tooltip),or alt attribute of contained images. This is mostly, but not entirelydomain independent (e.g., in real-estate a “rent” link is a strongcandidate).

OPAL-TL templates. OPAL-TL extends Datalog¬ (Datalog withstratified negation) by templates to define reusable patterns for do-main concepts. Examples of such patterns are basic classificationpatterns that derive a domain type from a conjunction of annota-tion types or min-max range patterns where we look for multiplefields with related annotations in a group and some clue that theyrepresent a range. There are two types of template patterns, one forclassification constraints, one for structural constraints. The formerspecify patterns for relationships between domain and annotationtypes, the latter the abstract structure of domain concepts,
DEFINITION 12. A OPAL-TL template is an expression of theform TEMPLATE name <D1, . . . ,Dk> { p ( expr } where name is thename of the template, D1, . . . ,Dk are formal template parameters,p a template atom, and expr a conjunction of template atoms andannotation queries. A template atom is an expression of the formp<C1, . . . ,Ck>(X1, . . . ,Xn) where p is a first-order predicate name,X1, . . . ,Xn first-order variables and C1, . . . ,Ck template variables.First-order variables and template variables are disjoint. A tem-plate atom is template ground if all its template variables are val-ued to a constant. A template atom is ground if it is template groundand all its first-order variables are valued to a constant.
Multiple rules with the same head express union as usual. For con-venience, we use _ and ¬ over conjunctions, which are translatedto pure Datalog¬ rules as usual (and with no effect on data com-plexity).
As an example, the following template defines a family of con-straints that associate the domain type D to a node N whenever Nis labeled by an exclusive direct and proper annotation of type A.
TEMPLATE basic_concept <D,A> { concept<D>(N) ( N@A{e,d,l} }
A template tpl is instantiated to produce a family of rules wherethe formal template variables D1, . . . ,Dk are instantiated using val-ues vi
1, . . . ,vik from a template instantiation expression of the form
INSTANTIATE tpl <D1, . . . ,Dk> using { <v11, . . . ,v
1k> . . . <vn
1, . . . ,vnk> }
For example, the following template instantiation expression in-stantiates basic_concept replacing D with type RADIUS and A withannotation type radius:
INSTANTIATE basic_concept <D,A> using {<RADIUS, radius>}
It thus produces the following template ground rule:
concept<radius_node>(N) ( N@RADIUS{e,d,l}
PROPOSITION 1. OPAL-TL has the same data complexity asDatalog¬.
PROOF. After instantiation OPAL-TL rules are translated to Dat-alog with stratified negation and inequality by producing uniquenames for concept<S> predicate names, and expanding _ into mul-tiple rules. Though instantiation can yield a Datalog program ex-ponential in the size of the OPAL-TL specification, data complexityremains unaffected.
5.2 ClassificationClassification is based on the classification constraints of the do-
main schema. In OPAL these constraints are specified using OPAL-TL to enable reuse of domain concept and concept patterns. In the
TEMPLATE basic_concept<C,A> { concept<C>(N) ( N@A{d,e,p} }2
TEMPLATE concept_by_segment<C,A> {4 concept<C>(N) ( N@A{e,p} }
6 TEMPLATE concept_minmax<C,CM,A> {concept<CM>(N1)(child(N1,G),child(N2,G),adjacent(N1,N2),
8 N1@A{e,d},(concept<C>(N2) _ N2@A{e,d})concept<CM>(N1)(child(N1,G),child(N2,G),follows(N2,N1),
10 concept<C>(N1),N2@range_connector{e,d},¬(A1 � A, N2@A1{d})concept<CM>(N1)(child(N1,G),child(N2,G),adjacent(N1,N2),
12 N1@A{e,p},N2@A{e,p},�(N1@min{e,p},N2@max{e,p})
_ (N1@max{e,p},N2@min{e,p})�
Figure 8: OPAL-TL classification templates
real estate and used car domain, we identify three patterns that suf-fice to describe nearly all classification constraints. These patternseffectively capture very common semantic entities in forms and,in principle, can be parametrized using domain knowledge. Thebuilding blocks are a domain type (or concept) C and an annotationtype A that is used to define a classification constraint for C. Noneof these patterns uses more than one annotation type as template pa-rameter, though many query additional (but fixed) annotation typesin their bodies.
Table 8 shows the OPAL-TL templates for classification constraintsin the real-estate and used car domain
(1) Basic concept. The first template captures direct classifica-tion of a node N with type C, if N matches X@A{d,e,p}, i.e., hasmore proper labels of type A than of any other type A0 with A0 � A.This template is by far the most used, primarily for concepts withunambiguous proper labels.
(2) Concept by segment. The second template relaxes the re-quirement by considering also indirect labels (i.e., labels of theparent segment). In the real estate and used car domains, thistemplate is used primarily for control fields such as ORDER_BY orDISPLAY_METHOD (grid, list, map) where the possible values of the fieldare often misleading (e.g., an ORDER_BY field may contain “price”,“location”, etc. as values).
(3) Min-max concept. Web forms often show pairs of fields rep-resenting min-max values for a feature (e.g., the number of bed-rooms of a property). We specify this pattern using three simplerules (line 6–13), that describe three configurations of groups withelements with only value labels (proper labels are captured by thefirst two templates). It is the only template with two concept tem-plate parameters, C and CM where CM <C is the “minmax” variantof C. The first locates, adjacent pairs of such nodes or a single suchnode and one that is already classified as C. The second rule locatesnodes where the second follows directly the first (already classifiedwith C), has a range_connector (e.g., “from” or “to”), and is not anno-tated with an annotation type with precedence over A. The last rulealso locates adjacent pairs of such nodes and classifies them withCM if they carry a combination of min and max annotations.
In addition to these templates, there is also a small number ofspecific patterns. In the real estate domain, e.g., we use the follow-ing rule to describe forms that use a links for submission (ratherthan submit fields or buttons). Identifying such a link (withoutprobing and analysis of Javascript event handlers) is performedbased on an annotation type for typical content, title (i.e., tooltip),or alt attribute of contained images. This is mostly, but not entirelydomain independent (e.g., in real-estate a “rent” link is a strongcandidate).

DEFINITION 11. Given a form labeling F on a DOM P and anannotation schema L, an OPAL-TL annotation query is an expres-sion of the form: X@A{d, p,e} where X is a first-order variable,A 2 A, and d, p, and e are annotation modifiers. An annotationquery X@Aµ with µ ✓ {d, p,e} holds for all X 2 JAµ K with
J@Aµ K = {n 2 P : Allowµ (n)\Matchµ (A) 6= /0}\Blockµ (A)
with Allowµ (n) set to y(n) for d 2 µ , and y(n)[y(parent of n)otherwise. Matchµ (A) is to {l :
SA0<⇤A isLabelA0(l)} for p 2 µ , and
{l :S
A0<⇤A(isLabelA0(l)_ isValueA0(l))} otherwise. Blockµ (A) equals{n : 9A0 �A, |Matchµ (A)|< |Matchµ (A0)|} if e2 µ , and /0 otherwise.
Intuitively, an annotation query X@A returns all nodes labeledwith a label that is annotated with A. If the modifier d (direct) isnot present, we also consider the (direct) segment parents, other-wise only direct labels are considered. If the modifier p (proper) ispresent, only isLabelA is used, otherwise also isValueA. If the modi-fier e (exclusive) is present, a node that fullfils all other conditionsis still not returned, if there are more labels with annotations of atype that has precedence over A.
Consider the form labeling of Figure 6 under a schema withC < B and B � A. Labels are denoted with triangles, fields withdiamonds, segments with circles. Labels are further annotated withmatching annotation types (here always only one). If value labelsare drawn as outlines. Then, X@A{} matches 2,3,4; X@A{e,d}matches 2,4, but not 3 as 3 has more labels of B (or one of its sub-classes) than of A and the exclusive modifier e is present; X@A{e, p}matches 2,3, but not 4 as the proper modifier p prevents the valuelabels in white to be considered. The latter matches 3 despite thepresence of e, as we consider also the labels of the parent of 3 (sincethe direct modifier d is absent) and thus there are two A labels.
OPAL-TL templates. OPAL-TL extends Datalog¬ (Datalog withstratified negation) by templates to define reusable patterns for do-main concepts. Examples of such patterns are basic classificationpatterns that derive a domain type from a conjunction of annotationtypes or min-max range patterns where we look for multiple fieldswith related annotations in a group and some clue that they repre-sent a range. In general, there are two types of template patterns,one for classification constraints, one for structural constraints. Theformer specify patterns for relationships between domain and an-notation types, the latter the abstract structure of domain concepts.
DEFINITION 12. An OPAL-TL template is an expressionTEMPLATE N<D1, . . . ,Dk> { p ( expr } where N names the template,D1, . . . ,Dk are template parameters, p is a template atom, expra conjunction of template atoms and annotation queries. A tem-plate atom p<C1, . . . ,Ck>(X1, . . . ,Xn) consists of first-order predi-cate name p, template variables C1, . . . ,Ck, and first-order vari-ables X1, . . . ,Xn.
Multiple rules with the same head express union as usual. For con-venience, we use _ and ¬ over conjunctions, which are translatedto pure Datalog¬ rules as usual (not effecting data complexity).

Figure 7: OPAL-TL classification templates
As an example, the following template defines a family of con-straints that associate the domain type D to a node N whenever Nis labeled by an exclusive direct and proper annotation of type A.
TEMPLATE basic_concept<D,A> { concept<D>(N) ( N@A{e,d,l} }
A template tpl is instantiated to produce a family of rules wherethe formal template variables D1, . . . ,Dk are instantiated using val-ues vi
1, . . . ,vik from a template instantiation expression of the form
INSTANTIATE tpl<D1, . . . ,Dk> using { <v11, . . . ,v
1k> . . . <vn
1, . . . ,vnk> }
For example, the following expression instantiates basic_conceptreplacing D with type RADIUS and A with annotation type radius
INSTANTIATE basic_concept<D,A> using {<RADIUS, radius>}
and produces the following instantiated rule:
concept<RADIUS>(N)(N@radius{e,d,l}
PROP. 1. OPAL-TL has the same data complexity as Datalog¬.
4.2 ClassificationClassification is based on the classification constraints of the do-
main schema. In OPAL these constraints are specified using OPAL-TL to enable reuse of domain concepts and concept patterns. In thereal estate and used car domains, we identify three patterns that suf-fice to describe nearly all classification constraints. These patternseffectively capture very common semantic entities in forms and areparametrized using domain knowledge. The building blocks are adomain type (or concept) C and an annotation type A that is used todefine a classification constraint for C. None of these patterns usesmore than one annotation type as template parameter, though manyquery additional (but fixed) annotation types in their bodies.
Figure 7 shows the classification templates for real-estate andused car: (1) Basic concept. The first template captures direct clas-sification of a node N with type C, if N matches X@A{d,e,p}, i.e.,has more proper labels of type A than of any other type A0 withA0 � A. This template is used by far most frequently, primarily forconcepts with unambiguous proper labels. (2) Concept by segment.The second template relaxes the requirement by considering alsoindirect labels (i.e., labels of the parent segment). In the real estateand used car domains, this template is instantiated primarily forcontrol fields such as ORDER_BY or DISPLAY_METHOD (grid, list, map)where the possible values of the field are often misleading (e.g.,an ORDER_BY field may contain “price”, “location”, etc. as values).(3) Min-max concept. Web forms often show pairs of fields repre-senting min-max values for a feature (e.g., the number of bedroomsof a property). We specify this pattern with three simple rules (line5–12), that describe three configurations of segments with fields as-sociated with value labels only (proper labels are captured by the

its of order dominance: The pivot nodes in E are organized ratherregularly, whereas the pivot nodes in D1 vary quite notably. How-ever, there variation is small enough that M1,1 to M1,4 are depth anddistance consistent (for d = e = 3). The two lower pivot nodes inE however are neither depth (due to M1,1) nor distance consistent(due to M1,2 and M1,3) and therefore can not be added to this clus-ter. They form a separate cluster together with the rightmost pivotnode in E. This cluster, however, is not order dominant and there-fore dropped in lines 24� 28. Thus, y(D1), the support of D1, isonly {M1,1, . . . ,M1,4} and the three remaining pivot nodes in E arenot used further.
The latter shows that in some cases order dominance may notidentify the “best” data area. The primary reason is that depth anddistance consistence are defined using absolute thresholds for theentire page, rather than allowing data areas with different levelsof consistency on a page. Pages with such a structure occur veryinfrequently in practice (as demonstrated by the evaluation in Sec-tion 5) and could be addressed by a slight extension of the currentidentification algorithm (see Section 6).
4.2 Record SegmentationAMBER is tailored to result pages with multiple “records”, i.e.,
representations of domain entities. During the data area identifica-tion, we identify areas of a page with sufficient repeated structurein the relevant data that we can assume that records in such a dataarea are instantiations of the same template and thus have a similarstructure. Despite this assumption AMBER can deal with a largedegree of noise: (1) AMBER tolerates inter-record noise, such asadvertisements, by focusing on relevant data. (2) AMBER toler-ates most intra-record variances due to, e.g., optional attributes ormultiple entity types by segmenting records based only on manda-tory, usually highly regular attributes. (3) AMBER also addressesmulti-template pages, where records on the same page are gener-ated from different templates by considering each data area sepa-rately for record segmentation. AMBER approximates relevant dataand structural similarity of records through occurrences of manda-tory attribute types only, as in the data area case. This allows AM-BER to scale to large and complex pages at ease.
DEFINITION 7. A record is a set r of children of a data aread such that r is continuous for � and r contains at least one pivotnode from y(d). A record segmentation of d is a set of uniform,non-overlapping records R, i.e., all records in R have the samesize and no child of d occurs in more than one record.
For example generation, we are interested in record segmenta-tions that expose the regular structure of the page. We formalizethis as the following dual objective optimization problem:
(1) Maximize the length of an evenly segmented sequence of pivotnodes. A sequence of pivot nodes p1, . . . , pn is evenly seg-mented in a data area d, if the subtrees containing the pi oc-cur in distinct records and all have the same distance from eachother, i.e., if there is a k such that li �sibl li+1 = k for all i whereli is the child of the data area d that contains pi.
(2) Minimize the irregularity of the record segmentation. Theirregularity of a record segmentation R is the sumof the relative tree edit distances between all pairsof nodes in different records in R, irregularity(R) =Ân2r,n02r0with r 6=r02R editDist(n,n0) where editDist(n,n0) is thestandard tree edit distance normalized by the size of the sub-trees rooted at n and n0 (their “maximum” edit distance).
In AMBER we approximate such a record segmentation using Al-gorithm 2. It computes a record segmentation in two steps such thatthe record segmentation contains a large sequence of evenly seg-mented pivot nodes and has minimal irregularity among all recordsegmentations with those pivot nodes and same record size. Ina pre-processing step all children of the data area that contain notext or attributes (“empty” nodes) are collapsed and excluded fromthe further discussion under the assumption that these are separatenodes such as br.
First, we determine the sequence of pivot nodes underlying thesegmentation. We identify the pivot nodes by their “leading node”,i.e., the child of the data area that contains the pivot node (line 1, L).In lines 3� 4 we estimate the distance Len between leading nodesthat yields the largest evenly segmented sequence: The children ofthe data area are partitioned at each leading node and Len becomesthe minimum partition size that occurs with maximal frequency inthe resulting partition (line 4). In lines 5� 8 we drop all leadingnodes from L that are less than Len from their previous leadingnode, except for the start (line 5) and end (line 6) of the sequence,where we remove the outer leading nodes under the assumption thatthey are noise in the header or trailer of the data area.
Second, we use the remaining leading nodes to compute all seg-mentations with record size Len such that each record contains atleast one leading node from L. To that end, line 9 compute thestart points of these records by shifting to the left from the nodesin L. We then iterate over all the sequences of such start pointsin the loop of line 12� 18 and compute the actual segmentationsas the records of Len length from each starting point (line 14). Byconstruction these are records, as they are continuous and containat least one leading node (and thus at least one pivot node). Thewhole Segmentation is a record segmentation as its record are non-overlapping (due to lines 5� 8) and of uniform size Len (line 15).Among all these record segmentations we then return the one withthe lowest irregularity (lines 15�18).
PROPOSITION 1. Algorithm 2 runs in O(b ·n3) on a data aread where b is the degree of D and n the size of d.
PROOF. Lines 1� 8 are clearly in O(b2). Line 9 generates atmost b + 1 segmentations (as Len b) of at most b size. Theloop is executed once for each such segmentation and dominatedby the computation of irregularity() which is bounded by O(n3) us-ing a standard tree edit distance algorithm. Since b n, the overallbound is O(b ·n3).
In Figure 2, the record segmentation is fairly straightforwardsince both data areas are rather regular. We eliminate the sepa-rator nodes (the white diamonds) and then segment the children ofthe data areas. The first f of the e data area is omitted as it does notform a record of size 2 as all others in e.

repeated occurrences of variable data (“slots” of the un-derlying page template) and therefore extracts too manyattributes. For example, ROADRUNNER extracts on somepages more than 300 attributes, mostly URLs and elementsin menu structures, where our gold standard contains only90 actual attributes. To avoid biasing the evaluation againstROADRUNNER, we filter the output of ROADRUNNER, byremoving the description block, duplicate URLs, and at-tributes not contained in the gold standard, such as page ortelephone numbers.
Another issue in comparing AMBER with ROAD-RUNNER is that ROADRUNNER only extracts entire textnodes. For example, ROADRUNNER might extract “Price£114,995”, while AMBER would produce “£114,995”.Therefore we evaluate ROADRUNNER in two ways, once
counting an attribute as correctly extracted if the gold stan-dard value is contained in one of the attributes extractedby ROADRUNNER (RR ⇡ in Figure 23), and once count-ing an attribute only as correctly extracted if the strings ex-actly match (RR = in Figure 23). Finally, as ROADRUN-NER works better with more than one result page from thesame site, we exclude sites with a single result page fromthis comparison. The results are shown in Figure 23. AM-BER outperforms ROADRUNNER by a wide margin, whichreaches only 49% in precision and 66% in recall comparedto almost perfect scores for AMBER. As expected, recall ishigher than precision in ROADRUNNER.
Comparison with MDR. We further evaluate AMBER withMDR, an automatic system for mining data records in webpages. MDR is able to recognize data areas and records,but unlike AMBER, not attributes. Therefore in our com-parison we only consider precision and recall for data areasand records in both real estate and used cars domains. Alsofor the comparison with ROADRUNNER, we avoid biasingthe evaluation against MDR filtering out page portions e.g.,menu, footer, pagination links, whose regularity in structuremisleads MDR. Indeed, these are recognized by MDR asdata areas or records. Figure 23 illustrates the results. Inall cases, AMBER outperforms MDR which on used-carsreports 57% in precision and 72% in recall as best perfor-mance. MDR suffers the complex structure of data records,which may contain optional information as nested repeatedstructure. This, in turn, are often (wrongly) recognized byMDR as record (data area).
6.4 AMBER Learning
The evaluation of AMBER’s learning capabilities is donewith respect to the upfront learning mode discussed in Sec-tion 4. In particular, we want to evaluate AMBER’s abilityof constructing an accurate and complete gazetteer for anattribute type from an incomplete and noisy seed gazetteer.We show that at each learning iteration (see Algorithm 5 inSection 4) the accuracy of the gazetteer is significantly im-proved, and that the learning process converges to a stablegazetteer after few iterations, even in the case of attributetypes with large and/or irregular value distributions in theirdomains.
Setting. In the evaluation that follows we show AMBER’slearning behaviour on the LOCATION attribute type. In oursetting, the term location refers to formal geographical lo-cations such as towns, counties and regions, e.g., “Oxford”,“Hampshire”, and “Midlands”. Also, it is often the casethat the value for an attribute type consists of multiple andsomehow structured terms, e.g., “The Old Barn, St. ThomasStreet - Oxford”.

neighborhood of links just as well, but although relatively sophisticated, such fea-tures fail to contribute significantly towards high accuracy results, either alone orcombined with content or structural features, as discussed in Section 7. CS: can we
give an example where some seemingly good heuristics breaks down? In the best case, we would use a
heuristic which has been employed by the other approaches.
4. Page position features: Pagination links usually appear on top or below the pagi-nated information. Thus, a link’s relative position on a page or whether it occurs onthe first screen (at a typical resolution) might seem to constitute a promising fea-ture. Unfortunately, advertisement or navigation headers and footers easily affectthese features significantly (and reliably recognizing those is anything but easy).For simple features, Section 7 again shows that neither alone nor combined witheither content or structural features high accuracy is achieved. CS: can we give an ex-
ample where some seemingly good heuristics breaks down? Has this been used by other approaches? If

Fortunately, BERyL makes it very easy to extract a large set of features throughdeclarative (Datalog) extraction rules. On the extracted feature model, we employ stan-dard machine learning techniques for automated feature selection and classification.With this combination, we achieve near perfect accuracy for identifying paginationlinks, yet remain comparable in performance to other block classification methods thatincorporate visual features: All these approaches are dominated in performance by theunderlying page rendering, which is necessary to extract the visual features and whichbecomes unavoidable even for content and structural features, as scripted pages reshapethe web today. Nevertheless, we identify pagination links on most pages within onesecond. Furthermore, this is by far offset by the fact that a high-accuracy identificationof pagination links avoids following many irrelevant links without missing any relevantdata. Achieve and verify 1 sec

recall). n is the number of links on the result page, n1 (n2) the number of immediatenumeric (non-numeric) pagination links on the page, and P, R are precision and recallfor our approach.1 For each website we also present a screenshot of either its pagina-tion links or a potential false positive. Even in this small sample of webpages, we canobserve the diversity of pagination links: Only six of the twelve websites have a typ-ical pagination link layout (non-numeric link containing a NEXT keyword and a list ofnumeric links with the current page represented as a non-link). Some of the challengesevident from this table are:1. For FindAProperty and IKEA the index of the current page is a link and thus we
need to consider, e.g., its style to distinguish it from the other links.2. For Zoopla the “50” for the results per page can be easily mistaken for an immediate
numeric pagination link.3. For Savills, numeric links come as intervals. However, our NUMBER annotations also
cover numeric ranges (as well as “2k” or “two”).4. For Amazon the result page contains a confusing scrollbar for navigation through
the related products (right screenshot).5. For Lands’ End the non-numeric pagination link is an image. However, our ap-
proach classifies it correctly, based on the context and attribute values.6. TechCrunch contains a single isolated non-numeric pagination link, that we are able
to identify due to the keyword present in its text and the proximity to “Page 1”.7. TMZ has a pagination link that carries both a NEXT and a NUMBER annotation. From
the context, we nevertheless identify it correctly as non-numeric.
1 Precision is the percentage of true positives among the nodes identified as pagination links,recall the percentage of identified pagination links among all pagination links (and thus lowerrecall means more false negatives).

Fig. 4: BERyL feature templates
In a similar way, the second template defines a boolean feature that holds for nodesof interest, if there is another node in their proximity for which Property(Close) is true.To instantiate it to nodes that are annotated with PAGINATION, we write
INSTANTIATE in_proximity<Model,Property(Close)>2 USING <plm, plm::annotated_by<PAGINATION(Closest)>
Observe, that BERyL templates thus allow for two forms of template parameters: vari-ables and predicates. More formally,
Definition 3. A BERyL template is an expression TEMPLATE N<D1, . . . ,Dk>{p( expr} suchthat N is the template name, D1, . . . ,Dk are template parameters, p is a template atom,expr is a conjunction of template atoms and annotation queries. A template parameteris either a variable or an expression of the shape p(V1, . . . ,Vl) where p is a predicatevariable and V1, . . . , Vn are names of required first order variables in bindings of p.
A template atom p<C1, . . . ,Ck>(X1, . . . ,Xn) consists of a first-order predicate name orpredicate variable p, template variables C1, . . . ,Ck, and first-order variables X1, . . . ,Xn.If p(V1, . . . ,Vl) is a parameter for N, then {V1, . . .Vl}⇢ {X1, . . . ,Xn}.
An instantiation always has to provide bindings for all template parameters. Weextend the usual safety and stratification definitions in the obvious way to a BERyLtemplate program. Then it is easy to see that the rules derived by instantiating a safeand stratified template program are always a safe, stratified Datalog¬,Agg program.

language query to SPARQL, yet can fall back to standard information retrieval,where this fails.
The domain-specific implementation of the conceptual framework, which weused for the real estate domain, is depicted in Figure 2. It covers the abovedescribed steps by employing state-of-the-art tools in the respective areas, OX-Path for data extraction to RDF, Limes for linking to the linked data cloud,and TBSL for translating natural language questions to Sparql queries. In thefollowing, we briefly discuss how each of these challenges are addressed in deqa.
2.1 OXPath for RDF extraction
OXPath is a recently introduced [9] modern wrapper language that combinesease-of-use (through a very small extension of standard XPath and a suite ofvisual tools [14]) with highly efficient data extraction. Here, we illustrate OXPaththrough a sample wrapper shown in Figure 3.
This wrapper directly produces RDF triples, for which we extended OXPathwith RDF extraction markers that generate both data and object propertiesincluding proper type information and object identities. For example the extrac-tion markers <:(gr:Offering> and <gr:includes(dd:House)> in Figure 3 produce –given a suitable page – a set of matches typed as gr:Offering, each with a set ofdd:House children. When this expression is evaluated for RDF output, each pairof such matches generates two RDF instances related by gr:includes and typedas above (i.e., three RDF triples).
