Web database query interface annotation based on user collaboration-WuhamUJ06

"Web database query interface annotation based on user collaboration", Lin Wei, Lin Can, Meng Xiaofeng; Wuahan University Journal of Natural Sciences, 2006
  • short paper for a vision based query interface annotation method
  • The GOAL of the system: to provide stimulant web service for programmatic usage of the web database
  • the interface annotation work combines automatic annotations methods and user anticipation to achieve much higher accuracy
  • the annotations refer to the "meaning" of the elements of a form
  • An URL is submitted to an URL fetcher from an interface repository; It is then transformed into a form-based query interface and an automatic process adds annotations over the block elements of the form; the annotations are send back to the user for review
  • No experiments provided; supposedly the system has 80% accuracy
