Abstract: "This dissertation contributes research towards the long-term goal of automating the extraction of conceptual models/ontologies from Web pages. A lot of work has been done in the area of extracting data content from the Web, but less attention has been given to extracting the types or conceptual schema underlying Web data. The goal of the WebOntEx (Web Ontology Extraction) project is to make progress towards semi-automatically extracting Web ontology by analyzing a set of Web pages that are in the same application domain. The ontology is considered as a complete schema of the application domain concepts. We hypothesize that there is an underlying conceptual structure to each Web page, even though the structure may be implicit. Hence we look at Web page structure as part of the schema for an application domain. Our ontology meta-concepts are based on the Extended Entity-Relationship (EER) model. The concepts are classified into entity types, relationships, and attributes. |
