Abstract

In this demonstration, we showcase the technologies that we are building at Yahoo! for Web-scale Information Extraction. Given any new Website, containing semi-structured information about a pre-specified set of schemas, we show how to populate objects in the corresponding schema by automatically extracting information from the Website.
