A General Approach for Partitioning Web Page Content Based on Geometric and Style Information

In this paper, we describe a general-purpose approach for partitioning Web page content. The novelty of our approach lies in the use of detailed layout information from a Web page renderer to determine spatial locality and identify visual separators, and the use of relaxed matching over presentation style information to determine presentation style similarity. We present several examples to illustrate the generality of our approach.
