To extract and represent domain-independent web scale data, we introduce a schema-less and self-describing data model called Object-oriented Web Model (OWM), which is rich in semantics and flexible in structure. It represents web pages as objects with hierarchical structures and links in a web page as relationships to other objects, so that objects form a network. Taking use of web segmentation techniques, data from data-intensive web pages can be extracted, represented and integrated as OWM objects.Read the full paper here: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-25264-3_44
