  1. Outline WebTables & Octopus Michael J. Cafarella � WebTables University of Washington � Octopus CSE454 April 30, 2009 2 3 WebTables � WebTables system automatically extracts dbs from This page contains 16 distinct HTML tables, web crawl but only one relational database [WebDB08, “Uncovering…”, Cafarella et al] [VLDB08, “WebTables: Exploring…”, Cafarella et al] Each relational database has its own schema, Schema Statistics usually with labeled columns. Applications Raw crawled pages Raw HTML Tables Recovered Relations � An extracted relation is one table plus labeled columns � Estimate that our crawl of 14.1B raw HTML tables contains ~ 154M good relational dbs 6 1
