Abstract

Segmenting a web page may be one of initial steps of information retrieval or content classification performed on that page. While there has been an extensive research in this area, the approaches usually focus either on performance or quality of the results. Vision based segmentation is one of the quality focused methods, which are considerably slow. This paper proposes an approach for boosting the performance of vision based algorithms. Our approach is based on concepts of modern web and a very common scenario in which an entire web site is processed at once. In this scenario, a great amount of performance boost can be gained by isomorphic mapping of previous results gathered from pages within the site to other pages on the same site. We provide the results of experiments performed on VIPS, the most common algorithm for page segmentation.
