Abstract

Ontology plays an important role in locating Domain-Specific Deep Web contents, therefore, this paper presents a novel framework WFF for efficiently locating Domain-Specific Deep Web databases based on focused crawling and ontology by constructing Web Page Classifier(WPC), Form Structure Classifier(FSC) and Form Content Classifier(FCC) in a hierarchical fashion. Firstly, WPC discovers potentially interesting pages based on ontology-assisted focused crawler. Then, FSC analyzes the interesting pages and determines whether these pages subsume searchable forms based on structural characteristics. Lastly, FCC identifies searchable forms that belong to a given domain in the semantic level, and stores these URLs of Domain-Specific searchable forms to a database. Through a detailed experimental evaluation, WFF framework not only simplifies discovering process, but also effectively determines Domain-Specific databases.
