  1. Learning Patterns on the World Wide Web Andrew Hogue Advisor: David Karger October 17, 2003

  2. Agenda • What is a pattern? • How do we make one? • How do we use it? • Why do you want one? • Demo

  3. What is a pattern? • Objects in the world have certain semantic properties • A pattern is a way of recognizing the semantic properties of an object we’ve seen before • A pattern is a structure with semantic slots to be filled in

  4. Example – Books • Define an object’s semantics (ontology): Class: Book Property: Author Property: Title Property: Price Property: Publisher Property: ISBN . . .

  5. Example - Books Class: Book Property: Author Property: Title Property: Price Property: Publisher Property: ISBN . . . ? ?

  6. Example - Books Class: Book Property: Author Property: Title Property: Price Property: Publisher Property: ISBN . . .

  7. Example - Books Class: Book Property: Author Property: Title Property: Price Property: Publisher Property: ISBN . . .
