| Abstract | Recent progress in information extraction technology has enabled a vast array of applications that rely on structured data that is embedded in natural-language text. In particular, the extraction of concepts from the Web---with their desired attributes---is important to provide applications with rich, structured access to information. In this paper, we focus on an important family of concepts, namely, entities (e.g., people or organizations) and their attributes, and study how to efficiently and effectively extract them from Web-accessible text documents. Unfortunately, information extraction over the Web is challenging for both quality and efficiency reasons. Regarding quality, many sources on the Web contain misleading or invalid information; furthermore, extraction systems often return incorrect data. Regarding efficiency, information extraction is a time-consuming process, often involving expensive text-processing steps. We present a top-k extraction processing approach that addresses both the quality and efficiency challenges: for each entity and attribute of interest, we return the top-k values of the attribute for the entity according to a scoring function for extracted attribute values. This scoring function weighs the extraction confidence from individual documents, as well as the "importance" of the documents where the information originates. We define the document importance in terms of entity-specific document "popularity" statistics from a major search engine. Overall, our top-k extraction processing approach manages to identify the top attribute values for the entities of interest efficiently, as we demonstrate with a large-scale experimental evaluation over real-life data. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
