Automatic html data extraction using deeplearning - nlp

We are dealing with web pages, the objective is to let web crawler to extract data items/fields from them and put the data in a database table, automatically, without manually configure every html page to achieve that. We have enough training samples, we are trying to use deeplearning, there are several ways we come up with:
end-to-end mapping from web page to structured data in database, I want to use question-answer or summation paradigm, but current papers on these subjects are using a paragraph of text as input, not html page. Is there a deep learning kind of model fit to html situation?
break down the problem (to that deep learning model can handle): deal with the <td></td> tags separately, classify each tag into items/fields of database using some cnn or rnn text-classification model. Problem is there are possibly many tags contain the same class of information(company name, time, etc.), we can't know which one we want. Maybe we can combine some "position" features of the html, still it's not clearly how to define these features and how to merge these into the classification model to get a somehow end-to-end framework.
Is there some better way?

NLP to analyse requests

Hi I am trying to analyse descriptions of around 30000 requests to identify common requests as the data has no tags or titles.
I’ve looked at a lot of content on sentiment analysis and I’m currently thinking I need to train a model from a small random sample to better classify the data.
Is there a better approach I should be following?
Before answering your question, I would say what you're looking for has similar solutions to sentiment analysis but is a different case.
If you want to group any documents you have 2 methods to move on with in AI.
1- Supervised Learning (Classifying)
2- Unsupervised Learning (Clustering)
In your case as there is no labeled (tagged) data, then clustering is more convenient.
You can generate the tf-idf vector and use it as the feature for each word and document in descriptions and cluster the data based on that.
Depending on the coding language you use there are a lot of examples on the web but for java you can check out below links,

How to identify which Azure training model to use with Azure form recognizer service. Can multiple layouts be trained in the same model?

I have been using the form recognizer service and form labeller tool, using the version 2 of the api, to train my models to read a set of forms. But i have the need to use more than one layout of the forms, not knowing which form (pdf) layout is being uploaded.
Is it as simple as labelling the different layouts within the same model. Or is there another way to identify which model is to be used with which form.?
any help greatly appreciated
This is a common request. for now, if the 2 forms styles are not that different, you could try to train one model and see if that model could correctly extract key/value. Another option is to train two different forms, you could write a simple classification program to decide which model to use.
Form Recognizer team is working on a feature to allow user just submit the document and it would pick the most appropriate model to analyze the document. Please stay tuned for our update.
thanks

Form Recognizer Labeling - Traning model

I am trying to use Azure Form Recognizer with Labeling tool to train and extract text out of images.
As per the documentation:
First, make sure all the training documents are of the same format. If you have forms in multiple formats, organize them into subfolders based on common format. When you train, you'll need to direct the API to a subfolder. (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/form-recognizer/quickstarts/label-tool#set-up-input-data)
In my case I have different formatted images. I can create different projects, label images, train them and get expected output.
Challenge in my case is, if I follow this approach I need to create different projects, train it separately and maintain several model ids.
So I just wanted to know is there any way where we can train different formats together as a single training model? Basically I want to know if we can use single model Id to extract key-value pair out of different formatted images?
This is a feature that has been asked for by a few customers. We are working on a solution for this, expecting it to arrive in a few months. For now, we suggest you to train models separately and maintain multiple model IDs.
If these are only a few different types (e.g., 2-4), and they are easily distinguishable, you can also try training them all together. For that to work, though, you'll need to label more files, and results are still likely not going to be as good as separate models.
For trying that, put approximately the same number of images for each type all in same folder, and label altogether.
If there are many different types, this is not likely to work.

Dataset for emotion classification on social media

I would like to do emotion classification on text (posts from social media e.g. tweets, facebook wall posts, youtube comments etc ...). Though I can't find a good dataset with annotated data. I'm looking for more than just data annotated with positive and negative. I'm looking for a dataset with several emotions. This could be or discrete values (ekman 6 basic emotions) or continues values (arousal-valence model). Does anyone know where I can get such a dataset, this can be from twitter, Facebook, Myspace ... as long it is from a social network
well, I think better name (or, more often used) would be Sentiment analysis (Sentiment classification) - correct? I'm not sure if social media do offer their private data (maybe some part of it). Anyway, I found this paper:
http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/llee/papers/sentiment.pdf
They are dealing with data: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/people/pabo/movie-review-data/ from https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!aboutgroup/rec.arts.movies.reviews.
Does it suit you? Basically, finding appropriate data is usually a big problem in ML. Often it is needed to build your own (I mean to classify a part of it manually and apply some clustering or semi-supervised learning afterwards)
If you don't find anything appropriate on the web, I'd try to contact some authors that write articles similar to your research. Maybe they will have already created datasets that will fit you...

Need training data for categories like Sports, Entertainment, Health etc and all the sub categories

I am experimenting with Classification algorithms in ML and am looking for some corpus to train my model to distinguish among the different categories like sports,weather, technology, football,cricket etc,
I need some pointers on where i can find some dataset with these categories,
Another option for me, is to crawl wikipedia to get data for the 30+ categories, but i wanted some brainstorming and opinions, if there is a better way to do this.
Edit
Train the model using the bag of words approach for these categories
Test - classify new/unknown websites to these predefined categories depending on the content of the webpage.
The UCI machine learning repository contains a searchable archive of datasets for supervised learning.
You might get better answers if you provide more specific information about what inputs and outputs your ideal dataset would have.
Edit:
It looks like dmoz has a dump that you can download.
