DRUID : coupling user written documents and databases

Résumé

Most database applications capture their data using graphical forms. Fields have limited size and predefined type. Although data in fields is associated with constraints, it is modeled to conform to a rigid schema. Unfortunately, too many constraints on data are not convenient as most human activities are document-centric. In fact, documents are a natural way for human information production and consumption. In this paper, we introduce DRUID, a document capturing and wrapping system. It ensures flexible and well-adapted information capture based on a Document User Interface and information retrieval based on databases. DRUID relies on a wrapper that transforms documents contents into relevant data. Also, it provides an expressive specification language for end-users to write domain-related extraction patterns. We validate our information system with a prototype.
