HTML Email Content Extraction via DOM Link Positioning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional techniques for identifying key elements in machine-generated electronic mail require large pre-processing and training, leading to resource wastage and inefficiency in processing and network throughput.
Innovation Solution
A novel framework for partitioning HTML content in email messages based on the relative positions of links within the DOM hierarchy, allowing for real-time, scalable, and pre-processing-free identification of meaningful entities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If conventional clustering mechanisms are used to identify key elements in email messages, then measurement precision is improved, but loss of time and productivity deteriorate due to extensive pre-processing requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and analyzes only the hyperlink elements from email messages, rather than processing the entire message content. By focusing specifically on hyperlink attributes (URL, anchor text, position), the system achieves accurate content identification without the need for extensive pre-processing of full message bodies, thus resolving the contradiction between identification accuracy and pre-processing time
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates simplified representations of email content by copying only the essential hyperlink data into a structured format for analysis. This copying approach allows the system to work with a reduced data subset that retains the key identifying features needed for accurate content classification, eliminating the need to pre-process and store entire message contents
