Stop Word and Related Problems in Web Interface Integration

Summary: Addresses often-overlooked stop-word and semantic-enrichment issues in Web-interface integration, showing domain dependence and complexity. Provides an approximation algorithm and a framework distinguishing synonymy from hyponymy, validated on 2,300+ labels across 220 interfaces. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
