SXPath - Extending XPath towards Spatial Querying on Web Documents
Summary: SXPath extends XPath 1.0 with spatial primitives (Spatial Axes, Spatial Position Functions) to query both DOM structure and rendered layout, enabling concise information extraction. It defines the Spatial Document Object Model (SDOM), the SXPath language (including the SWF fragment), and demonstrates polynomial-time evaluation with empirical validation.
