Knowledge Exploration Using Tables on the Web
Summary: Proposes Knowledge Carousels for knowledge exploration using web tables, with sideways (IS-A) and downward (HAS-A) modalities for entity-seeking queries. Tackles entity-carousel alignment, candidate selection, and descriptive titles; user studies show table-based carousels yield better result sets than baselines.
