Efficiently Incorporating User Feedback into Information Extraction and Integration Programs

Summary: Declarative user feedback rules via hlog enable live propagation of corrections in an IE/II program P. Augmented P iteratively absorbs feedback (input/intermediate/output) with optimization and real-data experiments, showing practical promise. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
