I4E: Interactive Investigation of Iterative Information Extraction

Summary: I4E enables interactive post-extraction investigation of IIE systems, formalizing explain, diagnose, and repair phases with algorithms. Evaluation on a 500M-document web corpus shows effective post-extraction reasoning and repair with strong user gains. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
