Web Data Management

Summary: Survey of Web Data Management (WDM) techniques fusing Web-scale structured data (tables, lists, forms), crowdsourced KBs (Wikipedia, DBpedia, YAGO, Freebase), and Web text to extract facts. Shows how cross-dataset fragments enable novel results (schema thesaurus construction) and discusses collaboration implications of Web-scale data sourcing. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
