TEGRA: Table Extraction by Global Record Alignment

Summary: TEGRA extracts multi-column relational tables from list-style web content, not only HTML tables. It quantifies column coherence with a 100M-table web corpus and casts extraction as a fixed-column token assignment that maximizes intra-column coherence via a 2-approximation (A*-like) algorithm; achieves 90%+ F-measure on web and enterprise data.
