Development of HTMLtoVTML Conversion Agent using Embedded Text and Priori Structural Knowledge  

Jang, Young-Gun (청주대학교 컴퓨터정보공학과)
Abstract
This paper presents a new agent which convert HTML contents to VXML contents automatically for voice services via web. In this paper, I propose an interactive hybrid sequential contents selection method to select desired contents fast and robustly from known web pages. It uses real time structural features as well as embedded text and/or priori structural knowledge such as link symbol position. To verify its effectiveness, a full agent system is implemented and tested. The method reflects user intention more accurately than conventional selections using structural features and is more robust to variations of HTML programming techniques. The agent is fast and has less computational burden than methods use XML or XHTML conversion as intermediate stage.
