[Corpora-List] Quotable Statistics on Unstructured Data on the WWW

[Leon Derczynski]

Dear Daniel,

There is an active "Data Extraction" community who among other things often
work on extracting data from the web that's not encoded linguistically but
in other forms (e.g. in web tables, visually in document layout, in
semantic markup) - they may have evidence that helps answer your query. I
know of two workshops on this work that could provide helpful starting
points:

http://diadem.cs.ox.ac.uk/oxford13/
http://diadem.cs.ox.ac.uk/deos14/

Of course, one perhaps needs to define what data is and how you measure "a
data" before you can talk about the percentage of data in a given format -
but that's another issue!

All the best,


Leon
