Automatic Partitioning of Web Pages Using Clustering

This paper introduces a method for automatically partitioning richly-formatted electronic documents. An automatic partitioning system has many potential uses, but we focus here on one: dividing web content into fragments small enough to be delivered to and rendered on a mobile phone or PDA. The segmentation algorithm is analyzed from a theoretical and an empirical basis, with a suite of measurements.
