Abstract: Desired content, metadata, or both can be isolated from the full content of social media websites having content-rich pages. Achieving this can include obtaining from the content-rich pages a language-independent representation having a hierarchical structure of nodes and then generating a node representation for each node. Feature vectors for the nodes are generated and a label is assigned to each node representation according to a schema. Assignment can occur by executing a trained classification algorithm on the feature vectors. The schema has schema elements and each schema element corresponds to a label. For each schema element, all node representations having matching labels are gathered and then one node representation is elected from among those with matching labels to be assigned to a schema element field in a template. The template can be applied to extract desired content, metadata, or both according to the schema from all the content-rich pages.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for high speed printing, an image of a character is directed onto a charged photoconductive disc so as to cause discharge of an area of the circumferential periphery of the disc corresponding to the character. Toner is applied electrostatically to the discharged area to provide adherence. The disc is moved relative to, and in contact with, a receiver such as a sheet of paper on a roller. The disc is rotated at a constant speed corresponding to a rate of linear translation of the disc relative to the receiver, such that there is no relative movement at the point of contact. The toner adhered to the disc is transferred electrostatically to the receiver at the point of contact, and is thereafter fixed on the receiver by a fixing means which travels with the disc and at a spacing behind the disc.
