Researchers have developed SCRIBES, a reinforcement learning framework designed to extract structured information from semi-structured web content like HTML tables and lists. This method generates reusable extraction scripts by leveraging layout similarity across webpages within the same site as a reward signal, thus avoiding resource-intensive per-page LLM inference. The framework improves by training on synthetic annotations from CommonCrawl data, outperforming existing methods in script quality and enhancing downstream question answering accuracy for models like GPT-4o.
