news-crawler-LM: A Small Long-Context Model For High-Quality News Crawling

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.21284v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Extracting structured content from news pages remains challenging due to heterogeneous HTML layouts, inconsistent markup, and substantial boilerplate such as navigation elements and advertisements. Rule-based news crawlers can achieve high extraction accuracy by encoding site-specific structure, but require manual configuration in order to generalize to new publishers. Large language models provide a more flexible alternative by reducing the need for handcrafted rules, but their high computational cost limits practical deployment. In this paper, we introduce news-crawler-LM, a small long-context language model fine-tuned on high-quality, human-validated extractions from the Fundus news-crawling library. Our model converts raw HTML into plaint
