Abstract :
The Wang Notation Tool (WNT) is a semi-automatic, interactive tool that converts tables to Wang notation - a layout independent representation of tables where all relationships between cells are recorded without relying on the physical structure of tables. WNT requires minimal interaction to select categories from which it deduces relationships. However, if WNT is incorrect, user correction is available to generate correct Wang notation.
