Introduces a landmark-and-region synthesis pipeline that narrows extraction to small ROIs derived from nearby invariant strings, then runs lightweight programs on those regions; uses parent hops and sibling hops for HTML regions and a box summary plus a visual DSL for OCR images. Claims production gains: about 2.95 selectors per program versus 8.51 for prior work, saves ~120 maintenance hours and halves annotation bandwidth in one deployment, and outperforms Azure Form Recognizer with as few as 10 training examples.
