Abstract
A task system and method are provided. The system provides an automated approach for task creation, maintenance and/or execution. The system includes a browser that receives search results and at least one task associated with a query from a search engine. The system further includes a browser helper object that binds to the browser at runtime. The browser helper object provides information associated with a user'"'"'s action with respect to the search results and/or at least one task. The information can be employed as feedback to update model(s) (e.g., query classification model(s) and/or slot-filling model(s)) of a semantic reasoning component that retrieves task based, at least in part, upon user query(ies).

15. A task extractor, comprising:
-
a crawler that crawls at least one web page under a given seed website and stores them into a data store;
a form filter that.extracts a form from data stored in the data store;
a parser that extracts structured information of the form extracted by the form filter;
