A unified ontology-based web page model for improving accessibility

Abstract

Fast technological advancements and little compliance with accessibility standards by Web page authors pose serious obstacles to the Web experience of the blind user. We propose a unified Web document model that enables us to create a richer browsing experience and improved navigability for blind users. The model provides an integrated view on all aspects of a Web page and is leveraged to create a multi-axial user interface. © 2010 Copyright is held by the author/owner(s).
