• Abstract: In this paper, a new approach called HDNA (HTML DNA) is introduced for analyzing and comparing Document Object Model (DOM) trees in order to detect differences in HTML pages. This method assigns an identifier to each HTML page based on its structure, which proves to be particularly useful for detecting variations caused by server-side updates, user interactions or potential security risks. The process involves preprocessing the HTML content generating a DOM tree and calculating the disparities between two or more trees. By assigning weights to the nodes valuable insights about their hierarchical importance are obtained. The effectiveness of the HDNA approach has been demonstrated in identifying changes in DOM trees even when dynamically generated content is involved. Not does this method benefit web developers, testers, and security analysts by offering a deeper understanding of how web pages evolve. It also helps ensure the functionality and performance of web applications. Additionally, it enables detection and response to vulnerabilities that may arise from modifications in DOM structures. As the web ecosystem continues to evolve HDNA proves to be a tool, for individuals engaged in web development, testing, or security analysis.

  Current models often struggle with efficient navigation and action execution due to limited visibility and understanding of web structures. Our proposed R2D2 framework addresses these challenges by integrating two paradigms: Remember and Reflect. Our findings suggest that a combination of memory-enhanced navigation and reflective learning promisingly advances the capabilities of web agents.

  Web scraping is a powerful technique that extracts data from websites, enabling automated data collection, enhancing data analysis capabilities, and minimizing manual data entry efforts. Existing methods, wrappers-based methods suffer from limited adaptability and scalability when faced with a new website. We introduce the paradigm of generating web scrapers with large language models (LLMs) and propose AutoScraper, a two-stage framework that can handle diverse and changing web environments more efficiently.

  We propose to contextualize HTML elements through their "dual views" in webpage screenshots. We build upon the insight -- web developers tend to arrange task-related elements nearby on webpages to enhance user experiences. The resulting representations of HTML elements are more informative for the agent to take action.

Specifically, we exploit poison-only backdoor attacks ($e.g.$, BadNets) for dataset watermarking and design a hypothesis-test-guided method for dataset verification.
