Core algorithms used and modified in *TableDataExtractor* have originally been developed by Embley et al.
This is the MIPS (*Minimum Indexing Point Search*) algorithm that is used to find the row/column headers
and the data region, as well as algorithms for prefixing header cells. Also, some of the examples in this documentation
are based on examples from Embley et al:

    Embley, D.W., Krishnamoorthy, M.S., Nagy, G., and Seth, S. (2016) Converting heterogeneous statistical tables on the web to searchable databases. *Int. J. Doc. Anal. Recognit.*, *19* (2), 119–138.

Algorithms for duplicating spanning cells and extending headers, that are used in *TableDataExtractor*,
have been developed by Nagy and Seth:

    Nagy, G., and Seth, S. (2017) Table headers: An entrance to the data mine. *Proc. - Int. Conf. Pattern Recognit.*, 4065–4070.

The algorithm for converting `html` files to `Numpy arrays` has been modified from John Rico:
