MWPD 2020 is the first edition of the Semantic Web Challenge on Mining the
Web of HTML-embedded Product Data, successfully collocated with the 19th
International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC): https://ir-ischool-uos.
github.io/mwpd. The purpose of this event is to promote research on mining
product information on the Web, and the usage of structured data (e.g., HTML
embedded data, microdata) in such tasks. The event organises two shared tasks:
product matching and product classification, with benchmarking datasets and
tools produced for reuse. This volume describes these tasks and participating
systems in details, and includes one event overview paper, and six participant
papers.
