Time plays important roles in Web search, because most Web pages contain temporal information and a lot of Web queries are time-related. In this paper, we concentrate on the extraction of the focused time for Web pages, which refers to the most appropriate time associated with Web pages. In partic- ular, two critical issues are deeply studied. The first issue to extract implicit temporal expressions from Web pages, and the second is to determine the fo- cused time among those extracted temporal information. For the first issue, we propose a new dynamic approach to resolve the implicit temporal expressions in Web pages. For the second issue, we present a score model to determine the fo- cused time for Web pages. We conduct experiments on real data sets to measure the performance of our algorithms. The results show that our approach outper- forms the competitor algorithms.
