Abstract: Information extraction is systematic process of extracting structured information from documents which has both unstructured and semi structured data set. Data available over the web is unstructured which is processed and delivered that may be challenging due to massive data over web. Bigdata analytics approach is used in the computation field where massive data is managed and processed as information. Data from various sources like industries, institutes are processed using algorithms in efficient means employing web of things or Internet of things used to mine such a large data. Bio inspired algorithms have evolved from application of heuristic approaches to meta-heuristic and hyper-heuristic methodologies. Bio inspired techniques are categorized into human inspired algorithms, Swarm Intelligence algorithms, evolutionary algorithms and ecology based algorithms. Genetic algorithms are purely heuristic in nature and are employed for computation and extracting information and from big data. This improves the computation speed effectively for extracting web related information as evolutionary algorithm resolves information extraction problems. The Ant colony and Particle Swarm Intelligence algorithms are of meta-heuristic in nature. The Cuckoo search, Artificial Bee Colony, Firefly algorithm and Bat algorithms are of hyper heuristic in nature i.e., they employ a combination of methods. Web information extraction using bio inspired concepts and genetic operators increases efficiency, capability to search particular information in massive data in web. Some of the tools that are available for data extraction and mining are DataMelt, Apache Mahout, Weka, Orange and Rapid Miner for enhancing web data extraction efficiency. This survey on bio inspired methodologies can be extended to parameter tuning and controlling is another big strategy that can be implemented, in addition to convergence speed up.
