1. An apparatus of a computing system, comprising:
a processor; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform acts comprising:
receiving an electronic document comprising a first textual element located at a first position and a second textual element located at a second position;
computing a score of a likelihood that the first textual element represents relevant content in the electronic document based on spatial factors between the first position of the first textual element and the second position of the second textual element; and
outputting the at least one of the first textual element or the second textual element based on the score.
