Towards Robust Unsupervised Personal Name Disambiguation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The increasing use of large open-domain document sources is exacerbating the problem of ambiguity in named entities. This paper explores the use of a range of syntactic and semantic features in unsupervised clustering of documents that result from ad hoc queries containing names. From these experiments, we find that the use of robust syntactic and semantic features can significantly improve the state of the art for disambiguation performance for personal names for both Chinese and English.

In this paper we describe our participation in the SIGHAN 2010 Task3 (Person Name Disambiguation) and detail our approaches. Person Name Disambiguation is typically viewed as an unsupervised clustering problem where the aim is to partition a name’s contexts into different clusters, each representing a real world people. The key point of Clustering is the similarity measure of context, which dep...
متن کاملUnsupervised Personal Name Disambiguation
This paper presents a set of algorithms for distinguishing personal names with multiple real referents in text, based on little or no supervision. The approach utilizes an unsupervised clustering technique over a rich feature space of biographic facts, which are automatically extracted via a language-independent bootstrapping process. The induced clustering of named entities are then partitione...
