ABSTRACT
The key issue of person name disambiguation is to discover different namesakes in massive web documents rather than simply cluster documents by using textual features. In this paper, we describe a novel person name disambiguation method based on social networks to effectively identify namesakes. The social network snippets in each document are extracted. Then, the namesakes are identified via splicing the social networks of each namesake by using the snippets as a bipartite graph. Experimental results show that our method achieves better result than the top performance of WePS-2 in identifying different namesakes.

A Graph-based Approach to Person Name Disambiguation in Web
Special Section on Workshop on Information Technology and Systems (WITS) 2017This article presents a name disambiguation approach to resolve ambiguities between person names and group web pages according to the individuals they refer to. The proposed approach exploits two important sources of entity-centric semantic information ...
A Novel Ontology-Based Approach of Chinese Person Name Disambiguation
SKG '12: Proceedings of the 2012 Eighth International Conference on Semantics, Knowledge and GridsIt is very common that various people share same name or a person has various names, which causes person name ambiguities. Existing methods group documents containing person names into various clusters and each cluster refers to an individual, while ...
Person name disambiguation in web pages using social network, compound words and latent topics
PAKDD'08: Proceedings of the 12th Pacific-Asia conference on Advances in knowledge discovery and data miningThe World Wide Web (WWW) provides much information about persons, and in recent years WWW search engines have been commonly used for learning about persons. However, many persons have the same name and that ambiguity typically causes the search results ...
