Revisiting Taxonomy Induction over Wikipedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2016, written by Amit Gupta, Francesco Piccinno, Mikhail Kozhevnikov, Marius Pasca and Daniele Pighin.

Overview

Guided by multiple heuristics, a unified taxonomy of entities and categories is distilled from the Wikipedia category network. A comprehensive evaluation, based on the analysis of upward generalization paths, demonstrates that the taxonomy supports generalizations which are more than twice as accurate as the state of the art. The taxonomy is available at http://headstaxonomy.com.
