Topic Modeling for Wikipedia Link Disambiguation - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2014, written by Bradley Skaggs and Lise Getoor.

Overview

Many articles in the online encyclopedia Wikipedia have hyperlinks to ambiguous article titles; these ambiguous links should be replaced with links to unambiguous articles, a process known as disambiguation. Authors propose a novel statistical topic model based on link text, which authors refer to as the Link Text Topic Model (LTTM), that authors use to suggest new link targets for ambiguous links. To evaluate model, authors describe a method for extracting ground truth for this link disambiguation task from edits made to Wikipedia in a specific time period. Authors use this ground truth to demonstrate the superiority of LTTM over other existing link- and content-based approaches to disambiguating links in Wikipedia. Finally, authors build a web service that uses LTTM to make suggestions to human editors wanting to fix ambiguous links in Wikipedia.
