With a Little Help from My Neighbors: Person Name Linking Using the Wikipedia Social Network - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2016, written by Johanna Geiß and Michael Gertz.

Overview

Driven by the popularity of social networks, there has been an increasing interest in employing such networks in the context of named entity linking. In this paper, authors present a novel approach to person name disambiguation and linking that uses a large-scale social network extracted from the English Wikipedia. First, possible candidate matches for an ambiguous person name are determined. With each candidate match, a network substructure is associated. Based on the similarity between these network substructures and the latent network of an ambiguous person name in a document, authors propose an efficient ranking method to resolve the ambiguity. Authors demonstrate the effectiveness of approach, resulting in an overall precision of over 96% for disambiguating person names and linking them to real world entities.
