Querying Wikipedia Documents and Relationships - scientific work about Wikipedia quality published in 2010, written by Huong Thi Cam Nguyen, Thanh Hoang Nguyen, Hoa Dieu Nguyen and Juliana Freire.

Overview

Wikipedia has become an important source of information which is growing very rapidly. However, the existing infrastructure for querying this information is limited and often ignores the inherent structure in the information and links across documents. In this paper, authors present a new approach for querying Wikipedia content that supports a simple, yet expressive query interfaces that allow both keyword and structured queries. A unique feature of their approach is that, besides returning documents that match the queries, it also exploits relationships among documents to return richer, multi-document answers. Authors model Wikipedia as a graph and cast the problem of finding answers for queries as graph search. To guide the answer-search process, authors propose a novel weighting scheme to identify important nodes and edges in the graph. By leveraging the structured information available in infoboxes, their approach supports queries that specify constraints over this structure, and authors propose a new search algorithm to support these queries. Authors evaluate their approach using a representative subset of Wikipedia documents and present results which show that their approach is effective and derives high-quality answers.
