Most NLP approaches to entity linking and coreference resolution focus on retrieving similar mentions using sparse or dense text representations. The common "Wikification" task, for instance, retrieves candidate Wikipedia articles for each…
Scholars have often relied on name initials to resolve name ambiguities in large-scale coauthorship network research. This approach bears the risk of incorrectly merging or splitting author identities. The use of initial-based…
A new method for visualizing the relatedness of scientific areas is developed that is based on measuring the overlap of researchers between areas. It is found that closely related areas have a high propensity to share a larger number of…
Many unsupervised domain adaptive (UDA) person re-identification (ReID) approaches combine clustering-based pseudo-label prediction with feature fine-tuning. However, because of domain gap, the pseudo-labels are not always reliable and…
A recurrent neural network that has been trained to separately model the language of several documents by unknown authors is used to measure similarity between the documents. It is able to find clues of common authorship even when the…
In this work, we introduce a novel method for entity resolution author disambiguation in bibliographic networks. Such a method is based on a 2-steps network traversal using topological similarity measures for rating candidate nodes.…
National exercises for the evaluation of research activity by universities are becoming regular practice in ever more countries. These exercises have mainly been conducted through the application of peer-review methods. Bibliometrics has…
We adapt the Higher Criticism (HC) goodness-of-fit test to measure the closeness between word-frequency tables. We apply this measure to authorship attribution challenges, where the goal is to identify the author of a document using other…
An author name disambiguation (AND) algorithm identifies a unique author entity record from all similar or same publication records in scholarly or similar databases. Typically, a clustering method is used that requires calculation of…
The task of scholar name disambiguation is crucial in various real-world scenarios, including bibliometric-based candidate evaluation for awards, application material anti-fraud measures, and more. Despite significant advancements, current…
Author disambiguation arises when different authors share the same name, which is a critical task in digital libraries, such as DBLP, CiteULike, CiteSeerX, etc. While the state-of-the-art methods have developed various paper embedding-based…
Name disambiguation -- a fundamental problem in online academic systems -- is now facing greater challenges with the increasing growth of research papers. For example, on AMiner, an online academic search platform, about 10% of names own…
We introduce a family of paper and author similarity measures based on the concept that papers are more similar if they are more likely to be retrieved during a literature search following backward and forward citations. Since this browsing…
While deep face recognition has benefited significantly from large-scale labeled data, current research is focused on leveraging unlabeled data to further boost performance, reducing the cost of human annotation. Prior work has mostly been…
Author name ambiguity remains a critical open problem in digital libraries due to synonymy and homonymy of names. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to link author names to their real-world entities by relying on their co-authorship…
Racial disparity in academia is a widely acknowledged problem. The quantitative understanding of racial based systemic inequalities is an important step towards a more equitable research system. However, because of the lack of robust…
In the academic world, the number of scientists grows every year and so does the number of authors sharing the same names. Consequently, it challenging to assign newly published papers to their respective authors. Therefore, Author Name…
Many features of complex systems can now be unveiled by applying statistical physics methods to treat them as social networks. The power of the analysis may be limited, however, by the presence of ambiguity in names, e.g., caused by…
In real-world, our DNA is unique but many people share names. This phenomenon often causes erroneous aggregation of documents of multiple persons who are namesake of one another. Such mistakes deteriorate the performance of document…
Author name ambiguity decreases the quality and reliability of information retrieved from digital libraries. Existing methods have tried to solve this problem by predefining a feature set based on expert's knowledge for a specific dataset.…
