Abstract

This paper describes a prototype of a software tool implementing an entity resolution method for topic-centered expert identification based on bottom-up mining of online sources. The tool extracts and unifies information extracted from a variety of online sources and subsequently builds a repository of user profiles to be used for technology scouting purposes.
