Abstract

In this paper, we propose a method for name disambiguation For a given set of names and documents we cluster the documents and map each cluster to the appropriate name The proposed method incorporates an unsupervised metric for semantic similarity computation and a computationally low-cost clustering algorithm We experimented with the data used in Web People Search Task of SemEval-2007, in which 16 different teams were participated The proposed system has an equal performance compared to the officially best system.
