Abstract

Author disambiguation suffers from the shortage of topical terms to identify authors. This study attempts to augment term-based topical representation of authors with the concept-based one obtained from Wikipedia-based explicit semantic analysis (ESA). Experiments showed that the use of additional ESA concepts improves author-resolving performance by 13.5%.
