Abstract

In this paper we describe our participation in the contributed task at ACL Special workshop 2012. We contribute to the goal of enriching the textual content of ACL Anthology by identifying the citation contexts in a paper and linking them to their corresponding references in the bibliography section. We use Parscit, to process the Bibliography of each paper. Pattern matching heuristics are then used to connect the citations with their references. Furthermore, we prepared a small evaluation dataset, to test the efficiency of our method. We achieved 95% precision and 80% recall on this dataset.
