Author name disambiguation

The author name "Li Li" might refer to a number of people, including the seven listed here.

Author name disambiguation is the process of disambiguation and record linkage applied to the names of individual people. The process could, for example, distinguish individuals with the name "John Smith".

An editor may apply the process to scholarly documents where the goal is to find all mentions of the same author and cluster them together. Authors of scholarly documents often share names which makes it hard to distinguish each author's work. Hence, author name disambiguation aims to find all publications that belong to a given author and distinguish them from publications of other authors who share the same name.

Methods

Considerable research has been conducted into name disambiguation.[1][2][3][4][5] Typical approaches for author name disambiguation rely on information to distinguish between authors, including (but not limited to) information about the authors such as: their name representation, affiliations and email addresses, and information about the publication: such as year of publication, co-authors, and the topic of the paper. This information can be used to train a machine learning classifier to decide whether two author mentions refer to the same author or not.[6] Much research regards name disambiguation as a clustering problem, i.e., partitioning documents into clusters, where each represents an author.[2][7][8] Other research treats it as a classification problem.[9] Some works constructs a document graph and utilizes the graph topology to learn document similarity.[8][10] Recently, several pieces of research[10][11] aim to learn low-dimensional document representations by employing network embedding methods.[12][13]

Applications

Some of the ways in which authorship has been indicated for the same person

There are multiple reasons that cause author names to be ambiguous, among which: individuals may publish under multiple names for a variety of reasons including different transliteration, misspelling, name change due to marriage, or the use of nicknames or middle names and initials.[14]

Motivations for disambiguating individuals include identifying inventors from patents, and researchers across differing publishers, research institutions and time periods.[15] Name disambiguation is also a cornerstone in author-centric academic search and mining systems, such as AMiner (formerly ArnetMiner).[16]

Similar issues

Author name disambiguation is only one record linkage problem in the scholarly data domain. Closely related, and potentially mutually beneficial problems include: organisation (affiliation) disambiguation,[17] as well as conference or publication venue disambiguation, since data publishers often use different names or aliases for these entities.
