Exploring Graph Based Approaches for Author Name Disambiguation

Chetanya Rastogi, Prabhat Agarwal, Shreya Singh

In many applications, such as scientific literature management, researcher search, social network analysis and etc, Name Disambiguation (aiming at disambiguating WhoIsWho) has been a challenging problem. In addition, the growth of scientific literature makes the problem more difficult and urgent. Although name disambiguation has been extensively studied in academia and industry, the problem has not been solved well due to the clutter of data and the complexity of the same name scenario. In this work, we aim to explore models that can perform the task of name disambiguation using the network structure that is intrinsic to the problem and present an analysis of the models.
