Construction of a large-scale test set for author disambiguation ?
Author disambiguation resolves same-name author occurrences in the bibliographic data into namesakes. This enables author-centered searches and high-quality social network analysis. As an attempt to promote much research in author disambiguation, KISTI have constructed a new large-scale test set for this field. This article describes its semi-manual creation procedures, characteristics especially in terms of author ambiguities and name diversities. In addition, the baseline performance of author clustering against the test set is provided.
