It describes a significant new step in the development of a widely-used open-source digital library system, Greenstone, which has evolved over many years.
The approach is illustrated with 16 name datasets with citations collected from the DBLP database bibliography and author home pages and shows that name disambiguation can be achieved using these citation attributes.
A rule-based place name disambiguation method and a place name assignment method capable of assigning place names to web page segments have also been proposed.
