In citation analysis, author names are often used as the unit of analysis and some authors are indexed under the same name in bibliographic databases where the citation counts are obtained from. There are many techniques for author name disambiguation, using supervised, unsupervised, or semisupervised learning algorithms. Unsupervised approach uses machine learning algorithms to extract necessary bibliographic information from large-scale databases and digital libraries, while supervised approaches use manually built training datasets for clustering author groups for combining them with learning algorithms for author name disambiguation. The study examines various techniques for author name disambiguation in the hope for finding an aid to improve the precision of citation counts in citation analysis, as well as for better results in information retrieval.

본 연구에서는 저자명 모호성 해소를 위해 토픽모델링 기법을 사용하여 저자명을 식별 하였다. 기존의 토픽모델링은 용어 자질만을 고려하였지만 본 연구에서는 제 3의 메타데이터 자질을 활용하여 ACT(Author-Conference Topic Model) 모델과 DMR(Dirichlet-multinomial Regression) 토픽모델링을 대상으로 저자명 식별 성능을 평가, 비교하였다. 또한 수작업으로 저자 식별 작업을 한 데이터셋을 기반으로 저자 당 논문 수와 토픽 수에 차이를 두고 연구를 진행하였다. 그 결과 저자명 식별에 있어 ACT 모델보다 DMR 토픽모델링의 성능이 더 우수한 것을 알 수 있었다.

The diffusion of the internet, the advancement of ICT technology, and digital diffusion have facilitated the streamlining and acceleration of scholarly communication and speeding up research, and the paradigm of scholarly information dissemination is changing. This study introduces the ORCID, a unique author identifier, and examines the ORCID organization's activities, the advantages given to researchers and research institutes, and the membership status. In addition, this paper examines adoptions and utilizations of ORCID in major countries including USA, UK, Italy, and China. Based on this, this paper suggests the necessary considerations for utilizing ORCID in terms of governance, system elements, policy and institutional aspects in an effort to identify authors at national level.

As the number of scientific and technical contents increases, services that support efficient search of scientific and technical contents are required. When an author's affiliation is used as a keyword, not only the contents produced by the affiliation can be searched, but also the identification rate of the search result using the author and the term as keyword can be improved. Because of the ambiguity and vagueness of the data used as a search keyword, the search result may include false negative or false positive. However, the previous research on the control through identification of the search keyword is mainly focused on the author data and terminology data. In this paper, we propose the algorithm to identify affiliations and experiment with show the experiment with scientific and technological contents held by the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information.

A name is a key feature for distinguishing people, but we often fail to discriminate people because an author may have multiple names or multiple authors may share the same name. Such name ambiguity problems affect the performance of document retrieval, web search and database integration. Especially, in bibliography information, a number of errors may be included since there are different authors with the same name or an author name may be misspelled or represented with an abbreviation. For solving these problems, it is necessary to disambiguate the names inputted into the database. In this paper, we propose a method to solve the name ambiguity by using social networks constructed based on the relations between authors. We evaluated the effectiveness of the proposed system based on DBLP data that offer computer science bibliographic information.
