Extraction of Career Profiles from Wikipedia
Firas Dib, Lindberg Simon, Pierre Nugues · Lund University Publications (Lund University) · 2015
In this paper, we describe a system that gathers the work experience of a person from her or his Wikipedia page.We first extract an ontology of profession names from the Wikidata graph.We then parse the Wikipedia pages using a dependency parser and we connect persons to professions through the analysis of parts of speech and dependency relations we extract from text.Setting aside the dates, we computed recall and precision scores on a very limited and preliminary test set for which we could reach a recall of 74% and a precision of 95%, showing our approach is promising.
