Family Matters: Company Relations Extraction from Wikipedia
P. 81–92.
The study described in the paper deals with the extraction of relations between organizations from the Russian Wikipedia. We experiment with two data sources for supervised methods – manual annotations made from scratch and relations from infoboxes with subsequent sentence matching, as well as different feature sets and learning methods – SVM, CRF, and UIMA Ruta. Results show that the automatically obtained training data delivers worse results than manually annotated data, but the former approach is promising due to its scalability. Evaluation of relations extracted from a subset of Wikipedia pages that are mapped to the Russian state company registry proves that external sources can enrich and complement official databases.
