Extracting Genealogical Networks of Linked Data from Biographical Texts

摘要

This paper presents the idea and our work of extracting and reassembling a genealogical network automatically from a collection of biographies. The network can be used as a tool for network analysis of historical persons. The data has been published as Linked Data and as an interactive online service as part of the in-use data service and semantic portal BiographySampo—Finnish Biographies on the Semantic Web.
