Abstract

In recent years of Natural Language Processing research, the name ambiguity problem remains unresolved while retrieving the information of author names from bibliographic citations in a digital library system. In this paper, a feature ranking model is investigated that resolve the ambiguity problem with Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). The AHP procedure prioritizes and assigns the weights for certain criteria which forms a judgemental matrix called pairwise comparison matrix. The result of the AHP analysis aims to get the preprocessing level using Levenshtein Distance. Finally, the AHP helps to find the co-author criteria as the highest priority than the other criteria taken from the digital library data set.
