Adaptive Geoparsing Method for Toponym Recognition and Resolution in Unstructured Text [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The automatic extraction of geospatial information is an important aspect of data mining. Computer systems capable of discovering geographic information from natural language involve a complex process called geoparsing, which includes two important tasks:

A pragmatic guide to geoparsing evaluation: Toponyms, Named Entity Recognition and pragmatics. [PDF]

open access: yesLang Resour Eval, 2020
AbstractEmpirical methods in geoparsing have thus far lacked a standard evaluation framework describing the task, metrics and data used to compare state-of-the-art systems. Evaluation is further made inconsistent, even unrepresentative of real world usage by the lack of distinction between thedifferent types of toponyms, which necessitates new ...

Extracting locations from sport and exercise-related social media messages using a neural network-based bilingual toponym recognition model

open access: yesJournal of Spatial Information Science, 2022
Sport and exercise contribute to health and well-being in cities. While previous research has mainly focused on activities at specific locations such as sport facilities, "informal sport" that occur at arbitrary locations across the city have been ...
