Deep Learning for Toponym Resolution: Geocoding Based on Pairs of Toponyms [PDF]
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2021 Geocoding aims to assign unambiguous locations (i.e., geographic coordinates) to place names (i.e., toponyms) referenced within documents (e.g., within spreadsheet tables or textual paragraphs).

A Novel Deep Learning Approach Using Contextual Embeddings for Toponym Resolution [PDF]
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2021 This article describes a novel approach for toponym resolution with deep neural networks. The proposed approach does not involve matching references in the text against entries in a gazetteer, instead directly predicting geo-spatial coordinates. Multiple

A Dataset for Toponym Resolution in Nineteenth-Century English Newspapers
Journal of Open Humanities Data, 2022 We present a new dataset for the task of toponym resolution in digitized historical newspapers in English. It consists of 343 annotated articles from newspapers based in four different locations in England (Manchester, Ashton-under-Lyne, Poole and ...

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

MINING INFLUENTIAL TERMS FOR TOPONYM RECOGNITION AND RESOLUTION
Revista Brasileira de Cartografia, 2018 The detection of toponyms present in text has appeared as a useful resource for many diff erent applications, such as for social network analysers and for geographic search engines. The variety of ambiguities present in the geoparsing process represents

How can voting mechanisms improve the robustness and generalizability of toponym disambiguation?
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2023 Natural language texts, such as tweets and news, contain a vast amount of geospatial information, which can be extracted by first recognizing toponyms in texts (toponym recognition) and then identifying their geospatial representations (toponym ...

A Coherent Unsupervised Model for Toponym Resolution [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2018 World Wide Web Conference on World Wide Web - WWW '18, 2018 Toponym Resolution, the task of assigning a location mention in a document to a geographic referent (i.e., latitude/longitude), plays a pivotal role in analyzing location-aware content. However, the ambiguities of natural language and a huge number of possible interpretations for toponyms constitute insurmountable hurdles for this task.

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020 Geoparser is a fundamental component of a Geographic Information Retrieval (GIR) geoparser, which performs toponym recognition, disambiguation, and geographic coordinate resolution from unstructured text domain. However, geoparsing of news articles which
