Toponym Resolution in Social Media [PDF]
, 2010 Increasingly user-generated content is being utilised as a source of information, however each individual piece of content tends to contain low levels of information. In addition, such information tends to be informal and imperfect in nature; containing imprecise, subjective, ambiguous expressions. However the content does not have to be interpreted in

Bayesian Estimation of Intensity Surfaces on the Sphere via Needlet Shrinkage and Selection [PDF]
, 2011 This paper describes an approach for Bayesian modeling in spherical datasets. Our method is based upon a recent construction called the needlet, which is a particular form of spherical wavelet with many favorable statistical and computational properties.

Linking early geospatial documents, one place at a time: annotation of geographic documents with Recogito [PDF]
, 2015 Recogito is an open source tool for the semi-automatic annotation of place references in maps and texts. It was developed as part of the Pelagios 3 research project, which aims to build up a comprehensive directory of places referred to in early maps and

Proceedings of the 12th Joint Conference on Lexical and Computational Semantics (*SEM 2023), 2023 Geocoding is the task of converting location mentions in text into structured data that encodes the geospatial semantics. We propose a new architecture for geocoding, GeoNorm. GeoNorm first uses information retrieval techniques to generate a list of candidate entries from the geospatial ontology.

SemEval-2019 Task 12: Toponym Resolution in Scientific Papers [PDF]
Proceedings of the 13th International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation, 2019 We present the SemEval-2019 Task 12 which focuses on toponym resolution in scientific articles. Given an article from PubMed, the task consists of detecting mentions of names of places, or toponyms, and mapping the mentions to their corresponding entries in GeoNames.org, a database of geospatial locations. We proposed three subtasks.

Adaptive context features for toponym resolution in streaming news [PDF]
Proceedings of the 35th international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval, 2012 News sources around the world generate constant streams of information, but effective streaming news retrieval requires an intimate understanding of the geographic content of news. This process of understanding, known as geotagging, consists of first finding words in article text that correspond to location names (toponyms), and second, assigning each ...

Robust Toponym Resolution Based on Surface Statistics
IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems, 2009 Toponyms and other named entities are main issues in unknown word processing problem. Our purpose is to salvage unknown toponyms, not only for avoiding noises but also providing them information of area candidates to where they may belong. Most of previous toponym resolution methods were targeting disambiguation among area candidates, which is caused ...
