Abstract
An alumni database is a valuable information source for the development of a university. However, alumni databases tend to be incomplete. It is always possible for phone numbers and home or e-mail addresses to change. In this study, the authors propose an information collection strategy by gathering information spread across the Internet through search engines. The research is focused on the evaluation of efficiency factors during the name disambiguation process. The authors suggest a combination of reduction (Red-UPND) and supervised queries strategies, which improve the efficiency of the disambiguation process to around 67% compared to the baseline unsupervised person name disambiguation (UPND). The experiment results show that the approach fits the case university’s requirements to support an alumni tracer study and to find people automatically, especially for people with ordinary names.
