| Abstract | Searching for people on the Web is one of the most common query types submitted to Web search engines today. However, when a person name is queried, the returned Webpages often contain documents related to several distinct namesakes who have the queried name. The task of disambiguating and finding the Webpages related to the specific person of interest is left to the user. Many Web People Search (WePS) approaches have been developed recently that attempt to automate this disambiguation process. Nevertheless, the disambiguation quality of these techniques leaves major room for improvement. In this article, we present a new WePS approach. It is based on issuing additional auxiliary queries to the Web to gain additional knowledge about the Webpages that need to be disambiguated. Thus, the approach uses the Web as an external data source by issuing queries to collect co-occurrence statistics. These statistics are used to assess the overlap of the contextual entities extracted from the Webpages. The article also proposes a methodology to make this Web querying technique efficient. Further, the article proposes an approach that is capable of combining various types of disambiguating information, including other common types of similarities, by applying a correlation clustering approach with after-clustering of singleton clusters. These properties allow the framework to get an advantage in terms of result quality over other state-of-the-art WePS techniques. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
