چکیده
In this paper we present our system and experiments at the Third Web People Search Workshop (WePS-3) task for clustering web people search documents in English. In our experiments we used a simple approach with three algorithms: Lingo, Hierachical Agglomerative Clustering (HAC), and a 2-step HAC algorithm. We also present the results and initial conclusions in the context of the WePS-3 Task 1 for clustering. We obtained best results with HAC and 2-step HAC algorithms.

A good clustering performance depends on the quality of the distance function used to asses similarity. In this paper we propose a pairwise document coreference model to improve performance over a wordvector similarity approach for the WePS 3 clustering task. We identify a simple criterion which discriminates between highly ambiguous queries, i.e. many small clusters, and balanced queries, i.e....
