abstract = {This paper presents a large-scale system for the
recognition and semantic disambiguation of
named entities based on information extracted
from a large encyclopedic collection and Web
search results. It describes in detail the disambiguation
paradigm employed and the information
extraction process from Wikipedia. Through a
process of maximizing the agreement between the
contextual information extracted from Wikipedia
and the context of a document, as well as the
agreement among the category tags associated
with the candidate entities, the implemented system
shows high disambiguation accuracy on both
news stories and Wikipedia articles.},
