CORDER (COmmunity Relation Discovery by named Entity Recognition) is an un-supervised machine learning algorithm that exploits named entity recognition and co-occurrence data to associate individuals in a community with their expertise and associates. CORDER discovers relations from the Web pages of the community. Its approach is based on co-occurrences of NEs and the distances between them. For a given NE, there are a number of co-occurring NEs. We assume that NEs that are closely related to each other tend to appear together more often and closer to each other in Web pages. We calculate a relation strength for each co-occurring NE based on its co-occurrences and distances from the given NE. The co-occurring NEs are ranked by their relation strengths.
