    Este artículo presenta un método completamente automático que resuelve la desambiguación léxica de nombres calculando la densidad conceptual de cada uno de los sentidos del nombre a desambiguar. La evaluación del método se ha realizado sobre el corpus SemCor con un contexto de sólo dos nombres, obteniendo una precisión de 81.5% y un recall de 60.25%.Palabras clave: desambiguación léxica de nombres, densidad conceptual.This article presents a completely automatic method that solves the lexical disambiguation of names by calculating the conceptual density of each of the senses of the name to be disambiguated.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
