Abstract

POI abbreviation matching is one difficult aspect of POI name matching, since Chinese POI abbreviations have Eastern Language specialty and are mostly formed without strict rules. Examinations of existed website that contains POI name matching are made and approaches proposed are analyzed. To catch the special regularities of POI abbreviation, a statistical model consists mainly of Markov Chain is built to simulate the process of POI abbreviation forming. Detailed algorithm, corpus-building instructions and test results was presented in this paper. A future improving direction was also presented as a result of error analyses.
