How to distinguish between two Different Named Entities of same name?

I have few articles, in which I am taking out name using NER Model (Named Entity Recognition). Since NER is classifying into four categories ( PERSON, LOCATION, ORGANISATION, MISCELLANEOUS ). Now I having two people of same name. How will I go about distinguishing between them?
Kindly direct me towards some research available on this problem, if possible.

Solution

  • The task you need is called Entity Linking, it is a harder problem than Named Entity Recognition.

    A good way to start research on this problem is the ACL anthology.
