New pipeline links Hadith narrator identities across Arabic databases · 2 sources tracked

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a two-phase entity resolution pipeline to link historical narrator identities across disparate Arabic biographical databases. The system first matches narrator names from the Sanadset 650K corpus to the Hawramani Arabic Lexicon, achieving over 51% linkage. Subsequently, it cross-references Hawramani data with the Muslimscholars database using a multi-signal function that combines name similarity, death year proximity, and reliability grades, resulting in a 94.7% linkage rate. This process enables the creation of a comprehensive transmission graph of Islamic Hadith literature, enriched with cross-source biographical metadata, and the release of annotated link corpora and the graph as open resources.

    The transmission chains (sanad) of Islamic Hadith literature encode relationships among tens of thousands of historical narrators whose biographical records are dispersed across independently maintained digital databases that share no common identifier. We present a two-phase ent…
