Zusammenfassung:A method, an apparatus and an article of manufacture for mapping authors across multiple forums. The method includes creating a database that contains publicly observable information pertaining to multiple authors from multiple forums, generating a mapping between at least a first one of the authors from one of the forums and at least a second one of the authors from another of the forums in the database based on a comparison of structured information, unstructured user generated content information and network information, and generating a score of mapping between the first and the second authors by considering a weighted sum of the number of times the structured information, the unstructured user generated content information and the network information match between the first and the second authors.
