In particular our work has explored the use of supervised classifiers with the objective of learning implicit relations which cannot be found with similarity or pattern based search methods that rely only on explicit information. Skills, names of professions and degrees, among other examples, are expressed in different languages, showing high variation and the use of ad-hoc resources to trace the relations is very costly. This implicit information is unveiled when a candidate applies for a job and therefore it is information that can be used for learning a model to predict new cases. The results of our experiments, which combine different clustering, classification and ranking methods, show the validity of the approach.application/pdfeng© ACL, Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Licenseinfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjectMultilingual dataE-recruitingLDA clustering methodsRanking methodsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
