Ontology-Guided Multi-Agent Extraction of Evaluation Objects from Academic Review Texts: Evidence from Chinese Library and Information Science
Academic reviews, scholarly commentaries, and book reviews serve as sources of evaluative statements about theories, methods, literature, institutions, and policies, providing valuable evidence for scholarly evaluation. Existing scientific entity extraction methods mainly target research articles and are less effective for evaluation objects, which are often abstract, context-dependent, and characterized by ambiguous type boundaries. This study proposes an ontology-guided multi-agent framework for evaluation object extraction. The framework combines candidate discovery, ontology-constrained classification, and domain review. Experimental results show that it achieves a Precision of 90.33%, Recall of 84.55%, Entity-level F1 of 87.34%, Strict Typed F1 of 79.78%, and Type Accuracy of 91.35%, substantially outperforming rule-based and zero-shot baselines. Ablation results indicate that the multi-agent workflow improves recall and stability, while ontology-based boundary constraints enhance fine-grained classification and reduce category confusion. The framework supports the structured utilization of evaluative scholarly texts and provides methodological support for evidence-based research evaluation and STI mining.
