Finding experts drives successful collaborations and high-quality product development in academic and research domains. To contribute to the expert finding research community, we have developed ExpFinder which is a novel ensemble model for expert finding by integrating an N-gram vector space model (nVSM) and a graph-based model (μCO-HITS). This paper provides descriptions of ExpFinder's architecture, key components, functionalities, and illustrative examples. ExpFinder is an effective and competitive model for expert finding, significantly outperforming a number of expert finding models.
