Fine-Grained Evaluation for Entity Linking (D19-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Entity Linking (EL) is an Information Extraction task that identifies entity mentions in a text corpus and associates them with an unambiguous identifier in KBs such as Wikipedia, BabelNet, DBpedia, Wikidata and YAGO.
Approach: They propose a fine-grained categorization of different types of entity mentions and links and propose 'fuzzy recall' metric to address the lack of consensus and compare a selection of online EL systems.
Outcome: The proposed task offers a bridge between unstructured text and structured KBs, where EL has applications for semantic search, document classification, relation extraction, and more.
LNN-EL: A Neuro-Symbolic Approach to Short-text Entity Linking (2021.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing work deals with EL in the context of longer text, such as a sentence.

Generative Biomedical Entity Linking via Knowledge Base-Guided Pre-training and Synonyms-Aware Fine-tuning (2022.naacl-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Generative methods for biomedical entity linking (EL) use synonyms knowledge from knowledge bases (KB) this is not trivial to inject into a generative method, but it is cost-effective.
Approach: They propose to inject synonyms knowledge into a generative model of biomedical EL by constructing synthetic samples with synonyms and definitions from KB and requiring the model to recover concept names.
Outcome: The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art results on several biomedical EL tasks without candidate selection.

Entity Linking in the Job Market Domain (2024.findings-eacl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: In Natural Language Processing, entity linking (EL) has centered around Wikipedia, but yet remains underexplored for the job market domain.
Approach: They propose to use a bi-encoder and an autoregressive model to link fine-grained span-level skill mentions to a specific taxonomy entry to quantify labor market demands.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms GENRE in strict evaluation, but performs better in loose evaluation.
