Challenge: Existing systems identify related entities but do not provide features for exploring relations between entities.
Approach: They propose to teach machines to generate definition-like relation descriptions by letting them learn from defining entities.
Outcome: The proposed model can generate definition-like relation descriptions that capture the representative characteristics of entities.
