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. |
