Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to EL for historical texts require substantial training data or rely on domain-specific rules that limit scalability. |
| Approach: | They propose an unsupervised ensemble approach combining a Small Language Model and an LLM for historical EL. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms state-of-the-art models on four established benchmarks in six European languages from the 19th and 20th centuries. |
