Improving Few-Shot Domain Transfer for Named Entity Disambiguation with Pattern Exploitation (2022.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Named entity disambiguation is a critical subtask of entity linking . a model can be trained on a domain, but it needs to be adapted to the domain . |
| Approach: | They propose to reformulate named entity disambiguation as a masked language modeling problem. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves on a mental health news dataset without sacrifices in accuracy. |

| Challenge: | a lack of research on the ability to search through databases of personal and organization name is hindering this area . specialized indexing methods which understand the structure of names are essential to efficient performance. |
| Approach: | They propose a neural solution which provides a 12% performance gain over baselines . they propose specialized indexing methods which understand the structure of names . |
| Outcome: | The proposed solution shows up to 12% performance gain over baselines . the proposed solution is compared against a similar dataset from a different dataset . |
