Entity summarization aims to compute concise summaries for entities in knowledge graphs. Existing datasets and benchmarks are often limited to a few hundred entities and discard graph structure in source knowledge graphs. This limitation is…
Entity Resolution (ER) is a critical data cleaning task for identifying records that refer to the same real-world entity. In the era of Big Data, traditional batch ER is often infeasible due to volume and velocity constraints, necessitating…
Entity resolution (ER) is the task of identifying different representations of the same real-world entities across databases. It is a key step for knowledge base creation and text mining. Recent adaptation of deep learning methods for ER…
Entity resolution, which involves identifying and merging records that refer to the same real-world entity, is a crucial task in areas like Web data integration. This importance is underscored by the presence of numerous duplicated and…
Entity matching is the problem of identifying which records refer to the same real-world entity. It has been actively researched for decades, and a variety of different approaches have been developed. Even today, it remains a challenging…
Entity linking is the task of aligning mentions to corresponding entities in a given knowledge base. Previous studies have highlighted the necessity for entity linking systems to capture the global coherence. However, there are two common…
Rich entity representations are useful for a wide class of problems involving entities. Despite their importance, there is no standardized benchmark that evaluates the overall quality of entity representations. In this work, we propose…
Named Entity Recognition seeks to extract substrings within a text that name real-world objects and to determine their type (for example, whether they refer to persons or organizations). In this survey, we first present an overview of…
Entity matching (EM) is a fundamental task in data integration and analytics, essential for identifying records that refer to the same real-world entity across diverse sources. In practice, datasets often differ widely in structure, format,…
Entity resolution (ER) aims at matching records that refer to the same real-world entity. Although widely studied for the last 50 years, ER still represents a challenging data management problem, and several recent works have started to…
Accurate and efficient entity resolution (ER) is a significant challenge in many data mining and analysis projects requiring integrating and processing massive data collections. It is becoming increasingly important in real-world…
Entity-oriented retrieval assumes that relevant documents exhibit query-relevant entities, yet evaluations report conflicting results. We show this inconsistency stems not from model failure, but from evaluation. On TREC Robust04, we…
Clinical named entity recognition (NER) aims to retrieve important entities within clinical narratives. Recent works have demonstrated that large language models (LLMs) can achieve strong performance in this task. While previous works focus…
Entity alignment (EA) aims to discover the equivalent entities in different knowledge graphs (KGs). It is a pivotal step for integrating KGs to increase knowledge coverage and quality. Recent years have witnessed a rapid increase of EA…
Entity Matching (EM) refers to the problem of determining whether two different data representations refer to the same real-world entity. It has been a long-standing interest of the data management community and many efforts have been paid…
Neural methods for embedding entities are typically extrinsically evaluated on downstream tasks and, more recently, intrinsically using probing tasks. Downstream task-based comparisons are often difficult to interpret due to differences in…
Entity resolution (ER), comprising record linkage and de-duplication, is the process of merging noisy databases in the absence of unique identifiers to remove duplicate entities. One major challenge of analysis with linked data is…
Existing evaluations of entity linking systems often say little about how the system is going to perform for a particular application. There are two fundamental reasons for this. One is that many evaluations only use aggregate measures…
Entity matching (EM) is a challenging problem studied by different communities for over half a century. Algorithmic fairness has also become a timely topic to address machine bias and its societal impacts. Despite extensive research on…
External knowledge,e.g., entities and entity descriptions, can help humans understand texts. Many works have been explored to include external knowledge in the pre-trained models. These methods, generally, design pre-training tasks and…
