We propose yet another entity linking model (YELM) which links words to entities instead of spans. This overcomes any difficulties associated with the selection of good candidate mention spans and makes the joint training of mention…

We present a simple yet effective approach for linking entities in queries. The key idea is to search sentences similar to a query from Wikipedia articles and directly use the human-annotated entities in the similar sentences as candidate…

In our continuously evolving world, entities change over time and new, previously non-existing or unknown, entities appear. We study how this evolutionary scenario impacts the performance on a well established entity linking (EL) task. For…
