The traditional entity extraction problem lies in the ability of extracting named entities from plain text using natural language processing techniques and intensive training from large document collections. Examples of named entities…
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…
Traditional information retrieval systems represent documents and queries by keyword sets. However, the content of a document or a query is mainly defined by both keywords and named entities occurring in it. Named entities have ontological…
Named entities (NE) are objects that are referred to by names such as people, organizations and locations. Named entities and keywords are important to the meaning of a document. We propose a generalized vector space model that combines…
This paper explores entity embedding effectiveness in ad-hoc entity retrieval, which introduces distributed representation of entities into entity retrieval. The knowledge graph contains lots of knowledge and models entity semantic…
Purely keyword-based text search is not satisfactory because named entities and WordNet words are also important elements to define the content of a document or a query in which they occur. Named entities have ontological features, namely,…
Starting from an unsolved problem of information retrieval this paper presents an ontology-based model for indexing and retrieval. The model combines the methods and experiences of cognitive-to-interpret indexing languages with the…
Today, the practice of returning entities from a knowledge base in response to search queries has become widespread. One of the distinctive characteristics of entities is that they are typed, i.e., assigned to some hierarchically organized…
In this paper we present a generic framework for ontology-based information retrieval. We focus on the recognition of semantic information extracted from data sources and the mapping of this knowledge into ontology. In order to achieve more…
We present an ensemble approach for categorizing search query entities in the recruitment domain. Understanding the types of entities expressed in a search query (Company, Skill, Job Title, etc.) enables more intelligent information…
When we consider our CV, it is full of entities that we are or were associated with and that define us in some way(s). Such entities include where we studied, where we worked, who we collaborated with on a project or on a paper etc.…
In this research, we improve upon the current state of the art in entity retrieval by re-ranking the result list using graph embeddings. The paper shows that graph embeddings are useful for entity-oriented search tasks. We demonstrate…
Entity Linking aims to link entity mentions in texts to knowledge bases, and neural models have achieved recent success in this task. However, most existing methods rely on local contexts to resolve entities independently, which may usually…
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 linking (EL) is the task of linking entity mentions in a document to referent entities in a knowledge base (KB). Many previous studies focus on Wikipedia-derived KBs. There is little work on EL over Wikidata, even though it is the…
A generalized ensemble model (gEnM) for document ranking is proposed in this paper. The gEnM linearly combines basis document retrieval models and tries to retrieve relevant documents at high positions. In order to obtain the optimal linear…
Named entities have been considered and combined with keywords to enhance information retrieval performance. However, there is not yet a formal and complete model that takes into account entity names, classes, and identifiers together. Our…
While entity-oriented neural IR models have advanced significantly, they often overlook a key nuance: the varying degrees of influence individual entities within a document have on its overall relevance. Addressing this gap, we present…
We focus on two research issues in entity search: scoring a document or snippet that potentially supports a candidate entity, and aggregating scores from different snippets into an entity score. Proximity scoring has been studied in IR…
The similarity between the question and indexed documents is a crucial factor in document retrieval for retrieval-augmented question answering. Although this is typically the only method for obtaining the relevant documents, it is not the…
