Corpus Maps via Linked Entities

Entity Linking: Navigating a corpus through a map of its entities

Pablo Ruiz will address the concept of Entity Linking. In natural language processing, entity linking is the task of determining the identity of entities mentioned in text. It includes named entity recognition (NER) and the identification of their reference (via links to DBpedia or other structured databases). The bases of entity linking will be presented along with the demonstration of a platform combining different entity linking systems so as to obtain an efficient and robust coverage across text genres and application domains. Lastly, the production of maps from the result of the entity linking analysis will be presented.
