Neural entity linking: A survey of models based on deep learning

Abstract: This survey presents a comprehensive description of recent neural entity linking (EL) systems developed since 2015 as a result of the “deep learning revolution” in natural language processing. Its goal is to systemize design features of neural entity linking systems and compare their performance to the remarkable classic methods on common benchmarks. This work distills a generic architecture of a neural EL system and discusses its components, such as candidate generation, mention-context encoding, and entity r… Show more

“…We analyse different recent and older surveys on EL and highlight specific areas which are not covered as well as our survey's novelties (see also Section 8). While some very recent surveys exist [2,80,100], they do not consider the different underlying Knowledge Graphs as a significant factor affecting the performance of EL approaches. Furthermore, barely any approaches included in other surveys are working on Wikidata and take the particular characteristics of Wikidata into account (see Section 7).…”

“…The extensive survey by Sevgili et al [100] is giving an overview of all neural approaches from 2015 to 2020. It compares 30 different approaches on nine different datasets.…”

“…This generally involves defining a similarity measure between a mention and a candidate entity, as well as some criterion that promotes the coherence of entities across multiple mentions (e.g., to ensure that the mention "Tesla" is not linked to the inventor if the rest of the document is about the car manufacturer). While older approaches generally used ad hoc measures of "semantic relatedness" and the like [93], more recent work often uses deep neural models to obtain vector representations of mentions (including their context) and entities [94,95]. Alternatively, some studies emphasize simple and fast-to-compute methods suitable for very large-scale wikification.…”

“…Before focusing on specific relevant methods found in the literature for each of these components, and for the sake of completeness, we point the reader towards [18,19,1], where the first two surveys comprehensively review EL methods based on Deep Learning, while the latter presents an overview of recent advances in tasks for lifting Natural Language texts to KGs.…”
