This provides a simple and efficient tool for researchers and practitioners in natural language processing, though it is incremental as it builds on existing entity linking methods.
The authors tackled the problem of entity linking by proposing a lightweight system trained solely on Wikidata, achieving an easily reproducible baseline for comparison.
We propose a simple Named Entity Linking system that can be trained from Wikidata only. This demonstrates the strengths and weaknesses of this data source for this task and provides an easily reproducible baseline to compare other systems against. Our model is lightweight to train, to run and to keep synchronous with Wikidata in real time.
