Problems Identified (5)

Incomplete Entity Linker Evaluation: Existing evaluations of table entity linkers are incomplete because they focus on specific applications and aggregated output metrics rather than component effectiveness and scalability.

Overlooked Candidate Generation: Candidate generation is a crucial entity linking step that is commonly overlooked.

Entity Linker Irreproducibility: Many entity linkers are difficult to reproduce due to lack of open source code or reliance on irreproducible endpoints and datasets.

Proposed Solutions (4)

Component-Level Linker Evaluation: The paper provides an in-depth analysis and taxonomy of state-of-the-art entity linkers by evaluating the quality and scalability of individual entity linking components.

Multi-Benchmark KG Linker Evaluation: The paper evaluates entity linkers on four existing entity linking benchmarks using DBpedia and Wikidata.
