Using Embeddings for Both Entity Recognition and Linking in Tweets

Year: 2016
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: The paper describes our submissions to the task on Named Entity rEcognition and Linking in Italian Tweets (NEEL-IT) at Evalita 2016. Our approach relies on a technique of Named Entity tagging that exploits both character-level and word-level embeddings. Character-based embeddings allow learning the idiosyncrasies of the language used in tweets. Using a full-blown Named Entity tagger allows recognizing a wider range of entities than those well known by their presence in a Knowledge Base or gazetteer. Our submissions achieved first, second and fourth top official scores.
