Entity linking, which is a core component of KG-SimpleQA, detects the entities mentioned in questions, and links them to the actual entity in KG. However, traditional methods ignore some information of entities, especially entity types, which leads to the emergence of entity ambiguity problem. Besides, entity linking suffers from out-of-vocabulary (OOV) problem due to the limitation of pre-trained word embeddings. To address these problems, we encode questions in a novel way and encode the features contained in the entities in a multilevel way. To evaluate the enhancement of the whole KG-SimpleQA brought by our improved entity linking, we utilize a relatively simple approach for relation prediction. Besides, to reduce the impact of losing the feature during the encoding procedure, we utilize a ranking algorithm to re-rank (entity, relation) pairs. According to the experimental results, our method for entity linking achieves an accuracy of 81.8% that beats the state-of-the-art methods, and our improved entity linking brings a boost of 5.6% for the whole KG-SimpleQA.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0218194021400039","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,7]],"date-time":"2021-02-07T02:29:54Z","timestamp":1612664994000},"page":"55-80","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Improved Entity Linking for Simple Question Answering Over Knowledge Graph"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Kai","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing 211106, P.\u00a0R.\u00a0China"}]},{"given":"Guohua","family":"Shen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Collaborative Innovation Center of Novel Software Technology and Industrialization, Key Laboratory of Safety-Critical Software, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Nanjing 211106, P.\u00a0R.\u00a0China"}]},{"given":"Zhiqiu","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Collaborative Innovation Center of Novel Software Technology and Industrialization, Key Laboratory of Safety-Critical Software, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Nanjing 211106, P.\u00a0R.\u00a0China"}]},{"given":"Haijuan","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing 211106, P.\u00a0R.\u00a0China"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0218194021400039BIB002","first-page":"722","volume-title":"6th Int.
