Crowdsourced Entity Markup
نویسندگان
چکیده
Entities, such as people, places, products, etc., exist in knowledge bases and linked data, on one hand, and in web pages, news articles, and social media, on the other hand. Entity markup, like Named Entities Recognition and Disambiguation (NERD), is the essential means for adding semantic value to unstructured web contents and this way enabling the linkage between unstructured and structured data and knowledge collections. A major challenge in this endeavor lies in the dynamics of the digital contents about the world, with new entities emerging all the time. In this paper, we propose a crowdsourced framework for NERD, specifically addressing the challenge of emerging entities in social media. Our approach combines NERD techniques with the detection of entity alias names and with co-reference resolution in texts. We propose a linking-game based crowdsourcing system for this combined task, and we report on experimental insights with this approach and on lessons learned.

Web 2.0-Based Crowdsourcing for High-Quality Gold Standard Development in Clinical Natural Language Processing
BACKGROUND A high-quality gold standard is vital for supervised, machine learning-based, clinical natural language processing (NLP) systems. In clinical NLP projects, expert annotators traditionally create the gold standard. However, traditional annotation is expensive and time-consuming. To reduce the cost of annotation, general NLP projects have turned to crowdsourcing based on Web 2.0 techno...
متن کاملCrowdsourced Corpus with Entity Salience Annotations
In this paper, we present a crowdsourced dataset which adds entity salience (importance) annotations to the Reuters-128 dataset, which is subset of Reuters-21578. The dataset is distributed under a free license and publish in the NLP Interchange Format, which fosters interoperability and re-use. We show the potential of the dataset on the task of learning an entity salience classifier and repor...
متن کاملExperiments with crowdsourced re-annotation of a POS tagging data set
Crowdsourcing lets us collect multiple annotations for an item from several annotators. Typically, these are annotations for non-sequential classification tasks. While there has been some work on crowdsourcing named entity annotations, researchers have largely assumed that syntactic tasks such as part-of-speech (POS) tagging cannot be crowdsourced. This paper shows that workers can actually ann...
متن کاملResolving Spatial References using Crowdsourced Geographical Data
We present a study in which we seek to interpret spatial references that are part of in-situ route descriptions. Our aim is to resolve these references to actual entities and places in the city using a crowdsourced geographic database (OpenStreetMap). We discuss the problems related to this task, and present a possible automatic reference resolution method that can find the correct referent in ...
