Abstract:
This paper gives an overview of our work done for the TREC 2009 Entity track. We propose a hierarchical relevance retrieval model for entity ranking. In this model, three levels of relevance are examined which are document, passage and entity, respectively. The final ranking score is a linear combination of the relevance scores from the three levels. Furthermore, we exploit the structure of tables and lists to identify the target entities from them by making a joint decision on all the entities with the same attribute. To find entity homepages, we train logistic regression models for each type of entities. A set of templates and filtering rules are also used to identify target entities. The key lessons that we learned by participating this year's Entity track include: 1) our special treatment of table and list data is well rewarding; 2) The high accuracy of homepage finding is crucial in this track; 3) Wikipedia can serve as a valuable knowledge resource for different aspects of the related entity finding task. ; Presented at the Text REtrieval Conference (TREC 2009, 18th) held in Gaithersburg, Maryland on 17-20 November 2009. Published in the Proceedings of the Text REtrieval Conference (TREC 2009, 18th), 2009. The conference was co-sponsored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), and the Advanced Research and Development Activity (ARDA).
