JeuxDeLiens: Word Embeddings and Path-Based Similarity for Entity Linking using the French JeuxDeMots Lexical Semantic Network

Julien Plu, Kevin Cousot, Mathieu Lafourcade, Raphaël Troncy, Giuseppe Rizzo

Abstract : Entity linking systems typically rely on encyclopedic knowledge bases such as DBpedia or Freebase. In this paper, we use, instead, a French lexical-semantic network named JeuxDeMots to jointly type and link entities. Our approach combines word embeddings and a path-based similarity resulting in encouraging results over a set of documents from the French Le Monde newspaper.

Keywords : named entity, disambiguation, jeuxdemots, lexical network.
