Named Entity Schema

In natural language processing, entity linking, also referred to as named-entity linking (NEL), named-entity disambiguation (NED), is the task of assigning a unique identity to entities (such as famous individuals, locations, or companies) mentioned in text. In entity linking, words of interest (names of persons, locations and companies) are mapped from an input text to corresponding unique entities in a target knowledge base. Words of interest are called named entities (NEs), mentions, or surface forms. The target knowledge base depends on the intended application, but for entity linking systems intended to work on open-domain text it is common to use knowledge bases derived from Wikipedia (such as Wikidata, DBpedia, or an organizational knowledge graph).

Named Entity schema encoding results from information extraction tasks such as Named Entity Recognition and Linking.
