HITS' Cross-lingual Entity Linking System at TAC 2011: One Model for All Languages
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents HITS’ system for crosslingual entity linking at TAC 2011. We approach the task in three stages: (1) context disambiguation to obtain a language-independent representation, (2) entity disambiguation, (3) clustering of the queries that have not been linked in the second step. For each of these steps one single model is trained and applied to both languages, i.e. English and Chinese. A multilingual knowledge base derived from Wikipedia is at the core of the system. The results achieved in the TAC cross-lingual entity task support our one-model-for-all-languages approach: the F1 scores of all three runs we submitted exceed the median value by 4.8 to 5.5 percent points.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
