Aligning Cross-Lingual Entities with Multi-Aspect Information
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Multilingual knowledge graphs (KGs), such as YAGO and DBpedia, represent entities in different languages.The task of cross-lingual entity alignment is to match entities in a source language with their counterparts in target languages.In this work, we investigate embedding-based approaches to encode entities from multilingual KGs into the same vector space, where equivalent entities are close to each other.Specifically, we apply graph convolutional networks (GCNs) to combine multiaspect information of entities, including topological connections, relations, and attributes of entities, to learn entity embeddings.To exploit the literal descriptions of entities expressed in different languages, we propose two uses of a pretrained multilingual BERT model to bridge cross-lingual gaps.We further propose two strategies to integrate GCN-based and BERTbased modules to boost performance.Extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms existing systems.

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.
