Abstract

Entity Linking is one of the most common Natural Language Processing tasks in practical applications, but so far efficient end-to-end solutions with multilingual coverage have been lacking, leading to complex model stacks. To fill this gap, we release and open source BELA, the first fully end-to-end multilingual entity linking model that efficiently detects and links entities in texts in any of 97 languages. We provide here a detailed description of the model and report BELA's performance on four entity linking datasets covering high- and low-resource languages.
