Cell Entity Annotation

Cell Entity Annotation (CEA) is the task of annotating cells in a table with an entity from a knowledge base and is a subtask of Table Annotation. CEA problem labels are entities from knowledge bases such as DBpedia or WikiData. It usually is considered as a multi-class classification problem.

CEA can also be referred to in different works as the problem of entity linking, as it links a cell in a table to an entity.
