The JHU HLTCOE participated in the Entity Linking and Cold Start Knowledge Base tasks in this year’s Text Analysis Conference Knowledge Base Population evaluation. We have previously participated in TAC-KBP evaluations in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012. Our primary focus this year was on the Cold Start task; improvements to our existing KELVIN system included consolidating slot values for an entity, removal of suspect intra-document conference chains, streamlined cross-document entity coreference, and application of inference rules to expand the number of asserted facts.
