Training a custom ENTITY LINKING model with spaCy
spaCy is an open-source library for advanced Natural Language Processing in Python. In this video, we show you how to create a custom Entity Linking model in spaCy to disambiguate different mentions of the person "Emerson" to unique identifiers in a knowledge base. We accomplish this by training a machine learning model on some text annotated from scratch with Prodigy. You can follow along in this notebook: https://github.com/explosion/projects...
STEP BY STEP
00:00 – Introduction to the Entity Linking challenge
04:52 – Set up the knowledge base
10:30 – Annotate training data with Prodigy
19:19 – Parse the training data into the required format for spaCy
23:12 – Create and train the Entity Linking component
25:36 – Test the EL component on unseen data
