Abstract

User-generated content (UGC) implies user-behaviors. Mining on such data helps understanding the relationship between social media and the real world. Howevr, UGC is usually of low quality, which results in the diffculty of semantic entity extraction. In this paper, we propose a method towards high-quality semantic entity refinement on forums by employing external resources. Experiments on real-life Chinese online forums show the effectiveness of our method.
