• Authors: Long Ma, Kai Lu, Tianbo Che, Hailong Huang, Weiguo Gao, Xuan Li
• Abstract summary: The MultiCoNER II task aims to detect complex, ambiguous, and fine-grained named entities in low-context situations and noisy scenarios. Our system retrieves entities with properties from the knowledge base (i.e. Wikipedia) for a given text, then retrieves entity information with the input sentence and feeds it into Transformer-based models.

• Abstract: The MultiCoNER II task aims to detect complex, ambiguous, and fine-grained named entities in low-context situations and noisy scenarios like the presence of spelling mistakes and typos for multiple languages. The task poses significant challenges due to the scarcity of contextual information, the high granularity of the entities(up to 33 classes), and the interference of noisy data. To address these issues, our team {\bf PAI} proposes a universal Named Entity Recognition (NER) system that integrates external entity information to improve performance. Specifically, our system retrieves entities with properties from the knowledge base (i.e. Wikipedia) for a given text, then concatenates entity information with the input sentence and feeds it into Transformer-based models. Finally, our system wins 2 first places, 4 second places, and 1 third place out of 13 tracks. The code is publicly available at \url{https://github.com/diqiuzhuanzhuan/semeval-2023}.

  The MultiCoNER RNum2 shared task aims to tackle multilingual named entity recognition (NER) in fine-grained and noisy scenarios. Previous top systems in the MultiCoNER RNum1 either incorporate the knowledge bases or gazetteers. We propose a unified retrieval-augmented system (U-RaNER) for fine-grained multilingual NER.

  Speech Entity Linking aims to recognize and disambiguate named entities in spoken languages. Conventional methods suffer from the unfettered speech styles and the noisy transcripts generated by ASR systems. We propose Knowledge Enhanced Named Entity Recognition (KENER), which focuses on improving robustness through painlessly incorporating proper knowledge in the entity recognition stage. Our system achieves 1st place in Track 1 and 2nd place in Track 2 of NLPCC-2022 Shared Task 2.

  We introduce our submitted system to the Multilingual Complex Named Entity Recognition (MultiCoNER) shared task. We approach the complex NER for multilingual and code-mixed queries, by relying on the contextualized representation provided by the multilingual Transformer XLM-RoBERTa. Our proposed system is ranked 6th and 8th in the multilingual and code-mixed MultiCoNER's tracks respectively.

  Entities are at the center of how we represent and aggregate knowledge.
