All Entities are Not Created Equal: Examining the Long Tail for Ultra-Fine Entity Typing
Excerpt
arXiv:2410.17355v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Due to their capacity to acquire world knowledge from large corpora, pre-trained language models (PLMs) are extensively used in ultra-fine entity typing tasks where the space of labels is extremely large. In this work, we explore the limitations of the knowledge acquired by PLMs by proposing a novel heuristic to approximate the pre-training distribution of entities when the pre-training data is unknown. Then, we systematically demonstrate that
