Abstract

In some aspects, systems, methods, and computer-readable media for selective feature activation for coreference resolution are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving text data comprising a plurality of mentions corresponding to entities, and determining a plurality of data features, comprising semantic features and syntactic features, for comparing a particular pair of mentions from the plurality of mentions. The method also includes selectively activating a subset of features from the plurality of data features based on semantic and syntactic context of the particular pair of mentions within the text data, and determining, using weights associated with the activated subset of features and at least one machine learning function, whether a first mention of the pair of mentions and second mention of the pair of mentions refer to a same entity.
