Narrative-UFET: Narrative Generation for Ultra-Fine Entity Typing
Researchers created Narrative-UFET by pairing every entity mention with a short, automatically generated story focused on that entity. Testing showed this narrative context consistently improved typing performance for rare 'long-tail' entities compared to sentence-level methods. The 'Change' variant, where the entity type shifts across the narrative, provided a stronger signal than the 'Maintain' variant.
