abstract = "Entity linking (EL) aims to disambiguate named entities in text by mapping them to the appropriate entities in a knowledge base. However, it is difficult to use some EL methods, as they sometimes have issues in reproducibility due to limited maintenance or the lack of official resources.To address this, we introduce , a unified library for using and developing entity linking systems through a unified interface. Our library flexibly integrates various candidate retrievers and re-ranking models, making it easy to compare and use any entity linking methods within a unified framework. In addition, it is designed with a strong emphasis on API usability, making it highly extensible, and it supports both command-line tools and APIs. Our code is available on GitHub and is also distributed via PyPI under the MIT-license. The video is available on YouTube."
