I have some 34000 restaurant reviews in English to perform entity linking on and I'm looking for some scalable solution.

Is there some pretrained model for entity linking to Wikipedi/WikiData KB?

  • Spacy recently started to support Entity Linking 1,2,3 but they do not provide pretrained model for that and some people report training takes at least a week.
  • Wikifier has a pretrained model that can be used for entity linking via REST service for that but I don't know what's their Rate Limit for my number of texts and how it scales. Hence, I would prefer offline solution.

There are two implementations, Illinois Wikifier 1.0 and 2.0 available for download here, described in the following publications

I've tried the first one and got some good results. Its' definitely not production-ready software: sometimes, the memory problems accumulate resulting in Java heap space issues, but I was able to add possibility to resume failing tasks and it works great now.
