  • Is it fair to say that this is broadly similar to Markov Logic, only (a) specific to a representation in which documents consist of sets of short text segments and (b) using pairwise TFIDF similarities rather than a complex graphical model?
  • Has this sort of formalism for entities been used with feature-based representations? i.e. documents and/or their segments are feature-valued rather than string-valued?
