\section{Analysis and Discussion}\label{sec:analysis}

We conducted experiments to study  the impacts on recall of 

different components of the filtering stage of entity-based filtering and ranking pipeline. Specifically 

we conducted experiments to study the impacts of cleansing, 

entity profiles, relevance ratings, categories of documents, entity profiles. We also measured  impact of the different factors and choices  on later stages of the pipeline. 

Experimental results show that cleansing can remove entire or parts of the content of documents making them difficult to retrieve. These documents can, otherwise, be retrieved from the raw version. The use of the raw corpus brings in documents that can not be retrieved from the cleansed corpus. This is true for all entity profiles and for all entity types. The  recall difference between the cleansed and raw ranges from  6.8\% t 26.2\%. These increases, in actual document-entity pairs,  is in thousands. We believe this is a substantial increase. However, the recall increases do not always translate to improved F-score in overall performance.  In the vital relevance ranking for both Wikipedia and aggregate entities, the cleansed version performs better than the raw version.  In Twitter entities, the raw corpus achieves better except in the case of all name-variant, though the difference is negligible.  However, for vital-relevant, the raw corpus performs  better across all entity profiles and entity types 

except in partial canonical names of Wikipedia entities. 

The use of different profiles also shows a big difference in recall. Except in the case of Wikipedia where the use of canonical partial achieves better than name-variant, there is a steady increase in recall from canonical to  canonical partial, to name-variant, and to name-variant partial. This pattern is also observed across the document categories.  However, here too, the relationship between   the gain in recall as we move from less richer profile to a more richer profile and overall performance as measured by F-score  is not linear. 

%%%%% MOVED FROM LATER ON - CHECK FLOW

There is a trade-off between using a richer entity-profile and retrieval of irrelevant documents. The richer the profile, the more relevant documents it retrieves, but also the more irrelevant documents. To put it into perspective, lets compare the number of documents that are retrieved with  canonical partial and with name-variant partial. Using the raw corpus, the former retrieves a total of 2547487 documents and achieves a recall of 72.2\%. By contrast, the later retrieves a total of 4735318 documents and achieves a recall of 90.2\%. The total number of documents extracted increases by 85.9\% for a recall gain of 18\%. The rest of the documents, that is 67.9\%, are newly introduced irrelevant documents.

In vital ranking, across all entity profiles and types of corpus, Wikipedia's canonical partial  achieves better performance than any other Wikipedia entity profiles. In vital-relevant documents too, Wikipedia's canonical partial achieves the best result. In the raw corpus, it achieves a little less than name-variant partial. For Twitter entities, the name-variant partial profile achieves the highest F-score across all entity profiles and types of corpus.  

entities and relevant documents.  This  is validated by the

observation that recall  gains in Twitter entities and the relevant

categories in the raw corpus also translate into overall performance

gains. This observation implies that cleansing removes relevant and

social documents than it does vital and news. That it removes relevant

documents more than vital can be explained by the fact that cleansing

removes the related links and adverts which may contain a mention of

the entities. One example we saw was the the cleansing removed an

image with a text of an entity name which was actually relevant. And

that it removes social documents can be explained by the fact that

most of the missing of the missing  docuemnts from cleansed are

social. And all the docuemnts that are missing from raw corpus

social. So in both cases socuial seem to suffer from text

transformation and cleasing processes.

during evaluation) into account, there is a clear trade-off between using a richer entity-profile and retrieval of irrelevant documents. The richer the profile, the more relevant documents it retrieves, but also the more irrelevant documents. To put it into perspective, lets compare the number of documents that are retrieved with  canonical partial and with name-variant partial. Using the raw corpus, the former retrieves a total of 2547487 documents and achieves a recall of 72.2\%. By contrast, the later retrieves a total of 4735318 documents and achieves a recall of 90.2\%. The total number of documents extracted increases by 85.9\% for a recall gain of 18\%. The rest of the documents, that is 67.9\%, are newly introduced irrelevant documents. 

Wikipedia's canonical partial is the best entity profile for Wikipedia entities. This is interesting  to see that the retrieval of of  thousands vital-relevant document-entity pairs by name-variant partial does not translate to an increase in over all performance. It is even more interesting since canonical partial was not considered as contending profile for stream filtering by any of participant to the best of our knowledge. With this understanding, there  is actually no need to go and fetch different names variants from DBpedia, a saving of time and computational resources.

%%%%%%%%%%%%

The deltas between entity profiles, relevance ratings, and document categories reveal four differences between Wikipedia and Twitter entities. 1) For Wikipedia entities, the difference between canonical partial and canonical is higher(16.1\%) than between name-variant partial and  name-variant(8.3\%).  This can be explained by saturation. This is to mean that documents have already been extracted by  name-variants and thus using their partials does not bring in many new relevant documents.  2) Twitter entities are mentioned by name-variant or name-variant partial and that is seen in the high recall achieved  compared to the low recall achieved by canonical(or their partial). This indicates that documents (specially news and others) almost never use user names to refer to Twitter entities. Name-variant partials are the best entity profiles for Twitter entities. 3) However, comparatively speaking, social documents refer to Twitter entities by their user names than news and others suggesting a difference in 

adherence to standard in names and naming. 4) Wikipedia entities achieve higher recall and higher overall performance. 

The high recall and subsequent higher overall performance of Wikipedia entities can  be due to two reasons. 1) Wikipedia entities are relatively well described than Twitter entities. The fact that we can retrieve different name variants from DBpedia is a measure of relatively rich description. Rich description plays a role in both filtering and computation of features such as similarity measures in later stages of the pipeline.   By contrast, we have only two names for Twitter entities: their user names and their display names which we collect from their Twitter pages. 2) There is not DBpedia-like resource for Twitter entities from which alternative names cane be collected.   

In the experimental results, we also observed that recall scores in the vital category are higher than in the relevant category. This observation  confirms one commonly held assumption:(frequency) mention is related to relevance.  this is the assumption why term frequency is used an indicator of document relevance in many information retrieval systems. The more  a document mentions an entity explicitly by name, the more likely the document is vital to the entity.

Across document categories, we observe a pattern in recall of others, followed by news, and then by social. Social documents are the hardest to retrieve. This can be explained by the fact that social documents (tweets and  blogs) are more likely to point to a resource where the entity is mentioned, mention the entities with some short abbreviation, or talk without mentioning the entities, but with some context in mind. By contrast news documents mention the entities they talk about using the common name variants more than social documents do. However, the greater difference in percentage recall between the different entity profiles in the news category indicates news refer to a given entity with different names, rather than by one standard name. By contrast others show least variation in referring to news. Social documents falls in between the two.  The deltas, for Wikipedia entities, between canonical partials and canonicals,  and name-variants and canonicals are high, an indication that canonical partials 

and name-variants bring in new relevant documents that can not be retrieved by canonicals. The rest of the two deltas are very small,  suggesting that partial names of name variants do not bring in new relevant documents.
