may contain entity mentions into a working set of documents that should

be more manageable for the subsequent stages.

Nevertheless, this step has a large impact on the recall that can be

maximally attained! Therefore, in this study, we have focused on just

this filtering stage and conduct an in-depth analysis of the main design

decisions here: how to cleans the noisy text obtained online, 

the methods to create entity profiles, the

types of entities of interest, document type, and the grade of

relevance of the document-entity pair under consideration.

We analyze how these factors (and the design choices made in their

corresponding system components) affect filtering performance.

We identify and characterize the relevant documents that do not pass

the filtering stage by examing their contents. This way, we

estimate a practical upper-bound of recall for entity-centric stream

filtering.
