Abstract: Aiming at the problem that the traditional entity alignment algorithm may lead to bad performance in entity alignment task of Chinese heterogeneous encyclopedia knowledge base, an entity alignment method based on entity attributes and the features of context topics was proposed. First, a Chinese heterogeneous encyclopedia knowledge base was constructed based on Baidu encyclopedia and Hudong encyclopedia data. Next, the Resource Description Framework Schema (RDFS) vocabulary list was made to normalize the entity attributes. Then the entity context information was extracted and the Chinese word segmentation was used on the contexts. The contexts were modelled by using the topic model and the parameters were computed by Gibbs sampling method. After that the topic-word probability matrix, the characteristic word collection and the corresponding feature matrix were calculated. Last, the Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) algorithm was used to compute the entity attribute similarity. When the similarity was between the lower and the upper bounds, the topic features of the entities' context were combined to resolve the entity alignment problem. Finally, according to the standard method, an entity alignment data set of Chinese heterogeneous encyclopedia was constructed for simulation experiments. In comparison with the traditional property similarity algorithm, weighted-property algorithm, context term frequency feature model and topic model algorithm, the experimental results show that the proposed method achieves 97.8% accuracy, 88.0% recall, 92.6% F-score in people class and 98.6% accuracy, 73.0% recall, 83.9% F-score in movie class. It outperformed the other entity alignment algorithms. The experimental results also indicate that the proposed method can improve the entity alignment results in constructing the Chinese heterogeneous encyclopedia knowledge base, and it can be applied to the entity alignment tasks with context information.
