(cid:NN). The PDF this text was extracted from encodes 6 characters in a way that names no letter, so the extractor could not say what they were. The quotes keep them because a quote is reproduced exactly or it proves nothing — the marks are the source’s, not the tagging’s.standOff, and the article is at its publisher via the link below. When we have changed our mind. Some entries in the table begin with a word in capitals and the reason for it. EVIDENCE CORRECTED — the finding still stands, but we had quoted the wrong sentence from the paper, and the quotation has been replaced with the right one. RETRACTED — the entry itself was wrong; it stays on the page, marked, with the reason, rather than being deleted. WITHDRAWN AND REPLACED — the entry was wrong, and a corrected version of it appears in the entries below. Each mark carries its own reason, in brackets, because the reasons differ from one entry to the next. An entry we have WITHDRAWN is removed from this page and kept in the record, with its reason. A line reading Audit and a date is a later re-reading of the entry against its whole sentence: DOUBTFUL means it was kept, and the reason says what is loose about it. Quotation marks inside the tagger's sentence. Where a tag is the tagger's own sentence, a phrase in quotation marks inside it is borrowed from the paper — the tagger's wording around it is not. The paper's own sentence is the evidence quote for that row; on this page it is withheld with the article, and the article is at its publisher. Nothing inside quotation marks anywhere on this page is ours: if it is quoted, it is the paper's. Whose words a concept carries. A concept entry records a term the paper itself uses, so the term, the sense given for it, and its evidence are the paper's own words, quoted where the paper fixes them. This is the opposite of a sense entry in the tag table, which is the tagger's sentence about how the paper uses a term. Where a concept entry could not be grounded in the paper's words, the entry says so on its own row.| relation to other work | claim_relations | how this paper stands to another: agrees, contradicts, extends, qualifies |
| claim type | claim_type | the shape of the claim: existence, mechanism, method, critique, prediction, null |
| concept edge | concept_edges | an asserted relation between two concepts, with the sentence asserting it |
| concept | concepts | an idea the paper works with, quoted where the paper uses it |
| content tag | content_tags | a finding, definition, quantity, statistic or variable named in the paper |

Relations on this page carry a quotation for the claim. Where a relation was separately evidenced — and so tested against the vocabulary for its type — the row says so; 4 of 6 relations here carry that mark. The rest are the tagger’s reading of the sentence quoted beside them.

| limitations | Ground truth for the full dataset is mostly automatic, not manually checked, because manual labelling at that scale was not feasible. Quotation withheld — this record is not cleared for redistribution. The sentence is in the paper at the link above. | limitations[0] | the tagger's words | |
| limitations | Performance on the full dataset is lower than on the manually labelled sample, possibly an artefact of the automatic labelling rather than of the method.

| limitations | The attributes that define a correct match are the ones excluded from the scoring, so identity is fixed by whichever fields were reserved. Quotation withheld — this record is not cleared for redistribution. The sentence is in the paper at the link above. what this limits: any accuracy figure reported here: the attributes used to construct the ground truth are deliberately excluded from the similarity computation, so what counts as the same entity is defined by one set of attributes and predicted from a different set | limitations[4] | 1.0 | the tagger's words |
| limitations | String similarity is stated to be inapplicable to the attribute that looks most like a key, with a worked counterexample. Quotation withheld — this record is not cleared for redistribution. The sentence is in the paper at the link above. what this limits: any use of string-similarity metrics on addresses: the paper states they cannot be used, giving two addresses with a Levenshtein similarity of 0.963 that are 650 meters apart | limitations[5] | 1.0 | the tagger's words |
| limitations | Coordinates fail as an identifier in both directions at once. Quotation withheld — this record is not cleared for redistribution. The sentence is in the paper at the link above. what this limits: any linkage of these sources on coordinates: different spatial entities may share coordinates, as with shops in a shopping mall, and one entity may appear at coordinates 82 meters apart in two sources | limitations[6] | 1.0 | the tagger's words |
| limitations | The methods this work builds on were fitted to a different kind of entity, and the authors say the resemblance cannot be assumed. Quotation withheld — this record is not cleared for redistribution. The sentence is in the paper at the link above. what this limits: carrying an entity-resolution method over to spatial entities: the authors state such solutions are learned on human entity datasets and that the resemblance of behaviours between the two cannot merely be assumed | limitations[7] | 1.0 | the tagger's words |

| senses | spatial entity vs spatial object - THE DISTINCTION THE WHOLE PAPER RESTS ON: an object is identified by its coordinates alone, an entity is not, so the two words name things that need different identity conditions even though both sit at a point on a map Quotation withheld — this record is not cleared for redistribution. The sentence is in the paper at the link above. | senses[0] | 1.0 | the tagger's words |
| senses | identity - AS A COMBINATION OF ATTRIBUTES, NOT A KEY: the paper states outright that what makes a spatial entity itself is several attributes together, and that inconsistency between sources makes that combination hard to infer Quotation withheld — this record is not cleared for redistribution. The sentence is in the paper at the link above. | senses[1] | 1.0 | the tagger's words |
| senses | similarity - SYNTACTIC AND SPATIAL COME APART: a one-character change in an address is a 0.963 string similarity and 650 metres on the ground, which is why the paper refuses ordinary string metrics for exactly the field that looks most like an identifier Quotation withheld — this record is not cleared for redistribution.

| senses | `QuadSky` - A PIPELINE WHOSE FOUR PARTS ARE NAMED TWICE OVER, ONCE BY FUNCTION AND ONCE BY ALGORITHM. `Quotation withheld` Three of the four carry a coined proper name in a parenthesis and one does not - `pairwise comparisons` is the stage the authors did not invent anything for, and the naming records that asymmetry exactly.
