Hi All, I was thinking of extending the EntityCoreferenceEngine (which currently coreferences only if the noun phrase has an additional word which can be used to further describe the noun) with corefences of simple noun phrases such as "Microsoft -> the company, MIck Jagger -> The singer" by using Word Sense Disambiguation to apply a wordnet class to the noun phrase and then matching that wordnet class to the yago class of the Named Entity, yago class which also has a mapping to the wordnet class. If the 2 wordnet classes match then we have a coreference. The noun phrase would still need to contain "The, This, These" in order to make sure that the noun phrase does refer to an object in the text.
What do you think? Cristian
