Entity linking (EL) is a similar but broader task than Named Entity Disambiguation (NED): NED is concerned with disambiguating a textual NE mention where the correct entity is known to be one of the KB entries, while EL also requires systems to deal with the case where there is no entry for the NE in the reference KB.[1]

3 general steps:

  1. mention detection
  2. link generation
  3. disambiguation
