Overview
The LUKE model was proposed in LUKE: Deep Contextualized Entity Representations with Entity-aware Self-attention by Ikuya Yamada, Akari Asai, Hiroyuki Shindo, Hideaki Takeda and Yuji Matsumoto.
It is based on RoBERTa and adds entity embeddings as well as an entity-aware self-attention mechanism, which helps
improve performance on various downstream tasks involving reasoning about entities such as named entity recognition,
extractive and cloze-style question answering, entity typing, and relation classification.
The abstract from the paper is the following:
Entity representations are useful in natural language tasks involving entities. In this paper, we propose new
pretrained contextualized representations of words and entities based on the bidirectional transformer. The proposed
model treats words and entities in a given text as independent tokens, and outputs contextualized representations of
