We consider the task of entity linking over question answering pair (QA-pair). In conventional approaches of entity linking, all the entities whether in one sentence or not are considered the same. We focus on entity linking over QA-pair, in which question entity and answer entity are no longer fully equivalent and they are with the explicit semantic relation. We propose an unsupervised method which utilizes global knowledge of QA-pair in the knowledge base(KB). Firstly, we collect large-scale Chinese QA-pairs and their corresponding triples in the knowledge base. Then mining global knowledge such as the probability of relation and linking similarity between question entity and answer entity. Finally integrating global knowledge and other basic features as well as constraints by integral linear programming (ILP) with an unsupervised method. The experimental results show that each proposed global knowledge improves performance. Our best F-measure on QA-pairs is 53.7%, significantly increased 6.5% comparing with the competitive baseline.
