Entity Linking (EL) has traditionally relied on large annotated datasets and extensive model fine-tuning. While recent few-shot methods leverage large language models (LLMs) through prompting to reduce training requirements, they often suffer from inefficiencies due to expensive LLM-based reasoning. ARTER (Adaptive Routing and Targeted Entity Reasoning) presents a structured pipeline that achieves high performance without deep fine-tuning by strategically combining candidate generation, context-based scoring, adaptive routing, and selective reasoning. ARTER computes a small set of complementary signals(both embedding and LLM-based) over the retrieved candidates to categorize contextual mentions into easy and hard cases. The cases are then handled by a low-computational entity linker (e.g. ReFinED) and more expensive targeted LLM-based reasoning respectively. On standard benchmarks, ARTER outperforms ReFinED by up to +4.47%, with an average gain of +2.53% on 5 out of 6 datasets, and performs comparably to pipelines using LLM-based reasoning for all mentions, while being as twice as efficient in terms of the number of LLM tokens.

An AI-Enabled Pellet Grill Is a Dumb Idea. Brisk It's Zelos-450 boasts gimmicky generative AI. Grills don't need AI, but you might need an AI grill. When it debuted at CES early this year, the Brisk It Zelos-450 was advertised as being the first grill with generative AI. That AI comes in the form of Vera, an in-app feature that "creates customized recipes based on your input and then sets the grill's temperature to cook them.

Pay attention to the edges and boundaries of the part to create a clean and precise mask.

An unusual type of fossilized fish can be found within the limestone of present-day Germany. The Late Jurassic era conditions exhibited at the famed Solnhofen deposits have preserved the remains of multiple marlin-like marine predators known as . But these carnivorous remains aren't complete specimens--they're decapitated heads still attached to gastrointestinal tracts.
