Cross-Document Entity Tracking
Cross-document entity tracking, formally known as cross-document coreference resolution, identifies and merges all references to the same real-world entity scattered across a collection of documents. Rooted in the B3 evaluation framework introduced by Bagga and Baldwin (1998) and substantially advanced by the neural joint model of Barhom et al. (2019), the method builds entity clusters that span document boundaries — enabling multi-document understanding, knowledge-base population, and corpus-wide entity analysis.

Curated claims
Claims persisted in the evidence ledger, each with its own assessment.
This view does not invent a claim assessment when the ledger has none.
