Entity disambiguation based on entity-link is a technique which constructs the mappings between entity reference items appearing in the short text and target entity in knowledge base respectively. In this paper we propose an entity disambiguation method based on Graph Attention Networks for semi-structured knowledge base data. First, a global Knowledge Graph is constructed from the semi-structured knowledge base, and the entity reference items are embedded by Bert pre-trained model meanwhile. Next, Graph Attention Networks which leverages masked self-attention layers is applyed on candidate entity nodes of global Knowledge Graph to fetch a vector of node level. Furtherly, we compute similarity scores rank between the entity reference items and the candidate entity to complete the task of entity disambiguation. The experimental results on CCKS2019 dataset achieve state-of-the-art.
