Dictionary-based systems allow a direct mapping of the recognized entities to reference objects (e.g. EntrezGene identifiers for genes).
The major first entity of the reference model are 'virtual workspaces' that represents a kind of 'workbench' where services and resources are conveniently accessed.
All of the transition funds have been subjected to annual review, conducted by an independent entity following terms of reference defined by the steering committee of the fund.
Within each system which serves as the source of truth for that particular data element, the discrete unit is an entity, and each entity can have attributes in the form of reference to entities in other systems.
For example, the line joining the entity x to entity y becomes the line of reference, and the corresponding direction from entity x to entity y becomes the direction of reference for the image.
Alternatively, someone who took the hybrid line might prefer to give it a Fregean spin, saying that the entities with which true Fregean Thoughts were identical were the genuine facts, and that the corresponding entities at the level of reference that true Russellian propositions were identical with were not facts as such, but fact-like correlates of some sort.
There are several reasons why such identity theorists feel uncomfortable with propositions, construed as entities at the level of reference.
But the hybrid version of the identity theory is not touched by the objection, because that theory accommodates factual entities, of some sort, at both levels of sense and reference, but different sorts at these different levels either facts at the level of sense and correlative fact-like entities at the level of reference or vice versa.
If the reference entity of a credit default swap experiences what is known as a credit event (such as a bankruptcy, downgrade, etc)., then the buyer of protection (who pays a premium for that protection) can receive payment from the seller of protection.
This is especially true in the area of entity reference extraction and named-entity recognition.
