We study the problem of finding entities referring to the same real world object in multilingual knowledge graphs(KGs), i.e., entity alignment for multilingual KGs. Recently, embedding-based entity alignment methods get extended attention in this area. Most of them firstly embed the entities in low dimensional vectors space via relation structure of entities, and then align entities via these learned embeddings combined with some entity similarity function. Even achieved promising performances, these methods are defective in utilizing entity contexts and entity topic information. In this paper, we propose a novel entity alignment framework CTEA (Context and Topic Enhanced Entity Alignment), which integrates entity context information and entity topic information to help alignment. This framework learns entity topic distributions from their attributes with a specially designed topic model BTM4EA, and the learned entity topic distributions are used to filter some weakly correlated entities for each entity to be aligned. Meanwhile, we embed KGs to low dimensional vectors space via translation-based KG embedding model and mine context information from these vectors with an attention attached Convolutional Neural Network(CNN). The entity embeddings, entity contexts and entity topics are combined to get the final alignment results. Extended experiments reveal that our method achieves promising performances in most cases.
