/**
* a AnnotatedSpotComparator object provides a method match. match() returns
* true if two AnnotatedSpot objects represent a match. Allows to benchmark a
* entity-linked method using different concepts of 'match', for example you
* could consider a match if the the annotator returns the correct entities
* (with no interest for the mentions referred if the position of the match), or
* you can consider a match only if the entity is the same and the text
* annotated is exactly the same.
*
* For more information please refer to:

* Paolo Ferragina and Massimiliano Ciaramita, Proceedings of the International
* World Wide Web Conference (WWW) (Practice & Experience Track) 2013.
