Knowledge Graph embedding provides a versatile technique for representing knowledge. These techniques can be used in a variety of applications such as completion of knowledge graph to predict missing information, recommender systems, question answering, query expansion, etc. The information embedded in Knowledge graph though being structured is challenging to consume in a real-world application. Knowledge graph embedding enables the real-world application to consume information to improve performance. Knowledge graph embedding is an active research area. Most of the embedding methods focus on structure-based information. Recent research has extended the boundary to include text-based information and image-based information in entity embedding. Efforts have been made to enhance the representation with context information. This paper introduces growth in the field of KG embedding from simple translation-based models to enrichment-based models. This paper includes the utility of the Knowledge graph in real-world applications.

Multi-hop logical reasoning is an established problem in the field of representation learning on knowledge graphs (KGs). It subsumes both one-hop link prediction as well as other more complex types of logical queries. Existing algorithms operate only on classical, triple-based graphs, whereas modern KGs often employ a hyper-relational modeling paradigm. In this paradigm, typed edges may have several key-value pairs known as qualifiers that provide fine-grained context for facts. In queries, this context modifies the meaning of relations, and usually reduces the answer set. Hyper-relational queries are often observed in real-world KG applications, and existing approaches for approximate query answering cannot make use of qualifier pairs. In this work, we bridge this gap and extend the multi-hop reasoning problem to hyper-relational KGs allowing to tackle this new type of complex queries. Building upon recent advancements in Graph Neural Networks and query embedding techniques, we study how to embed and answer hyper-relational conjunctive queries. Besides that, we propose a method to answer such queries and demonstrate in our experiments that qualifiers improve query answering on a diverse set of query patterns.

Modern neural networks obtain information about the problem and calculate the output solely from the input values. We argue that it is not always optimal, and the network's performance can be significantly improved by augmenting it with a query mechanism that allows the network to make several solution trials at run time and get feedback on the loss value on each trial. To demonstrate the capabilities of the query mechanism, we formulate an unsupervised (not dependant on labels) loss function for Boolean Satisfiability Problem (SAT) and theoretically show that it allows the network to extract rich information about the problem. We then propose a neural SAT solver with a query mechanism called QuerySAT and show that it outperforms the neural baseline on a wide range of SAT tasks and the classical baselines on SHA-1 preimage attack and 3-SAT task.

We study an active cluster recovery problem where, given a set of $n$ points and an oracle answering queries like "are these two points in the same cluster?", the task is to recover exactly all clusters using as few queries as possible. We begin by introducing a simple but general notion of margin between clusters that captures, as special cases, the margins used in previous work, the classic SVM margin, and standard notions of stability for center-based clusterings. Then, under our margin assumptions we design algorithms that, in a variety of settings, recover all clusters exactly using only $O(\log n)$ queries. For the Euclidean case, $\mathbb{R}^m$, we give an algorithm that recovers arbitrary convex clusters, in polynomial time, and with a number of queries that is lower than the best existing algorithm by $\Theta(m^m)$ factors. For general pseudometric spaces, where clusters might not be convex or might not have any notion of shape, we give an algorithm that achieves the $O(\log n)$ query bound, and is provably near-optimal as a function of the packing number of the space. Finally, for clusterings realized by binary concept classes, we give a combinatorial characterization of recoverability with $O(\log n)$ queries, and we show that, for many concept classes in Euclidean spaces, this characterization is equivalent to our margin condition. Our results show a deep connection between cluster margins and active cluster recoverability.

Neural models have shown impressive performance gains in answering queries from natural language text. However, existing works are unable to support database queries, such as "List/Count all female athletes who were born in 20th century", which require reasoning over sets of relevant facts with operations such as join, filtering and aggregation. We show that while state-of-the-art transformer models perform very well for small databases, they exhibit limitations in processing noisy data, numerical operations, and queries that aggregate facts. We propose a modular architecture to answer these database-style queries over multiple spans from text and aggregating these at scale. We evaluate the architecture using WikiNLDB, a novel dataset for exploring such queries. Our architecture scales to databases containing thousands of facts whereas contemporary models are limited by how many facts can be encoded. In direct comparison on small databases, our approach increases overall answer accuracy from 85% to 90%. On larger databases, our approach retains its accuracy whereas transformer baselines could not encode the context.

Smart databases are adopting artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to achieve instance optimality, and in the future, databases will come with prepackaged AI models within their core components. The reason is that every database runs on different workloads, demands specific resources, and settings to achieve optimal performance. It prompts the necessity to understand workloads running in the system along with their features comprehensively, which we dub as workload characterization. To address this workload characterization problem, we propose our query plan encoders that learn essential features and their correlations from query plans. Our pretrained encoders capture the structural and the computational performance of queries independently.

We show that our pretrained encoders are adaptable to workloads that expedite the transfer learning process. We performed independent assessments of structural encoder and performance encoders with multiple downstream tasks. For the overall evaluation of our query plan encoders, we architect two downstream tasks (i) query latency prediction and (ii) query classification. These tasks show the importance of feature-based workload characterization. We also performed extensive experiments on individual encoders to verify the effectiveness of representation learning and domain adaptability.

Recently, the database management system (DBMS) community has witnessed the power of machine learning (ML) solutions for DBMS tasks. Despite their promising performance, these existing solutions can hardly be considered satisfactory. First, these ML-based methods in DBMS are not effective enough because they are optimized on each specific task, and cannot explore or understand the intrinsic connections between tasks. Second, the training process has serious limitations that hinder their practicality, because they need to retrain the entire model from scratch for a new DB. Moreover, for each retraining, they require an excessive amount of training data, which is very expensive to acquire and unavailable for a new DB. We propose to explore the transferabilities of the ML methods both across tasks and across DBs to tackle these fundamental drawbacks. In this paper, we propose a unified model MTMLF that uses a multi-task training procedure to capture the transferable knowledge across tasks and a pretrain finetune procedure to distill the transferable meta knowledge across DBs. We believe this paradigm is more suitable for cloud DB service, and has the potential to revolutionize the way how ML is used in DBMS. Furthermore, to demonstrate the predicting power and viability of MTMLF, we provide a concrete and very promising case study on query optimization tasks. Last but not least, we discuss several concrete research opportunities along this line of work.

And unfortunately, the training data collection needs to be repeated for every new database that needs to be supported. In this paper, we present our vision of so called zero-shot learning To reduce the high cost of training data collection, reinforcement for databases which is a new learning approach for database learning (RL) has been used to execute training queries [10, 17, 18, components. Zero-shot learning for databases is inspired by recent 34] in a more targeted manner (i.e., letting the RL agent decide advances in transfer learning of models such as GPT-3 and can which queries to execute next). However, even with reinforcement support a new database out-of-the box without the need to train a learning still a large amount of training queries needs to be executed new model. As a first concrete contribution in this paper, we show for learning a model. Moreover, training the model is not a onetime the feasibility of zero-shot learning for the task of physical cost effort since similar to workload-driven approaches the learning estimation and present very promising initial results. Moreover, procedure needs to be repeated for every new database at hand. as a second contribution we discuss the core challenges related to A different direction that has thus been proposed to avoid the zero-shot learning for databases and present a roadmap to extend expensive training data collection by running queries on a new zero-shot learning towards many other tasks beyond cost estimation database are so called data-driven approaches [11, 31, 32] that learn or even beyond classical database systems and workloads.

Hope springs eternal in the database business. While we're still hearing about data warehouses (fast analysis databases, typically featuring in-memory columnar storage) and tools that improve the ETL step (extract, transform, and load), we're also hearing about improvements in data lakes (which store data in its native format) and data federation (on-demand data integration of heterogeneous data stores). Presto keeps coming up as a fast way to perform SQL queries on big data that resides in data lake files. Presto is an open source distributed SQL query engine for running interactive analytic queries against data sources of all sizes. Presto allows querying data where it lives, including Hive, Cassandra, relational databases, and proprietary data stores.
