A Survey of Knowledge Graph Embedding and Their Applications
Choudhary, Shivani, Luthra, Tarun, Mittal, Ashima, Singh, Rajat
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.
Zero-shot Visual Question Answering using Knowledge Graph
Chen, Zhuo, Chen, Jiaoyan, Geng, Yuxia, Pan, Jeff Z., Yuan, Zonggang, Chen, Huajun
Incorporating external knowledge to Visual Question Answering (VQA) has become a vital practical need. Existing methods mostly adopt pipeline approaches with different components for knowledge matching and extraction, feature learning, etc.However, such pipeline approaches suffer when some component does not perform well, which leads to error propagation and poor overall performance. Furthermore, the majority of existing approaches ignore the answer bias issue -- many answers may have never appeared during training (i.e., unseen answers) in real-word application. To bridge these gaps, in this paper, we propose a Zero-shot VQA algorithm using knowledge graphs and a mask-based learning mechanism for better incorporating external knowledge, and present new answer-based Zero-shot VQA splits for the F-VQA dataset. Experiments show that our method can achieve state-of-the-art performance in Zero-shot VQA with unseen answers, meanwhile dramatically augment existing end-to-end models on the normal F-VQA task.
Reasoning with Language Models and Knowledge Graphs for Question Answering
From search engines to personal assistants, we use question-answering systems every day. When we ask a question ("Where was the painter of the Mona Lisa born?"), the system needs to gather background knowledge ("The Mona Lisa was painted by Leonardo da Vinci", "Leonardo da Vinci was born in Italy") and reason over it to produce the answer ("Italy"). Knowledge sources In recent AI research, such background knowledge is commonly available in the forms of knowledge graphs (KGs) and language models (LMs) pre-trained on a large set of documents. In KGs, entities are represented as nodes and relations between them as edges, e.g. Examples of KGs include Freebase (general-purpose facts)1, ConceptNet (commonsense)2, and UMLS (biomedical facts)3.
Similar Cases Recommendation using Legal Knowledge Graphs
Dhani, Jaspreet Singh, Bhatt, Ruchika, Ganesan, Balaji, Sirohi, Parikshet, Bhatnagar, Vasudha
A legal knowledge graph constructed from court cases, judgments, laws and other legal documents can enable a number of applications like question answering, document similarity, and search. While the use of knowledge graphs for distant supervision in NLP tasks is well researched, using knowledge graphs for downstream graph tasks like node similarity presents challenges in selecting node types and their features. In this demo, we describe our solution for predicting similar nodes in a case graph derived from our legal knowledge graph.
SeaNet -- Towards A Knowledge Graph Based Autonomic Management of Software Defined Networks
Zhou, Qianru, Gray, Alasdair J. G., McLaughlin, Stephen
Automatic network management driven by Artificial Intelligent technologies has been heatedly discussed over decades. However, current reports mainly focus on theoretic proposals and architecture designs, works on practical implementations on real-life networks are yet to appear. This paper proposes our effort toward the implementation of knowledge graph driven approach for autonomic network management in software defined networks (SDNs), termed as SeaNet. Driven by the ToCo ontology, SeaNet is reprogrammed based on Mininet (a SDN emulator). It consists three core components, a knowledge graph generator, a SPARQL engine, and a network management API. The knowledge graph generator represents the knowledge in the telecommunication network management tasks into formally represented ontology driven model. Expert experience and network management rules can be formalized into knowledge graph and by automatically inferenced by SPARQL engine, Network management API is able to packet technology-specific details and expose technology-independent interfaces to users. The Experiments are carried out to evaluate proposed work by comparing with a commercial SDN controller Ryu implemented by the same language Python. The evaluation results show that SeaNet is considerably faster in most circumstances than Ryu and the SeaNet code is significantly more compact. Benefit from RDF reasoning, SeaNet is able to achieve O(1) time complexity on different scales of the knowledge graph while the traditional database can achieve O(nlogn) at its best. With the developed network management API, SeaNet enables researchers to develop semantic-intelligent applications on their own SDNs.
DEAP-FAKED: Knowledge Graph based Approach for Fake News Detection
Mayank, Mohit, Sharma, Shakshi, Sharma, Rajesh
Fake News on social media platforms has attracted a lot of attention in recent times, primarily for events related to politics (2016 US Presidential elections), healthcare (infodemic during COVID-19), to name a few. Various methods have been proposed for detecting Fake News. The approaches span from exploiting techniques related to network analysis, Natural Language Processing (NLP), and the usage of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). In this work, we propose DEAP-FAKED, a knowleDgE grAPh FAKe nEws Detection framework for identifying Fake News. Our approach is a combination of the NLP -- where we encode the news content, and the GNN technique -- where we encode the Knowledge Graph (KG). A variety of these encodings provides a complementary advantage to our detector. We evaluate our framework using two publicly available datasets containing articles from domains such as politics, business, technology, and healthcare. As part of dataset pre-processing, we also remove the bias, such as the source of the articles, which could impact the performance of the models. DEAP-FAKED obtains an F1-score of 88% and 78% for the two datasets, which is an improvement of 21%, and 3% respectively, which shows the effectiveness of the approach.

Nayyeri, Mojtaba, Cil, Gokce Muge, Vahdati, Sahar, Osborne, Francesco, Rahman, Mahfuzur, Angioni, Simone, Salatino, Angelo, Recupero, Diego Reforgiato, Vassilyeva, Nadezhda, Motta, Enrico, Lehmann, Jens
The incompleteness of Knowledge Graphs (KGs) is a crucial issue affecting the quality of AI-based services. In the scholarly domain, KGs describing research publications typically lack important information, hindering our ability to analyse and predict research dynamics. In recent years, link prediction approaches based on Knowledge Graph Embedding models became the first aid for this issue. In this work, we present Trans4E, a novel embedding model that is particularly fit for KGs which include N to M relations with N$\gg$M. This is typical for KGs that categorize a large number of entities (e.g., research articles, patents, persons) according to a relatively small set of categories. Trans4E was applied on two large-scale knowledge graphs, the Academia/Industry DynAmics (AIDA) and Microsoft Academic Graph (MAG), for completing the information about Fields of Study (e.g., 'neural networks', 'machine learning', 'artificial intelligence'), and affiliation types (e.g., 'education', 'company', 'government'), improving the scope and accuracy of the resulting data. We evaluated our approach against alternative solutions on AIDA, MAG, and four other benchmarks (FB15k, FB15k-237, WN18, and WN18RR). Trans4E outperforms the other models when using low embedding dimensions and obtains competitive results in high dimensions.
On-Demand and Lightweight Knowledge Graph Generation -- a Demonstration with DBpedia
Brockmeier, Malte, Liu, Yawen, Pateer, Sunita, Hertling, Sven, Paulheim, Heiko
Modern large-scale knowledge graphs, such as DBpedia, are datasets which require large computational resources to serve and process. Moreover, they often have longer release cycles, which leads to outdated information in those graphs. In this paper, we present DBpedia on Demand -- a system which serves DBpedia resources on demand without the need to materialize and store the entire graph, and which even provides limited querying functionality.
Leveraging Static Models for Link Prediction in Temporal Knowledge Graphs
The inclusion of temporal scopes of facts in knowledge graph embedding (KGE) presents significant opportunities for improving the resulting embeddings, and consequently for increased performance in downstream applications. Yet, little research effort has focussed on this area and much of the carried out research reports only marginally improved results compared to models trained without temporal scopes (static models). Furthermore, rather than leveraging existing work on static models, they introduce new models specific to temporal knowledge graphs. We propose a novel perspective that takes advantage of the power of existing static embedding models by focussing effort on manipulating the data instead. Our method, SpliMe, draws inspiration from the field of signal processing and early work in graph embedding. We show that SpliMe competes with or outperforms the current state of the art in temporal KGE. Additionally, we uncover issues with the procedure currently used to assess the performance of static models on temporal graphs and introduce two ways to counteract them.
