Abstract
AbstractVarious methods have already been proposed for learning entity embeddings from text descriptions. Such embeddings are commonly used for inferring properties of entities, for recommendation and entity-oriented search, and for injecting background knowledge into neural architectures, among others. Entity embeddings essentially serve as a compact encoding of a similarity relation, but similarity is an inherently multi-faceted notion. By representing entities as single vectors, existing methods leave it to downstream applications to identify these different facets, and to select the most relevant ones. In this paper, we propose a model that instead learns several vectors for each entity, each of which intuitively captures a different aspect of the considered domain. We use a mixture-of-experts formulation to jointly learn these facet-specific embeddings. The individual entity embeddings are learned using a variant of the GloVe model, which has the advantage that we can easily identify which properties are modelled well in which of the learned embeddings. This is exploited by an associated gating network, which uses pre-trained word vectors to encourage the properties that are modelled by a given embedding to be semantically coherent, i.e. to encourage each of the individual embeddings to capture a meaningful facet.

However, it is still challenging for many existing methods to model diverse relational patterns, es- pecially symmetric and antisymmetric relations. To address this issue, we propose a novel model, AprilE, which employs triple-level self-attention and pseudo residual connection to model rela- tional patterns. The triple-level self-attention treats head entity, relation, and tail entity as a sequence and captures the dependency within a triple. At the same time the pseudo residual connection retains primitive semantic features. Furthermore, to deal with symmetric and anti- symmetric relations, two schemas of score function are designed via a position-adaptive mecha- nism. Experimental results on public datasets demonstrate that our model can produce expressive knowledge embedding and significantly outperforms most of the state-of-the-art works. 1 Introduction Large scale knowledge graphs such as DBpedia (Auer et al., 2007), Freebase (Bollacker et al., 2008), and YAGO (Suchanek et al., 2007), have been shown useful to many applications including natural language understanding (Wang et al., 2017), question answering (Mohammed et al., 2018), and recommender systems (Wang et al., 2019). Knowledge graphs (KGs) (Dong et al., 2014; Hogan et al., 2020) are multi- relational graphs containing much factual information in the form of a triple (h, r, t), where h represents the head entity, t represents the tail entity, and r represents the relationship between h and t. Although the symbolic form of triples effectively represents structured data, it makes KGs hard to calculate se- mantic similarity between entities and relations. In this paper, we focus specifically on knowledge graph embedding, which maps entities and relations into low-dimensional vector space while preserving the inherent structures of entities and relations. There are diverse relations in KGs. Figure 1 shows symmetric and antisymmetric relational patterns in a KG. Barack Obama and Michelle Obama are in a marriage relation, and vice versa, therefore, marriage is a symmetric relation. For another case, Barack Obama Sr. is the father of Barack Obama but Barack Obama is not the father of Barack Obama Sr., thus father of is an antisymmetric relation. In addition, there are also different relational categories in Figure 1, which are one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to- one, and many-to-many. For example, both Barack Obama and Michelle Obama are doctorate of J.D. (Juris Doctor), which belongs to many-to-one relational category. The alma mater of Barack Obama are Columbia University and Harvard University, which belongs to one-to-many relational category. Many existing models are effective to process different relational categories. TransE (Bordes et al., 2013) interprets the relation as a translation operation on entities in the low-dimensional …
