| 2024 | A New Pipeline for Knowledge Graph Reasoning Enhanced by Large Language Models Without Fine-TuningabstractConventional Knowledge Graph Reasoning (KGR) models learn the embeddings of KG components over the structure of KGs, but their performances are limited when the KGs are severely incomplete.Recent LLM-enhanced KGR models input KG structural information into LLMs.However, they require fine-tuning on open-source LLMs and are not applicable to closed-source LLMs.Therefore, in this paper, to leverage the knowledge in LLMs without fine-tuning to assist and enhance conventional KGR models, we propose a new three-stage pipeline, including knowledge alignment, KG reasoning and entity reranking.Specifically, in the alignment stage, we propose three strategies to align the knowledge in LLMs to the KG schema by explicitly associating unconnected nodes with semantic relations.Based on the enriched KGs, we train structure-aware KGR models to integrate aligned knowledge to original knowledge existing in KGs.In the reranking stage, after obtaining the results of KGR models, we rerank the top-scored entities with LLMs to recall correct answers further.Experiments show our pipeline can enhance the KGR performance in both incomplete and general situations.

| 2023 | Incorporating Structured Sentences with Time-enhanced BERT for Fully-inductive Temporal Relation PredictionabstractTemporal relation prediction in incomplete temporal knowledge graphs (TKGs) is a popular temporal knowledge graph completion (TKGC) problem in both transductive and inductive settings. Traditional embedding-based TKGC models (TKGE) rely on structured connections and can only handle a fixed set of entities, i.e., the transductive setting. In the inductive setting where test TKGs contain emerging entities, the latest methods are based on symbolic rules or pre-trained language models (PLMs). However, they suffer from being inflexible and not time-specific, respectively. In this work, we extend the fully-inductive setting, where entities in the training and test sets are totally disjoint, into TKGs and take a further step towards a more flexible and time-sensitive temporal relation prediction approach SST-BERT,incorporating Structured Sentences with Time-enhanced BERT. Our model can obtain the entity history and implicitly learn rules in the semantic space by encoding structured sentences, solving the problem of inflexibility. We propose to use a time masking MLM task to pre-train BERT in a corpus rich in temporal tokens specially generated for TKGs, enhancing the time sensitivity of SST-BERT. To compute the probability of occurrence of a target quadruple, we aggregate all its structured sentences from both temporal and semantic perspectives into a score. Experiments on the transductive datasets and newly generated fully-inductive benchmarks show that SST-BERT successfully improves over state-of-the-art baselines.

| 2023 | Meta-Learning Based Knowledge Extrapolation for Temporal Knowledge GraphabstractIn the last few years, the solution to Knowledge Graph (KG) completion via learning embeddings of entities and relations has attracted a surge of interest. Temporal KGs(TKGs) extend traditional Knowledge Graphs (KGs) by associating static triples with timestamps forming quadruples. Different from KGs and TKGs in the transductive setting, constantly emerging entities and relations in incomplete TKGs create demand to predict missing facts with unseen components, which is the extrapolation setting. Traditional temporal knowledge graph embedding (TKGE) methods are limited in the extrapolation setting since they are trained within a fixed set of components. In this paper, we propose a Meta-Learning based Temporal Knowledge Graph Extrapolation (MTKGE) model, which is trained on link prediction tasks sampled from the existing TKGs and tested in the emerging TKGs with unseen entities and relations. Specifically, we meta-train a GNN framework that captures relative position patterns and temporal sequence patterns between relations. The learned embeddings of patterns can be transferred to embed unseen components. Experimental results on two different TKG extrapolation datasets show that MTKGE consistently outperforms both the existing state-of-the-art models for knowledge graph extrapolation and specifically adapted KGE and TKGE baselines.

| 2022 | CNA: A Dataset for Parsing Discourse Structure on Chinese News ArticlesabstractDiscourse structure analysis has shown to be useful for many artificial intelligence (AI) tasks such as text sum-marization and text categorization. However, for the Chinese news domain, the discourse structure analysis system is still immature due to the limitation of the lack of expert-annotated datasets. In this paper, we present CNA, a Chinese news corpus containing 1155 news articles annotated by human experts, which covers four domains and four news media sources. Next, we implement several text classification methods as baselines. Experimental results demonstrate that document-level method can achieve a better performance, and we further propose a document-level neural network model with multiple sentence features which achieves the state-of-the-art performance. In the end, we analyze the content type distribution of each sentence in CNA and the prediction errors of our model that occurred on the test set. The codes and dataset will be open-sourced at https://github.com/gzl98/Chinese_Discourse_Profiling. Zhenliang Guo, Zhen Huang 0006, Yong Dou, Xiubin Yu, Zhongwu Chen, Xinxin Su |
