> In most knowledge graphs there are usually concise descriptions for entities, which cannot be well utilized by existing methods... Experimental results on real-world datasets show that, our method outperforms other baselines on the knowledge graph completion and entity classification tasks, especially under the zero-shot setting, which indicates that **our method is capable of building representations for novel entities according to their descriptions**. [Source code on github](https://github.com/xrb92/DKRL).

For fact triples: TransE. Meanwhile, given an entity we will also learn to maximize
the likelihood of predicting its description (using either CBOW or CNN encoder) (head + relation = tail, also in "text space")

Two types of representations for entities: structure-based
representations and description-based representations. They are learned simultaneously into the same
vector space but not forced to be unified **so that novel
entities with only descriptions can be represented**.

Tags:

A model that performs **text classification using entities in a knowledge base**.

> Entities provide unambiguous and relevant semantic signals that are beneficial for capturing semantics in texts. We combine **simple high-recall entity detection based on a dictionary** (word->list of entities), to detect entities in a document, with a novel neural **attention mechanism that enables the model to focus on a small number of unambiguous and relevant entities**.

2 steps:

1. Entity detection
2. Classification using the detected entities (+text) as inputs

Regarding entity linking, a local model which uses cosine
similarity between the embedding of the target
entity and the word-based representation of
the document to capture the relevance of an entity
given a document.

Embeddings from the KB: computed using [#Wikipedia2Vec](tag:wikipedia2vec) (similar words and entities
close to one another in a unified vector space)

Model using attention, with 2 features :

- cosine similarity between the
embedding of the entity and the word based
representation of the document
- the probability that the entity
name refers to the entity in KB.

### Conclusion:

>a neural
network model that performs text classification using
entities in Wikipedia. We combined simple
dictionary-based entity detection with a neural attention
mechanism to enable the model to focus
on a small number of unambiguous and relevant
entities in a document.

how to add a set of new concepts to an existing taxonomy.

[Tweet](https://twitter.com/mickeyjs6/status/1253772146142216194?s=20) [GitHub](https://github.com/mickeystroller/TaxoExpan)

> we study the taxonomy expansion task: given an
existing taxonomy and a set of new emerging concepts, we aim
to automatically expand the taxonomy to incorporate these new
concepts (without changing the existing relations in the given taxonomy).

> To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study on **how to
expand an existing directed acyclic graph (as we model a taxonomy
as a DAG) using self-supervised learning**.

Self-supervised framework, the existing taxonomy being used as training data: it learns a model to predict whether a query concept is the direct hyponym of an anchor concept.

> 2 techniques:
>
> 1. a **position-enhanced graph neural network that encodes the local structure of an anchor concept** in the existing taxonomy,
> 2. a noise-robust training objective that enables the learned model to be insensitive to the label noise in the self-supervision data.

Regarding 1: uses [GNN](/tag/graph_neural_networks.html) to model the "ego network" of concepts (potential “siblings”
and “grand parents” of the query concept).

> Regular
GNNs fail to distinguish nodes with different relative positions to
the query (i.e., some nodes are grand parents of the query while
the others are siblings of the query). To address this limitation, we
present a simple but effective enhancement to inject such position
information into GNNs using position embedding. We show that
such embedding can be easily integrated with existing GNN architectures
(e.g., [GCN](/tag/graph_convolutional_networks) and GAT) and significantly boosts the
prediction performance

Regarding point 2: uses InfoNCE loss, cf. [Contrastive Predictive Coding](/doc/?uri=https%3A%2F%2Farxiv.org%2Fabs%2F1807.03748)

> Instead of predicting
whether each individual ⟨query concept, anchor concept⟩ pair
is positive or not, we first group all pairs sharing the same query
concept into a single training instance and learn a model to select
the positive pair among other negative ones from the group.

(Hum, ça me rappelle quelque chose)

> assume each concept (in existing taxonomy + set of new concepts) has an initial embedding
vector learned from some text associated with this concept.

To keep things tractable, only attempts to find a single parent node of each new concept.

Most similar work: [Bordes et al.](http://127.0.0.1:8080/semanlink/doc/2019/08/learning_structured_embeddings_) (2011)

Contributions:

1. new neural tensor
network (**NTN**) suitable for reasoning over relationships between two entities. Generalizes several previous neural network models and provides a more
powerful way to model relational information than a standard neural network layer.
2. a new way to represent entities in knowledge bases, as the
average of  their constituting word vectorss, allowing the sharing of statistical strength between the words describing
each entity (e.g., Bank of China and China).
3. incorporation of word vectors which are trained on large unlabeled text

> We **learn to modify word representations
via grounding in world knowledge**. This essentially allows us to analyze word embeddings and
query them for specific relations. Furthermore, the resulting vectors could be used in other tasks
such as named entity recognition or relation classification in natural language

**Makes use of entity name**: NTN
first learns word vectors from an auxiliary news corpus, and
then initializes the representation of each entity by averaging
the vectors of words contained in its name. For example,
**the embedding of AlfredHitchcock is initialized by the
average word vectors of “alfred” and “hitchcock”**... This kind of methods model textual information
separately from KG facts, and hence fail to leverage
interactions between them.[src](doc:2019/05/knowledge_graph_embedding_a_su)

Enriching Word Embeddings Using Knowledge Graph for Semantic Tagging in Conversational Dialog Systems - Microsoft Research (2015)

> new simple, yet effective approaches to
learn domain specific word embeddings.

## Intro

> Adapting word embeddings, such as jointly capturing
syntactic and semantic information, can further enrich semantic
word representations for several tasks, e.g., sentiment
analysis (Tang et al. 2014), named entity recognition
(Lebret, Legrand, and Collobert 2013), entity-relation extraction
(Weston et al. 2013), etc. (Yu and Dredze 2014)
has introduced a lightly supervised word embedding learning
extending word2vec. They incorporate prior information to the objective
function as a regularization term considering synonymy relations
between words from Wordnet (Fellbaum 1999).

> In this work, we go one step further and investigate if
enriching the word2vec word embeddings trained on unstructured/
unlabeled text with domain specific semantic relations
obtained from knowledge sources (e.g., knowledge
graphs, search query logs, etc.) can help to discover relation
aware word embeddings. Unlike earlier work, **we encode the
information about the relations between phrases, thereby,
entities and relation mentions are all embedded into a low dimensional
vector space**.
