Compositional Learning of Relation Path Embedding for Knowledge Base Completion

no code implementations22 Nov 2016 Xixun Lin, Yanchun Liang, Fausto Giunchiglia, Xiaoyue Feng, Renchu Guan

In this paper, we study the problem of how to better embed entities and relations of knowledge bases into different low-dimensional spaces by taking full advantage of the additional semantics of relation paths, and we propose a compositional learning model of relation path embedding (RPE).

TrentoTeam at SemEval-2017 Task 3: An application of Grice Maxims in Ranking Community Question Answers

no code implementations SEMEVAL 2017 Mohammed R. H. Qwaider, Abed Alhakim Freihat, Fausto Giunchiglia

In this paper we present the Tren-toTeam system which participated to thetask 3 at SemEval-2017 (Nakov et al., 2017). We concentrated our work onapplying Grice Maxims(used in manystate-of-the-art Machine learning applica-tions(Vogel et al., 2013; Kheirabadiand Aghagolzadeh, 2012; Dale and Re-iter, 1995; Franke, 2011)) to ranking an-swers of a question by answers relevancy. Particularly, we created a ranker systembased on relevancy scores, assigned by 3main components: Named entity recogni-tion, similarity score, sentiment analysis. Our system obtained a comparable resultsto Machine learning systems.

Stratified Data Integration

no code implementations19 May 2021 Fausto Giunchiglia, Alessio Zamboni, Mayukh Bagchi, Simone Bocca

We propose a novel approach to the problem of semantic heterogeneity where data are organized into a set of stratified and independent representation layers, namely: conceptual(where a set of unique alinguistic identifiers are connected inside a graph codifying their meaning), language(where sets of synonyms, possibly from multiple languages, annotate concepts), knowledge(in the form of a graph where nodes are entity types and links are properties), and data(in the form of a graph of entities populating the previous knowledge graph).
