Representation learning (RL) for social networks facilitates real-world tasks such as visualization, link prediction and friend recommendation. Traditional knowledge graph embedding models learn continuous low-dimensional embedding of entities and relations. However, when applied to social networks, existing approaches do not consider the rich textual communications between users, which contains valuable information to describe social relationships. In this paper, we propose TransConv, a novel approach that incorporates textual interactions between pair of users to improve representation learning of both users and relationships. Our experiments on real social network data show TransConv learns better user and relationship embeddings compared to other state-of-theart knowledge graph embedding models. Moreover, the results illustrate that our model is more robust for sparse relationships where there are fewer examples.

The representation learning of the knowledge graph projects the entities and relationships in the triples into a low-dimensional continuous vector space. Early representation learning mostly focused on the information contained in the triplet itself but ignored other useful information. Since entities have different types of representations in different scenarios, the rich information in the types of entity levels is helpful for obtaining a more complete knowledge representation. In this paper, a new knowledge representation frame (TRKRL) combining rule path information and entity hierarchical type information is proposed to exploit interpretability of logical rules and the advantages of entity hierarchical types. Specifically, for entity hierarchical type information, we consider that entities have multiple representations of different types, as well as treat it as the projection matrix of entities, using the type encoder to model entity hierarchical types. For rule path information, we mine Horn rules from the knowledge graph to guide the synthesis of relations in paths. Experimental results show that TRKRL outperforms baselines on the knowledge graph completion task, which indicates that our model is capable of using entity hierarchical type information, relation paths information, and logic rules information for representation learning.

Knowledge graph embedding aims to embed entities and relations into low-dimensional vector spaces. Most existing methods only focus on triple facts in knowledge graphs. In addition, models based on translation or distance measurement cannot fully represent complex relations. As well-constructed prior knowledge, entity types can be employed to learn the representations of entities and relations. In this paper, we propose a novel knowledge graph embedding model named TransET, which takes advantage of entity types to learn more semantic features. More specifically, circle convolution based on the embeddings of entity and entity types is utilized to map head entity and tail entity to type-specific representations, then translation-based score function is used to learn the presentation triples. We evaluated our model on real-world datasets with two benchmark tasks of link prediction and triple classification. Experimental results demonstrate that it outperforms state-of-the-art models in most cases.

Abstract Research on graph representation learning has received great attention in recent years since most data in real-world applications come in the form of graphs. High-dimensional graph data are often in irregular forms. They are more difficult to analyze than image/video/audio data defined on regular lattices. Various graph embedding techniques have been developed to convert the raw graph data into a low-dimensional vector representation while preserving the intrinsic graph properties. In this review, we first explain the graph embedding task and its challenges. Next, we review a wide range of graph embedding techniques with insights. Then, we evaluate several stat-of-the-art methods against small and large data sets and compare their performance. Finally, potential applications and future directions are presented.

In psychological science, egocentered social networks are assessed to investigate the patterning and development of social relationships. In this approach, a focal individual is typically asked to report the people they interact with in specific contexts and to provide additional information on those interaction partners and the relationships with them. While egocentered social networks hold considerable promise to investigate various interesting questions from psychology and beyond, their implementation can be challenging. This tutorial provides researchers with detailed instructions on how to set up a study involving egocentered social networks online using the open-source software formr. By including a fully functional study template for the assessment of social networks and extensions to this design, we hope to equip researchers from different backgrounds with the tools necessary to collect social network data tailored to their research needs.

Knowledge bases such as Freebase, YAGO, DBPedia, and Nell contain a number of facts with various entities and relations. Since they store many facts, they are regarded as core resources for many natural language processing tasks. Nevertheless, they are not normally complete and have many missing facts. Such missing facts keep them from being used in diverse applications in spite of their usefulness. Therefore, it is significant to complete knowledge bases. Knowledge graph embedding is one of the promising approaches to completing a knowledge base and thus many variants of knowledge graph embedding have been proposed. It maps all entities and relations in knowledge base onto a low dimensional vector space. Then, candidate facts that are plausible in the space are determined as missing facts. However, any single knowledge graph embedding is insufficient to complete a knowledge base. As a solution to this problem, this paper defines knowledge base completion as a ranking task and proposes a committee-based knowledge graph embedding model for improving the performance of knowledge base completion. Since each knowledge graph embedding has its own idiosyncrasy, we make up a committee of various knowledge graph embeddings to reflect various perspectives. After ranking all candidate facts according to their plausibility computed by the committee, the top-k facts are chosen as missing facts. Our experimental results on two data sets show that the proposed model achieves higher performance than any single knowledge graph embedding and shows robust performances regardless of k. These results prove that the proposed model considers various perspectives in measuring the plausibility of candidate facts.

Explicit and implicit knowledge about users and items have been used to describe complex and heterogeneous side information for recommender systems (RSs). Many existing methods use knowledge graph embedding (KGE) to learn the representation of a user-item knowledge graph (KG) in low-dimensional space. In this article, we propose a lightweight end-to-end joint learning framework for fusing the tasks of KGE and RSs at the model level. Our method proposes a lightweight KG embedding method by using bidirectional bijection relation-type modeling to enable scalability for large graphs while using self-adaptive negative sampling to optimize negative sample generating. Our method further generates the integrated views for users and items based on relation-types to explicitly model users’ preferences and items’ features, respectively. Finally, we add virtual “recommendation” relations between the integrated views of users and items to model the preferences of users on items, seamlessly integrating RS with user-item KG over a unified graph. Experimental results on multiple datasets and benchmarks show that our method can achieve a better accuracy of recommendation compared with existing state-of-the-art methods. Complexity and runtime analysis suggests that our method can gain a lower time and space complexity than most of existing methods and improve scalability.

As the scale of software systems continues expanding, software architecture is receiving more and more attention as the blueprint for the complex software system. An outstanding architecture requires a lot of professional experience and expertise. In current practice, architects try to find solutions manually, which is time-consuming and error-prone because of the knowledge barrier between newcomers and experienced architects. The problem can be solved by easing the process of apply experience from prominent architects. To this end, this paper proposes a novel graph-embedding-based method, AI-CTO, to automatically suggest software stack solutions according to the knowledge and experience of prominent architects. Firstly, AI-CTO converts existing industry experience to knowledge, i.e., knowledge graph. Secondly, the knowledge graph is embedded in a low-dimensional vector space. Then, the entity vectors are used to predict valuable software stack solutions by an SVM model. We evaluate AI-CTO with two case studies and compare its solutions with the software stacks of large companies. The experiment results show that AI-CTO can find effective and correct stack solutions and it outperforms other baseline methods.

AbstractKnowledge graphs are typical multi-relational structures, which is consisted of many entities and relations. Nonetheless, existing knowledge graphs are still sparse and far from being complete. To refine the knowledge graphs, representation learning is utilized to embed entities and relations into low-dimensional spaces. Many existing knowledge graphs embedding models focus on learning latent features in close-world assumption but omit the changeable of each knowledge graph.In this paper, we propose a knowledge graph representation learning model, called Caps-OWKG, which leverages the capsule network to capture the both known and unknown triplets features in open-world knowledge graph. It combines the descriptive text and knowledge graph to get descriptive embedding and structural embedding, simultaneously. Then, the both above embeddings are used to calculate the probability of triplet authenticity. We verify the performance of Caps-OWKG on link prediction task with two common datasets FB15k-237-OWE and DBPedia50k. The experimental results are better than other baselines, and achieve the state-of-the-art performance.
