Abstract:Most knowledge graph embedding (KGE) methods tailored for link prediction focus on the entities and relations in the graph, giving little attention to other literal values, which might encode important information. Therefore, some literal-aware KGE models attempt to either integrate numerical values into the embeddings of the entities or convert these numerics into entities during preprocessing, leading to information loss. Other methods concerned with creating relation-specific numerical features assume completeness of numerical data, which does not apply to real-world graphs. In this work, we propose ReaLitE, a novel relation-centric KGE model that dynamically aggregates and merges entities' numerical attributes with the embeddings of the connecting relations. ReaLitE is designed to complement existing conventional KGE methods while supporting multiple variations for numerical aggregations, including a learnable method. We comprehensively evaluated the proposed relation-centric embedding using several benchmarks for link prediction and node classification tasks. The results showed the superiority of ReaLitE over the state of the art in both tasks.
Abstract:The International Semantic Web Research School (ISWS) is a week-long intensive program designed to immerse participants in the field. This document reports a collaborative effort performed by ten teams of students, each guided by a senior researcher as their mentor, attending ISWS 2023. Each team provided a different perspective to the topic of creative AI, substantiated by a set of research questions as the main subject of their investigation. The 2023 edition of ISWS focuses on the intersection of Semantic Web technologies and Creative AI. ISWS 2023 explored various intersections between Semantic Web technologies and creative AI. A key area of focus was the potential of LLMs as support tools for knowledge engineering. Participants also delved into the multifaceted applications of LLMs, including legal aspects of creative content production, humans in the loop, decentralised approaches to multimodal generative AI models, nanopublications and AI for personal scientific knowledge graphs, commonsense knowledge in automatic story and narrative completion, generative AI for art critique, prompt engineering, automatic music composition, commonsense prototyping and conceptual blending, and elicitation of tacit knowledge. As Large Language Models and semantic technologies continue to evolve, new exciting prospects are emerging: a future where the boundaries between creative expression and factual knowledge become increasingly permeable and porous, leading to a world of knowledge that is both informative and inspiring.
Abstract:Many machine learning (ML) libraries are accessible online for ML practitioners. Typical ML pipelines are complex and consist of a series of steps, each of them invoking several ML libraries. In this demo paper, we present ExeKGLib, a Python library that allows users with coding skills and minimal ML knowledge to build ML pipelines. ExeKGLib relies on knowledge graphs to improve the transparency and reusability of the built ML workflows, and to ensure that they are executable. We demonstrate the usage of ExeKGLib and compare it with conventional ML code to show its benefits.
