To lower the level of supervision, several semi-supervised approaches have been developed, including bootstrapping, active learning, label propagation (Pawar et al., 2017) . Mintz (2009) also proposes distant supervision to generate training data automatically. It assumes that if two entities have a relation in KBs, all sentences that contain these two entities will express this relation. Still, all these approaches can only extract pre-defined relations that have already appeared either in human-annotated datasets or KBs.

In classification problems, a well-classified embedding space usually reserves large margins between different classified clusters, and optimizing margin can be a promising way to facilitate training.

Intuitively, when the distance similarity p between two relational instances equals 0.5, there is a high prob-ability that at least one of two instances is near the decision boundary between relation clusters.

To study this influence, we use FewRel for evaluation and change the number of relations in the labeled train set from 40 to 64 while fixing the total num-ber of labeled instances to 25, 000, and report the clustering results in Figure 5 . Several conclusions can be drawn according to Figure 5 . Firstly, a rich variety of labeled relations do improve the performance of our models, especially RSN. The models trained on 64 relations perform better than those trained on 40 relations constantly. Secondly, while the performance of supervised RSN is very sensitive to pre-defined relation diversity, its semi-supervised counterparts suffer much less from the relation number limit. This phenomenon suggests that Semi-supervised RSNs succeed in learning from unlabeled novelrelation data and are more generalizable to novel relations.",
