Many knowledge repositories nowadays contain billions of triplets, i.e. (head-entity, relationship, tail-entity), as relation instances. These triplets form a directed graph with entities as nodes and relationships as edges. However, this kind of symbolic and discrete storage structure makes it difficult for us to exploit the knowledge to enhance other intelligenceacquired applications (e.g. the QuestionAnswering System), as many AI-related algorithms prefer conducting computation on continuous data. Therefore, a series of emerging approaches have been proposed to facilitate knowledge computing via encoding the knowledge graph into a low-dimensional embedding space. TransE is the latest and most promising approach among them, and can achieve a higher performance with fewer parameters by modeling the relationship as a transitional vector from the head entity to the tail entity. Unfortunately, it is not flexible enough to tackle well with the various mapping properties of triplets, even though its authors spot the harm on performance. In this paper, we thus propose a superior model called TransM to leverage the structure of the knowledge graph via pre-calculating the distinct weight for each training triplet according to its relational mapping property. In this way, the optimal function deals with each triplet depending on its own weight. We carry out extensive experiments to compare TransM with the state-of-the-art method TransE and other prior arts. The performance of each approach is evaluated within two different application scenarios on several benchmark datasets. Results show that the model we proposed significantly outperforms the former ones with lower parameter complexity as TransE.
TransM REF exploits the structure of the whole knowledge graph, and adjusts the learning rate, which is specific to each relation based on the multiple mapping property of the relation.
