Sampled in Pairs and Driven by Text: A New Graph Embedding Framework
In graphs with rich texts, incorporating textual information with structural
information would benefit constructing expressive graph embeddings. Among
various graph embedding models, random walk (RW)-based is one of the most
popular and successful groups. However, it is challenged by two issues when
applied on graphs with rich texts: (i) sampling efficiency: deriving from the
training objective of RW-based models (e.g., DeepWalk and node2vec), we show
that RW-based models are likely to generate large amounts of redundant training
samples due to three main drawbacks. (ii) text utilization: these models have
difficulty in dealing with zero-shot scenarios where graph embedding models
have to infer graph structures directly from texts. To solve these problems, we
propose a novel framework, namely Text-driven Graph Embedding with Pairs
Sampling (TGE-PS). TGE-PS uses Pairs Sampling (PS) to improve the sampling
strategy of RW, being able to reduce ~99% training samples while preserving
competitive performance. TGE-PS uses Text-driven Graph Embedding (TGE), an
inductive graph embedding approach, to generate node embeddings from texts.
Since each node contains rich texts, TGE is able to generate high-quality
embeddings and provide reasonable predictions on existence of links to unseen
nodes. We evaluate TGE-PS on several real-world datasets, and experiment
results demonstrate that TGE-PS produces state-of-the-art results on both
traditional and zero-shot link prediction tasks.Comment: Accepted by WWW 2019 (The World Wide Web Conference. ACM, 2019
edge2vec: Representation learning using edge semantics for biomedical knowledge discovery
Representation learning provides new and powerful graph analytical approaches
and tools for the highly valued data science challenge of mining knowledge
graphs. Since previous graph analytical methods have mostly focused on
homogeneous graphs, an important current challenge is extending this
methodology for richly heterogeneous graphs and knowledge domains. The
biomedical sciences are such a domain, reflecting the complexity of biology,
with entities such as genes, proteins, drugs, diseases, and phenotypes, and
relationships such as gene co-expression, biochemical regulation, and
biomolecular inhibition or activation. Therefore, the semantics of edges and
nodes are critical for representation learning and knowledge discovery in real
world biomedical problems. In this paper, we propose the edge2vec model, which
represents graphs considering edge semantics. An edge-type transition matrix is
trained by an Expectation-Maximization approach, and a stochastic gradient
descent model is employed to learn node embedding on a heterogeneous graph via
the trained transition matrix. edge2vec is validated on three biomedical domain
tasks: biomedical entity classification, compound-gene bioactivity prediction,
and biomedical information retrieval. Results show that by considering
edge-types into node embedding learning in heterogeneous graphs,
\textbf{edge2vec}\ significantly outperforms state-of-the-art models on all
three tasks. We propose this method for its added value relative to existing
graph analytical methodology, and in the real world context of biomedical
knowledge discovery applicability.Comment: 10 page
Word-Entity Duet Representations for Document Ranking
This paper presents a word-entity duet framework for utilizing knowledge
bases in ad-hoc retrieval. In this work, the query and documents are modeled by
word-based representations and entity-based representations. Ranking features
are generated by the interactions between the two representations,
incorporating information from the word space, the entity space, and the
cross-space connections through the knowledge graph. To handle the
uncertainties from the automatically constructed entity representations, an
attention-based ranking model AttR-Duet is developed. With back-propagation
from ranking labels, the model learns simultaneously how to demote noisy
entities and how to rank documents with the word-entity duet. Evaluation
results on TREC Web Track ad-hoc task demonstrate that all of the four-way
interactions in the duet are useful, the attention mechanism successfully
steers the model away from noisy entities, and together they significantly
outperform both word-based and entity-based learning to rank systems
Knowledge-based Biomedical Data Science 2019
Knowledge-based biomedical data science (KBDS) involves the design and
implementation of computer systems that act as if they knew about biomedicine.
Such systems depend on formally represented knowledge in computer systems,
often in the form of knowledge graphs. Here we survey the progress in the last
year in systems that use formally represented knowledge to address data science
problems in both clinical and biological domains, as well as on approaches for
creating knowledge graphs. Major themes include the relationships between
knowledge graphs and machine learning, the use of natural language processing,
and the expansion of knowledge-based approaches to novel domains, such as
Chinese Traditional Medicine and biodiversity.Comment: Manuscript 43 pages with 3 tables; Supplemental material 43 pages

A Survey on Knowledge Graphs: Representation, Acquisition and Applications
Human knowledge provides a formal understanding of the world. Knowledge
graphs that represent structural relations between entities have become an
increasingly popular research direction towards cognition and human-level
intelligence. In this survey, we provide a comprehensive review of knowledge
graph covering overall research topics about 1) knowledge graph representation
learning, 2) knowledge acquisition and completion, 3) temporal knowledge graph,
and 4) knowledge-aware applications, and summarize recent breakthroughs and
perspective directions to facilitate future research. We propose a full-view
categorization and new taxonomies on these topics. Knowledge graph embedding is
organized from four aspects of representation space, scoring function, encoding
models, and auxiliary information. For knowledge acquisition, especially
knowledge graph completion, embedding methods, path inference, and logical rule
reasoning, are reviewed. We further explore several emerging topics, including
meta relational learning, commonsense reasoning, and temporal knowledge graphs.
To facilitate future research on knowledge graphs, we also provide a curated
collection of datasets and open-source libraries on different tasks. In the
end, we have a thorough outlook on several promising research directions
