Modeling relation paths for knowledge base completion via joint adversarial training
Knowledge Base Completion (KBC), which aims at determining the missing
relations between entity pairs, has received increasing attention in recent
years. Most existing KBC methods focus on either embedding the Knowledge Base
(KB) into a specific semantic space or leveraging the joint probability of
Random Walks (RWs) on multi-hop paths. Only a few unified models take both
semantic and path-related features into consideration with adequacy. In this
paper, we propose a novel method to explore the intrinsic relationship between
the single relation (i.e. 1-hop path) and multi-hop paths between paired
entities. We use Hierarchical Attention Networks (HANs) to select important
relations in multi-hop paths and encode them into low-dimensional vectors. By
treating relations and multi-hop paths as two different input sources, we use a
feature extractor, which is shared by two downstream components (i.e. relation
classifier and source discriminator), to capture shared/similar information
between them. By joint adversarial training, we encourage our model to extract
features from the multi-hop paths which are representative for relation
completion. We apply the trained model (except for the source discriminator) to
several large-scale KBs for relation completion. Experimental results show that
our method outperforms existing path information-based approaches. Since each
sub-module of our model can be well interpreted, our model can be applied to a
large number of relation learning tasks.Comment: Accepted by Knowledge-Based System
Context-aware Path Ranking for Knowledge Base Completion
Knowledge base (KB) completion aims to infer missing facts from existing ones
in a KB. Among various approaches, path ranking (PR) algorithms have received
increasing attention in recent years. PR algorithms enumerate paths between
entity pairs in a KB and use those paths as features to train a model for
missing fact prediction. Due to their good performances and high model
interpretability, several methods have been proposed. However, most existing
methods suffer from scalability (high RAM consumption) and feature explosion
(trains on an exponentially large number of features) problems. This paper
proposes a Context-aware Path Ranking (C-PR) algorithm to solve these problems
by introducing a selective path exploration strategy. C-PR learns global
semantics of entities in the KB using word embedding and leverages the
knowledge of entity semantics to enumerate contextually relevant paths using
bidirectional random walk. Experimental results on three large KBs show that
the path features (fewer in number) discovered by C-PR not only improve
predictive performance but also are more interpretable than existing baselines
STransE: a novel embedding model of entities and relationships in knowledge bases
Knowledge bases of real-world facts about entities and their relationships
are useful resources for a variety of natural language processing tasks.
However, because knowledge bases are typically incomplete, it is useful to be
able to perform link prediction or knowledge base completion, i.e., predict
whether a relationship not in the knowledge base is likely to be true. This
paper combines insights from several previous link prediction models into a new
embedding model STransE that represents each entity as a low-dimensional
vector, and each relation by two matrices and a translation vector. STransE is
a simple combination of the SE and TransE models, but it obtains better link
prediction performance on two benchmark datasets than previous embedding
models. Thus, STransE can serve as a new baseline for the more complex models
in the link prediction task.Comment: V1: In Proceedings of the 2016 Conference of the North American

An Interpretable Knowledge Transfer Model for Knowledge Base Completion
Knowledge bases are important resources for a variety of natural language
processing tasks but suffer from incompleteness. We propose a novel embedding
model, \emph{ITransF}, to perform knowledge base completion. Equipped with a
sparse attention mechanism, ITransF discovers hidden concepts of relations and
transfer statistical strength through the sharing of concepts. Moreover, the
learned associations between relations and concepts, which are represented by
sparse attention vectors, can be interpreted easily. We evaluate ITransF on two
benchmark datasets---WN18 and FB15k for knowledge base completion and obtains
improvements on both the mean rank and Hits@10 metrics, over all baselines that
do not use additional information.Comment: Accepted by ACL 2017. Minor updat
Performing Hybrid Recommendation in Intermodal Transportation – the FTMarket System’s Recommendation Module
Diverse recommendation techniques have been already proposed and encapsulated into several e-business applications, aiming to perform a more accurate evaluation of the existing information and accordingly augment the assistance provided to the users involved. This paper reports on the development and integration of a recommendation module in an agent-based transportation transactions management system. The module is built according to a novel hybrid recommendation technique, which combines the advantages of collaborative filtering and knowledge-based approaches. The proposed technique and supporting module assist customers in considering in detail alternative transportation transactions that satisfy their requests, as well as in evaluating completed transactions. The related services are invoked through a software agent that constructs the appropriate knowledge rules and performs a synthesis of the recommendation policy
Expert system decision support for low-cost launch vehicle operations
Progress in assessing the feasibility, benefits, and risks associated with AI expert systems applied to low cost expendable launch vehicle systems is described. Part one identified potential application areas in vehicle operations and on-board functions, assessed measures of cost benefit, and identified key technologies to aid in the implementation of decision support systems in this environment. Part two of the program began the development of prototypes to demonstrate real-time vehicle checkout with controller and diagnostic/analysis intelligent systems and to gather true measures of cost savings vs. conventional software, verification and validation requirements, and maintainability improvement. The main objective of the expert advanced development projects was to provide a robust intelligent system for control/analysis that must be performed within a specified real-time window in order to meet the demands of the given application. The efforts to develop the two prototypes are described. Prime emphasis was on a controller expert system to show real-time performance in a cryogenic propellant loading application and safety validation implementation of this system experimentally, using commercial-off-the-shelf software tools and object oriented programming techniques. This smart ground support equipment prototype is based in C with imbedded expert system rules written in the CLIPS protocol. The relational database, ORACLE, provides non-real-time data support. The second demonstration develops the vehicle/ground intelligent automation concept, from phase one, to show cooperation between multiple expert systems. This automated test conductor (ATC) prototype utilizes a knowledge-bus approach for intelligent information processing by use of virtual sensors and blackboards to solve complex problems. It incorporates distributed processing of real-time data and object-oriented techniques for command, configuration control, and auto-code generation
