Relation Discovery with Out-of-Relation Knowledge Base as Supervision
Unsupervised relation discovery aims to discover new relations from a given
text corpus without annotated data. However, it does not consider existing
human annotated knowledge bases even when they are relevant to the relations to
be discovered. In this paper, we study the problem of how to use
out-of-relation knowledge bases to supervise the discovery of unseen relations,
where out-of-relation means that relations to discover from the text corpus and
those in knowledge bases are not overlapped. We construct a set of constraints
between entity pairs based on the knowledge base embedding and then incorporate
constraints into the relation discovery by a variational auto-encoder based
algorithm. Experiments show that our new approach can improve the
state-of-the-art relation discovery performance by a large margin.Comment: Aceepted by NAACL-HLT 201
