Abstract

Knowledge graph embedding improves the performance of relation extraction and knowledge reasoning by encoding entities and relationships in low-dimensional semantic space. During training, negative samples are usually constructed by replacing the head/tail entity. And the different replacing relationships lead to different accuracy of the prediction results. This paper develops a negative triplets construction framework according to the frequency of relational association entities. The proposed construction framework can fully consider the quantitative of relations and entities in the dataset to assign the proportion of relation and entity replacement and the frequency of the entities associated with each relationship to set reasonable proportions for different relations. To verify the validity of the proposed construction framework, it is integrated into the state-of-the-art knowledge graph embedding models, such as TransE, TransH, DistMult, ComplEx, and Analogy. And both the evaluation criteria of relation prediction and entity prediction are used to evaluate the performance of link prediction more comprehensively. The experimental results on two commonly used datasets, WN18 and FB15K, show that the proposed method improves entity link and triplet classification accuracy, especially the accuracy of relational link prediction.
