Abstract

En 中文

A great many practical applications have observed knowledge evolution, i.e., continuous born of new knowledge, with its formation influenced by the structure of historical knowledge. This observation gives rise to evolving knowledge graphs whose structure temporally grows over time. However, both the modal characterization and the algorithmic implementation of evolving knowledge graphs remain unexplored. To this end, we propose EvolveKG-a general framework that enables algorithms in the static knowledge graphs to learn the evolving ones. EvolveKG quantifies the influence of a historical fact on a current one, called the effectiveness of the fact, and makes knowledge prediction by leveraging all the cross-time knowledge interaction. The novelty of EvolveKG lies in Derivative Graph-a weighted snapshot of evolution at a certain time. Particularly, each weight quantifies knowledge effectiveness through a temporarily decaying function of consistency and attenuation, two proposed factors depicting whether or not the effectiveness of a fact fades away with time. Besides, considering both knowledge creation and loss, we obtain higher prediction accuracy when the effectiveness of all the facts increases with time or remains unchanged. Under four real datasets, the superiority of EvolveKG is confirmed in prediction accuracy.
