    Leveraging Literals for Knowledge Graph Embeddings
    (Aachen, Germany : RWTH Aachen, 2021) Gesese, Genet Asefa; Tamma, Valentina; Fernandez, Miriam; Poveda-Villalón, María
    Nowadays, Knowledge Graphs (KGs) have become invaluable for various applications such as named entity recognition, entity linking, question answering. However, there is a huge computational and storage cost associated with these KG-based applications. Therefore, there arises the necessity of transforming the high dimensional KGs into low dimensional vector spaces, i.e., learning representations for the KGs. Since a KG represents facts in the form of interrelations between entities and also using attributes of entities, the semantics present in both forms should be preserved while transforming the KG into a vector space. Hence, the main focus of this thesis is to deal with the multimodality and multilinguality of literals when utilizing them for the representation learning of KGs. The other task is to extract benchmark datasets with a high level of difficulty for tasks such as link prediction and triple classification. These datasets could be used for evaluating both kind of KG Embeddings, those using literals and those which do not include literals.

    Temporal Evolution of the Migration-related Topics on Social Media
    (Aachen, Germany : RWTH Aachen, 2021) Chen, Yiyi; Gesese, Genet Asefa; Sack, Harald; Alam, Mehwish; Seneviratne, Oshani; Pesquita, Catia; Sequeda, Juan; Etcheverry, Lorena
    This poster focuses on capturing the temporal evolution of migration-related topics on relevant tweets. It uses Dynamic Embedded Topic Model (DETM) as a learning algorithm to perform a quantitative and qualitative analysis of these emerging topics. TweetsKB is extended with the extracted Twitter dataset along with the results of DETM which considers temporality. These results are then further analyzed and visualized. It reveals that the trajectories of the migration-related topics are in agreement with historical events. The source codes are available online: https://bit.ly/3dN9ICB.

    Challenges of Applying Knowledge Graph and their Embeddings to a Real-world Use-case
    (Aachen, Germany : RWTH Aachen, 2021) Petzold, Rick; Gesese, Genet Asefa; Bogdanova, Viktoria; Zylowski, Thorsten; Sack, Harald; Alam, Mehwish; Alam, Mehwish; Buscaldi, Davide; Cochez, Michael; Osborne, Francesco; Reforgiato Recupero, Diego; Sack, Harald
    Different Knowledge Graph Embedding (KGE) models have been proposed so far which are trained on some specific KG completion tasks such as link prediction and evaluated on datasets which are mainly created for such purpose. Mostly, the embeddings learnt on link prediction tasks are not applied for downstream tasks in real-world use-cases such as data available in different companies/organizations. In this paper, the challenges with enriching a KG which is generated from a real-world relational database (RDB) about companies, with information from external sources such as Wikidata and learning representations for the KG are presented. Moreover, a comparative analysis is presented between the KGEs and various text embeddings on some downstream clustering tasks. The results of experiments indicate that in use-cases like the one used in this paper, where the KG is highly skewed, it is beneficial to use text embeddings or language models instead of KGEs.
