The metadata about scientific experiments published in online repositories have been shown to suffer from a high degree of representational heterogeneity—there are often many ways to represent the same type of information, such as a geographical location via its latitude and longitude. To harness the potential that metadata have for discovering scientific data, it is crucial that they be represented in a uniform way that can be queried effectively. One step toward uniformly-represented metadata is to normalize the multiple, distinct field names used in metadata (e.g., lat lon, lat and long) to describe the same type of value. To that end, we present a new method based on clustering and embeddings (i.e., vector representations of words) to align metadata field names with ontology terms. We apply our method to biomedical metadata by generating embeddings for terms in biomedical ontologies from the BioPortal repository. We carried out a comparative study between our method and the NCBO Annotator, which revealed that our method yields more and substantially better alignments between metadata and ontology terms.
There are several recent methods to generate embeddings for entities in an RDF graph or OWL ontology. These embeddings, often called knowledge graph embeddings, require triples of the form @math @math . Translation-based methods represent each @math or @math entity as a point in a vector space, and the @math represents a vector translation function in a hyperplane (i.e., the @math entity vector can be translated to the @math entity vector, using a geometrical function over the @math vector) @cite_4 @cite_14 @cite_8 . Other methods to generate these knowledge graph embeddings are inspired by language modeling approaches, which rely on sequences of words in a text corpus---that is, random walks are carried out on an RDF graph to generate sequences of entities in nearby proximity, and these sequences can be used to generate latent numerical representations of entities @cite_1 . While these methods have been effective for link prediction in knowledge graphs, triple classification, and fact extraction, they cannot be used to assess semantic similarity of different terms by examining how they are used in the context of literature.

Knowledge graph completion aims to perform link prediction between entities. In this paper, we consider the approach of knowledge graph embeddings. Recently, models such as TransE and TransH build entity and relation embeddings by regarding a relation as translation from head entity to tail entity. We note that these models simply put both entities and relations within the same semantic space. In fact, an entity may have multiple aspects and various relations may focus on different aspects of entities, which makes a common space insufficient for modeling. In this paper, we propose TransR to build entity and relation embeddings in separate entity space and relation spaces. Afterwards, we learn embeddings by first projecting entities from entity space to corresponding relation space and then building translations between projected entities. In experiments, we evaluate our models on three tasks including link prediction, triple classification and relational fact extraction. Experimental results show significant and consistent improvements compared to state-of-the-art baselines including TransE and TransH. The source code of this paper can be obtained from https: github.com mrlyk423 relation_extraction. This paper proposes a novel translation-based knowledge graph embedding that preserves the logical properties of relations such as transitivity and symmetricity. The embedding space generated by existing translation-based embeddings do not represent transitive and symmetric relations precisely, because they ignore the role of entities in triples. Thus, we introduce a role-specific projection which maps an entity to distinct vectors according to its role in a triple. That is, a head entity is projected onto an embedding space by a head projection operator, and a tail entity is projected by a tail projection operator. This idea is applied to TransE, TransR, and TransD to produce lppTransE, lppTransR, and lppTransD, respectively. According to the experimental results on link prediction and triple classification, the proposed logical property preserving embeddings show the state-of-the-art performance at both tasks. These results prove that it is critical to preserve logical properties of relations while embedding knowledge graphs, and the proposed method does it effectively. Recently, knowledge graph embedding, which projects symbolic entities and relations into continuous vector space, has become a new, hot topic in artificial intelligence. This paper addresses a new issue of multiple relation semantics that a relation may have multiple meanings revealed by the entity pairs associated with the corresponding triples, and proposes a novel Gaussian mixture model for embedding, TransG. The new model can discover latent semantics for a relation and leverage a mixture of relation component vectors for embedding a fact triple. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first generative model for knowledge graph embedding, which is able to deal with multiple relation semantics. Extensive experiments show that the proposed model achieves substantial improvements against the state-of-the-art baselines. We examine the embedding approach to reason new relational facts from a largescale knowledge graph and a text corpus. We propose a novel method of jointly embedding entities and words into the same continuous vector space. The embedding process attempts to preserve the relations between entities in the knowledge graph and the concurrences of words in the text corpus. Entity names and Wikipedia anchors are utilized to align the embeddings of entities and words in the same space. Large scale experiments on Freebase and a Wikipedia NY Times corpus show that jointly embedding brings promising improvement in the accuracy of predicting facts, compared to separately embedding knowledge graphs and text. Particularly, jointly embedding enables the prediction of facts containing entities out of the knowledge graph, which cannot be handled by previous embedding methods. At the same time, concerning the quality of the word embeddings, experiments on the analogical reasoning task show that jointly embedding is comparable to or slightly better than word2vec (Skip-Gram).
