TranS: Transition-based Knowledge Graph Embedding with Synthetic Relation Representation

Abstract

Knowledge graph embedding (KGE) aims to learn continuous vectors of relations and entities in knowledge graph. Recently, transition-based KGE methods have achieved promising performance, where the single relation vector learns to translate head entity to tail entity. However, this scoring pattern is not suitable for complex scenarios where the same entity pair has different relations. Previous models usually focus on the improvement of entity representation for 1-to-N, N-to-1 and N-to-N relations, but ignore the single relation vector. In this paper, we propose a novel transition-based method, TranS, for knowledge graph embedding. The single relation vector in traditional scoring patterns is replaced with synthetic relation representation, which can solve these issues effectively and efficiently. Experiments on a large knowledge graph dataset, ogbl-wikikg2, show that our model achieves state-of-the-art results.
