TL;DR
This paper introduces EREM, an EM-based model that jointly optimizes entity and relation alignment to achieve more complete knowledge graph integration, outperforming existing methods.
Contribution
It conceptualizes relation alignment as a separate task and develops a joint optimization framework to enhance overall knowledge graph alignment.
Findings
EREM outperforms state-of-the-art models in entity alignment.
EREM effectively aligns relations across knowledge graphs.
Joint optimization improves overall KGA performance.
Abstract
Knowledge Graph Alignment (KGA) aims to integrate knowledge from multiple sources to address the limitations of individual Knowledge Graphs (KGs) in terms of coverage and depth. However, current KGA models fall short in achieving a ``complete'' knowledge graph alignment. Existing models primarily emphasize the linkage of cross-graph entities but overlook aligning relations across KGs, thereby providing only a partial solution to KGA. The semantic correlations embedded in relations are largely overlooked, potentially restricting a comprehensive understanding of cross-KG signals. In this paper, we propose to conceptualize relation alignment as an independent task and conduct KGA by decomposing it into two distinct but highly correlated sub-tasks: entity alignment and relation alignment. To capture the mutually reinforcing correlations between these objectives, we propose a novel…
