Efficient Parallel Translating Embedding For Knowledge Graphs
  Knowledge graph embedding aims to embed entities and relations of knowledge
graphs into low-dimensional vector spaces. Translating embedding methods regard
relations as the translation from head entities to tail entities, which achieve
the state-of-the-art results among knowledge graph embedding methods. However,
a major limitation of these methods is the time consuming training process,
which may take several days or even weeks for large knowledge graphs, and
result in great difficulty in practical applications. In this paper, we propose
an efficient parallel framework for translating embedding methods, called
ParTrans-X, which enables the methods to be paralleled without locks by
utilizing the distinguished structures of knowledge graphs. Experiments on two
datasets with three typical translating embedding methods, i.e., TransE [3],
TransH [17], and a more efficient variant TransE- AdaGrad [10] validate that
ParTrans-X can speed up the training process by more than an order of
magnitude.
