Generalized Relation Learning with Semantic Correlation Awareness for
  Link Prediction
  Developing link prediction models to automatically complete knowledge graphs
has recently been the focus of significant research interest. The current
methods for the link prediction taskhavetwonaturalproblems:1)the relation
distributions in KGs are usually unbalanced, and 2) there are many unseen
relations that occur in practical situations. These two problems limit the
training effectiveness and practical applications of the existing link
prediction models. We advocate a holistic understanding of KGs and we propose
in this work a unified Generalized Relation Learning framework GRL to address
the above two problems, which can be plugged into existing link prediction
models. GRL conducts a generalized relation learning, which is aware of
semantic correlations between relations that serve as a bridge to connect
semantically similar relations. After training with GRL, the closeness of
semantically similar relations in vector space and the discrimination of
dissimilar relations are improved. We perform comprehensive experiments on six
benchmarks to demonstrate the superior capability of GRL in the link prediction
task. In particular, GRL is found to enhance the existing link prediction
models making them insensitive to unbalanced relation distributions and capable
of learning unseen relations.
