1. Internal Knowledge Graph Completion
– Predict missing facts by exploiting patterns in the graph
– Classic value imputation applied to knowledge graphs
– Symbolic methods
– Rule learning, e.g. AIME, AnyBURL
– Heutistics, e.g. SDType
– Sub‐symbolic methods
– Knowledge Graph Embeddings

Weaknesses of Current Research
on Knowledge Graph Embeddings
1. Only link prediction covered
– What about literal slot filling? Entity expansion? Schema expansion?
2. Evaluations self‐referencial
– Hit@10 not relevant for KB completion
– Hits@1 performance too bad for practical use
– Accuracy evaluated on simplified dataset: FB13, 6 relations dropped!

Integration Process
– Classic data integration
techniques apply
– Small set of sources 
– we can invest effort into the
integration of each data source
– write rules, label training data
– quality depends on effort spend
– All task are covered
– link prediction, slot filling,
– entity expansion, schema expansion

Challenges
1. Coverage of external sources
– Relevant entities and relevant properties might not be covered
– e.g. Wikipedia
2. Up‐to‐dateness of external sources
– Are sources regularly maintained?
– e.g. LOD cloud, research data
3. Cost of external sources
– Complete and up‐to‐date data often costs money
– Large companies can pay, other organizations often not

Conclusion: Web Tables
– Extremely wide range of very specific attributes
– many n‐ary relations with complex keys / time dimension
– table context is often required to understand the data
– Coverage of long tail entitles beyond Wikipedia
– Things work OK, but not good enough yet
– fact precision slot filling: 0.64 (without stitching)
– new entities accuracy: 0.72‐0.82
– For researchers: Rewarding but challenging domain
– For practitioners: Human in the loop still required for
verification

not provide schema.org annotations using annotations as

– Example: Small Events Paper @ SIGIR 2015
– extract data about small venue concerts, theatre performances,
garage sales, etc.
– they use 217,000 schema.org events from ClueWeb2012
as distant supervision, e.g.

– Approach
– train an information extraction method that

– extracted attributes: What? When? Where?
– apply method to pages without semantic
annotations
– Result
– extract 200,000 additional small‐scale
events from ClueWeb2012
– double recall at 0.85 precision

2. KG Completion using Small Sets of External Sources
– Production quality results for all tasks
– Manuel effort per source required
– Bottle neck is the availability and costs of external data sources
