Distributed representation learning of knowledge graph with diverse information

Knowledge graph is a type of network structure in which nodes represent entities and edges indicate relations. However, as the network size explosively increases, the issues of data sparsity and computation inefficiency on large-scale knowledge graph become more difficult to manipulate and manage. Knowledge graph embedding, which is a representation technique of embedding entities and relations in the knowledge graph into continuous, dense, and low-dimensional semantics vector spaces to tackle these challenges and endow the model with the abilities of knowledge fusion and inference, has recently attracted much attention. In this paper, we firstly introduce the overall framework and specific idea of embedding models. We then introduce two applications that apply KG embedding, compare the performance of the methods in these applications. Finally, we summarize several challenges to overcome, and provide some prospective future research directions such as deep learning network for approaches and applications.
