KG2Tables: A Domain-Specific Tabular Data Generator to Evaluate Semantic Table Interpretation Systems (Resource Paper)

Authors: Nora Abdelmageed, Ernesto Jiménez-Ruiz, Oktie Hassanzadeh, and Birgitta König-Ries

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 1 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 1

Abstract
Tabular data, often in the form of CSV files, plays a pivotal role in data analytics pipelines. Understanding this data semantically, known as Semantic Table Interpretation (STI), is crucial but poses challenges due to several factors such as the ambiguity of labels. As a result, STI has gained increasing attention from the community in the past few years. Evaluating STI systems requires well-established benchmarks. Most of the existing large-scale benchmarks are derived from general domain sources and focus on ambiguity, while domain-specific benchmarks are relatively small in size. This paper introduces KG2Tables, a framework that can construct domain-specific large-scale benchmarks from a Knowledge Graph (KG). KG2Tables leverages the internal hierarchy of the relevant KG concepts and their properties. As a proof of concept, we have built large datasets in the food, biodiversity, and biomedical domains. The resulting datasets, tFood, tBiomed, and tBiodiv, have been made available for the public in the ISWC SemTab challenge (2023 and 2024 editions). We include the evaluation results of top-performing STI systems using tFood Such results underscore its potential as a robust evaluation benchmark for challenging STI systems. We demonstrate the data quality level using a sample-based approach for the generated benchmarks including, for example, realistic tables assessment. Nevertheless, we provide an extensive discussion of KG2Tables explaining how it could be used to create other benchmarks from any domain of interest and including its key features and limitations with suggestions to overcome them.

Talking Wikidata: Communication Patterns and Their Impact on Community Engagement in Collaborative Knowledge Graphs

Authors: Elisavet Koutsiana, Ioannis Reklos, Kholoud Saad Alghamdi, Nitisha Jain, Albert Meroño-Peñuela, and Elena Simperl

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 1 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 1

Abstract
We study collaboration patterns of Wikidata, one of the world's largest open source collaborative knowledge graph (KG) communities. Collaborative KG communities, play a key role in structuring machine-readable knowledge to support AI systems like conversational agents. However, these communities face challenges related to long-term member engagement, as a small subset of contributors often is responsible for the majority of contributions and decision-making. While prior research has explored contributors' roles and lifespans, discussions within collaborative KG communities remain understudied. To fill this gap, we investigated the behavioural patterns of contributors and factors affecting their communication and participation. We analysed all the discussions on Wikidata using a mixed methods approach, including statistical tests, network analysis, and text and graph embedding representations. Our findings reveal that the interactions between Wikidata editors form a small world network, resilient to dropouts and inclusive, where both the network topology and discussion content influence the continuity of conversations. Furthermore, the account age of Wikidata members and their conversations are significant factors in their long-term engagement with the project. Our observations and recommendations can benefit the Wikidata and semantic web communities, providing guidance on how to improve collaborative environments for sustainability, growth, and quality.

Current and Future Challenges in Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop 22282)

Authors: James P. Delgrande, Birte Glimm, Thomas Meyer, Miroslaw Truszczynski, and Frank Wolter

Published in: Dagstuhl Manifestos, Volume 10, Issue 1 (2024)

Abstract
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning is a central, longstanding, and active area of Artificial Intelligence. Over the years it has evolved significantly; more recently it has been challenged and complemented by research in areas such as machine learning and reasoning under uncertainty. In July 2022,sser a Dagstuhl Perspectives workshop was held on Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. The goal of the workshop was to describe the state of the art in the field, including its relation with other areas, its shortcomings and strengths, together with recommendations for future progress. We developed this manifesto based on the presentations, panels, working groups, and discussions that took place at the Dagstuhl Workshop. It is a declaration of our views on Knowledge Representation: its origins, goals, milestones, and current foci; its relation to other disciplines, especially to Artificial Intelligence; and on its challenges, along with key priorities for the next decade.

Knowledge Graphs and their Role in the Knowledge Engineering of the 21st Century (Dagstuhl Seminar 22372)

Authors: Paul Groth, Elena Simperl, Marieke van Erp, and Denny Vrandečić

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 12, Issue 9 (2023)

Abstract
This report documents the programme and outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 22372 "Knowledge Graphs and their Role in the Knowledge Engineering of the 21st Century" held in September 2022. The seminar aimed to gain a better understanding of the way knowledge graphs are created, maintained, and used today, and identify research challenges throughout the knowledge engineering life cycle, including tasks such as modelling, representation, reasoning, and evolution. The participants identified directions of research to answer these challenges, which will form the basis for new methodologies, methods, and tools, applicable to varied AI systems in which knowledge graphs are used, for instance, in natural language processing, or in information retrieval. The seminar brought together a snapshot of the knowledge engineering and adjacent communities, including leading experts, academics, practitioners, and rising stars in those fields. It fulfilled its aims - the participants took inventory of existing and emerging solutions, discussed open problems and practical challenges, and identified ample opportunities for novel research, technology transfer, and inter-disciplinary collaborations. Among the topics of discussion were: designing engineering methodologies for knowledge graphs, integrating large language models and structured data into knowledge engineering pipelines, neural methods for knowledge engineering, responsible use of AI in knowledge graph construction, other forms of knowledge representations, and generating user and developer buy-in. Besides a range of joint publications, hackathons, and project proposals, the participants suggested joint activities with other scientific communities, in particular those working on large language models, generative AI, FAccT (fairness, accountability, transparency), and human-AI interaction. The discussions were captured in visual summaries thanks to Catherine Allan - you can find more about her work at https://www.catherineallan.co.uk/. The summaries are arrayed throughout this report. Lastly, knowledge about the seminar is captured in Wikidata at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q113961931

Faster OWL Using Split Programs

Authors: Pascal Hitzler and Denny Vrandecic

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 5371, Principles and Practices of Semantic Web Reasoning (2006)

Abstract
We propose a new technique for approximate ABox reasoning with OWL DL ontologies. Essentially, we obtain substantially improved reasoning performance by disregarding non-Horn features of OWL DL. Our approach comes as a side-product of recent research results concerning a new transformation of OWL DL ontologies into negation-free disjunctive datalog, and rests on the idea of performing standard resolution over disjunctive rules by treating them as if they were non-disjunctive ones. We analyse our reasoning approach by means of non-monotonic reasoning techniques, and present an implementation, called Screech.
