Uncertainty Management in the Construction of Knowledge Graphs: A Survey

Authors: Lucas Jarnac, Yoan Chabot, and Miguel Couceiro

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


Abstract
Knowledge Graphs (KGs) are a major asset for companies thanks to their great flexibility in data representation and their numerous applications, e.g., vocabulary sharing, Q&A or recommendation systems. To build a KG, it is a common practice to rely on automatic methods for extracting knowledge from various heterogeneous sources. However, in a noisy and uncertain world, knowledge may not be reliable and conflicts between data sources may occur. Integrating unreliable data would directly impact the use of the KG, therefore such conflicts must be resolved. This could be done manually by selecting the best data to integrate. This first approach is highly accurate, but costly and time-consuming. That is why recent efforts focus on automatic approaches, which represent a challenging task since it requires handling the uncertainty of extracted knowledge throughout its integration into the KG. We survey state-of-the-art approaches in this direction and present constructions of both open and enterprise KGs. We then describe different knowledge extraction methods and discuss downstream tasks after knowledge acquisition, including KG completion using embedding models, knowledge alignment, and knowledge fusion in order to address the problem of knowledge uncertainty in KG construction. We conclude with a discussion on the remaining challenges and perspectives when constructing a KG taking into account uncertainty.

Generalization by People and Machines (Dagstuhl Seminar 24192)

Authors: Barbara Hammer, Filip Ilievski, Sascha Saralajew, and Frank van Harmelen

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5 (2024)


Abstract
Today’s AI systems are powerful to the extent that they have largely entered the mainstream and divided the world between those who believe AI will solve all our problems and those who fear that AI will be destructive for humanity. Meanwhile, trusting AI is very difficult given its lack of robustness to novel situations, consistency of its outputs, and interpretability of its reasoning process. Building trustworthy AI requires a paradigm shift from the current oversimplified practice of crafting accuracy-driven models to a human-centric design that can enhance human ability on manageable tasks, or enable humans and AIs to solve complex tasks together that are difficult for either separately. At the core of this problem is the unrivaled human generalization and abstraction ability. While today’s AI is able to provide a response to any input, its ability to transfer knowledge to novel situations is still limited by oversimplification practices, as manifested by tasks that involve pragmatics, agent goals, and understanding of narrative structures. As there are currently no venues that allow cross-disciplinary research on the topic of reliable AI generalization, this discrepancy is problematic and requires dedicated efforts to bring in one place generalization experts from different fields within AI, but also with Cognitive Science. This Dagstuhl Seminar thus provided a unique opportunity for discussing the discrepancy between human and AI generalization mechanisms and crafting a vision on how to align the two streams in a compelling and promising way that combines the strengths of both. To ensure an effective seminar, we brought together cross-disciplinary perspectives across computer and cognitive science fields. Our participants included experts in Interpretable Machine Learning, Neuro-Symbolic Reasoning, Explainable AI, Commonsense Reasoning, Case-based Reasoning, Analogy, Cognitive Science, and Human-AI Teaming. Specifically, the seminar participants focused on the following questions: How can cognitive mechanisms in people be used to inspire generalization in AI? What Machine Learning methods hold the promise to enable such reasoning mechanisms? What is the role of data and knowledge engineering for AI and human generalization? How can we design and model human-AI teams that can benefit from their complementary generalization capabilities? How can we evaluate generalization in humans and AI in a satisfactory manner?

Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (Dagstuhl Seminar 22262)

Authors: Wendy E. Mackay, John Shawe-Taylor, and Frank van Harmelen

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 12, Issue 6 (2023)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop 22262 "Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence". The goal of this Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshops is to provide the scientific and technological foundations for designing and deploying hybrid human-centered AI systems that work in partnership with human beings and that enhance human capabilities rather than replace human intelligence. Fundamentally new solutions are needed for core research problems in AI and human-computer interaction (HCI), especially to help people understand actions recommended or performed by AI systems and to facilitate meaningful interaction between humans and AI systems. Specific challenges include: learning complex world models; building effective and explainable machine learning systems; developing human-controllable intelligent systems; adapting AI systems to dynamic, open-ended real-world environments (in particular robots and autonomous systems); achieving in-depth understanding of humans and complex social contexts; and enabling self-reflection within AI systems.

Structure and Learning (Dagstuhl Seminar 21362)

Authors: Tiansi Dong, Achim Rettinger, Jie Tang, Barbara Tversky, and Frank van Harmelen

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 11, Issue 8 (2022)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 21362 "Structure and Learning", held from September 5 to 10, 2021. Structure and learning are among the most prominent topics in Artificial Intelligence (AI) today. Integrating symbolic and numeric inference was set as one of the next open AI problems at the Townhall meeting "A 20 Year Roadmap for AI" at AAAI 2019. In this Dagstuhl seminar, we discussed related problems from an interdiscplinary perspective, in particular, Cognitive Science, Cognitive Psychology, Physics, Computational Humor, Linguistic, Machine Learning, and AI. This report overviews presentations and working groups during the seminar, and lists two open problems.

RANDOM
Reaching a Consensus on Random Networks: The Power of Few

Authors: Linh Tran and Van Vu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 176, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2020)


Abstract
A community of n individuals splits into two camps, Red and Blue. The individuals are connected by a social network, which influences their colors. Everyday, each person changes his/her color according to the majority of his/her neighbors. Red (Blue) wins if everyone in the community becomes Red (Blue) at some point. We study this process when the underlying network is the random Erdos-Renyi graph G(n, p). With a balanced initial state (n/2 persons in each camp), it is clear that each color wins with the same probability. Our study reveals that for any constants p and ε, there is a constant c such that if one camp has n/2 + c individuals at the initial state, then it wins with probability at least 1 - ε. The surprising fact here is that c does not depend on n, the population of the community. When p = 1/2 and ε = .1, one can set c = 6, meaning one camp has n/2 + 6 members initially. In other words, it takes only 6 extra people to win an election with overwhelming odds. We also generalize the result to p = p_n = o(1) in a separate paper.
