On the Computational Cost of Knowledge Graph Embeddings

Authors: Victor Charpenay, Mansour Zoubeirou A Mayaki, and Antoine Zimmermann

Abstract

Over a decade, numerous Knowledge Graph Embedding (KGE) models have been designed and evaluated on reference datasets, always with increasing performance. In this paper, we re-evaluate these models with respect to their computational efficiency during training, by estimating the computational cost of the procedure expressed in floating-point operations. We design a cost model based on analytical expressions and apply it on a collection of 20 KGE models, representative of the state-of-the-art. We show that dimensionality or parameter efficiency, used in the literature to compare models with each other, are not suitable to evaluate the true cost of models. Through fixed-budget experiments, a novel approach to evaluate KGE models based on cost estimates, we re-assess the relative performance of model families compared to the state-of-the-art. Bilinear models such as ComplEx underperform with a low computational budget while hyperbolic linear models appear to offer no particular benefit compared to simpler Euclidian models, especially the MuRE model. Neural models, such as ConvE or CompGCN, achieve reasonable performance in the literature but their high computational cost appears unnecessary when compared with other models. The trade-off between efficiency and expressivity of both linear and neural models is to be further explored.

Temporal Modelling in Cultural Heritage Knowledge Graphs: Use Cases, Requirements, Evaluation, and Decision Support

Authors: Oleksandra Bruns, Jörg Waitelonis, Jeff Z. Pan, and Harald Sack

Published in: TGDK, Volume 4, Issue 1 (2026). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 4, Issue 1

Abstract

Our culture, history and world are in constant motion, continuously shaped by the flow of time, evolving narratives, and shifting relationships. Capturing this temporal complexity within cultural heritage (CH) knowledge graphs is essential for preserving the dynamic nature of human heritage. However, standard RDF predicates fail to effectively model the temporal aspects of cultural data, such as changing facts, evolving relationships, and temporal concepts. Over the past two decades, a variety of RDF-based approaches have been proposed to address this limitation, yet guidance is missing on which method best suits specific CH contexts. This paper presents a systematic evaluation of temporal RDF modelling approaches from a CH perspective. Based on an analysis of real-world CH use cases, core temporal requirements are identified that reflect both modelling expressivity and practical concerns. Six prominent approaches - RDF*, tRDF, Named Graphs, Singleton Property, N-ary Relations, and 4D Fluents - are assessed across these requirements. Our findings reveal that no single solution fits all scenarios, but suitable approaches can be selected based on project-specific priorities. To support practitioners, a decision-support tool is introduced to guide them in selecting the most suitable extension for their specific needs. This work provides practical guidance for CH modelling and contributes to the broader development of temporally aware Linked Data.

A Logic Programming Approach to Repairing SHACL Constraint Violations

Authors: Shqiponja Ahmetaj, Robert David, Axel Polleres, and Mantas Šimkus

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

Abstract

The Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) is a recent standard, a W3C recommendation, for validating RDF graphs against shape constraints to be checked on target nodes of a data graph. The standard also describes the notion of validation reports, which detail the results of the validation process. In case of violation of constraints, the validation report should explain the reasons for non-validation, offering guidance on how to identify or fix violations in the data graph. Since the specification left it open to SHACL processors to define such explanations, a recent work proposed the use of explanations in the style of database repairs, where a repair is a set of additions to or deletions from the data graph so that the resulting graph validates against the constraints. In this paper, we study such repairs for non-recursive SHACL, the largest fragment of SHACL that is fully defined in the specification. We propose an algorithm to compute repairs by encoding the explanation problem - using Answer Set Programming (ASP) - into a logic program, where the answer sets contain (minimal) repairs. We then study a scenario where it is not possible to simultaneously repair all the targets, which may be the case due to overall unsatisfiability or conflicting constraints. We introduce a relaxed notion of validation, which allows to validate a (maximal) subset of the targets and adapt the ASP translation to take into account this relaxation. Finally, we add support for repairing constraints which use property paths and equality of paths. Our implementation in clingo is - to the best of our knowledge - the first implementation of a repair program for SHACL.

Resilience in Knowledge Graph Embeddings

Authors: Arnab Sharma, N'Dah Jean Kouagou, and Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 2 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 2

Abstract

In recent years, knowledge graphs have gained interest and witnessed widespread applications in various domains, such as information retrieval, question-answering, recommendation systems, amongst others. Large-scale knowledge graphs to this end have demonstrated their utility in effectively representing structured knowledge. To further facilitate the application of machine learning techniques, knowledge graph embedding models have been developed. Such models can transform entities and relationships within knowledge graphs into vectors. However, these embedding models often face challenges related to noise, missing information, distribution shift, adversarial attacks, etc. This can lead to sub-optimal embeddings and incorrect inferences, thereby negatively impacting downstream applications. While the existing literature has focused so far on adversarial attacks on KGE models, the challenges related to the other critical aspects remain unexplored. In this paper, we, first of all, give a unified definition of resilience, encompassing several factors such as generalisation, in-distribution generalization, distribution adaption, and robustness. After formalizing these concepts for machine learning in general, we define them in the context of knowledge graphs. To find the gap in the existing works on resilience in the context of knowledge graphs, we perform a systematic survey, taking into account all these aspects mentioned previously. Our survey results show that most of the existing works focus on a specific aspect of resilience, namely robustness. After categorizing such works based on their respective aspects of resilience, we discuss the challenges and future research directions.

Finiteness of Symbolic Derivatives in Lean

Authors: Ekaterina Zhuchko, Hendrik Maarand, Margus Veanes, and Gabriel Ebner

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract

Brzozowski proved that the set of derivatives of any regular expression is finite modulo associativity, idempotence and, notably, commutativity of the union operator. We extend this result to the case of symbolic location based derivatives, for which we prove finiteness of the state space by quotienting only by associativity, deduplication and idempotence (ADI); the fact that we don't use commutativity allows for this result to carry over to the derivative based backtracking (PCRE) match semantics, where the union operator is noncommutative. Furthermore, we consider regular expressions extended with lookarounds, intersection, and negation. We also show that our method for proving finiteness allows us to include certain simplification rules in the derivative operation while preserving finiteness. The finiteness proof is constructive: given an expression R, we construct a finite set that is an overapproximation (modulo ADI) of the set of derivatives of R. We reuse some of the infrastructure provided in previous formalization efforts for regular expressions in Lean 4, showing the flexibility and reusability of the framework.

CoaKG: A Contextualized Knowledge Graph Approach for Exploratory Search and Decision Making

Authors: Veronica dos Santos, Daniel Schwabe, Altigran Soares da Silva, and Sérgio Lifschitz

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

Abstract

In decision-making scenarios, an information need arises due to a knowledge gap when a decision-maker needs more knowledge to make a decision. Users may take the initiative to acquire knowledge to fill this gap through exploratory search approaches using Knowledge Graphs (KGs) as information sources, but their queries can be incomplete, inaccurate, and ambiguous. Although KGs have great potential for exploratory search, they are incomplete by nature. Besides, for both Crowd-sourced KGs and KGs constructed by integrating several different information sources of varying quality to be effectively consumed, there is a need for a Trust Layer. Our research aims to enrich and allow querying KGs to support context-aware exploration in decision-making scenarios. We propose a layered architecture for Context Augmented Knowledge Graphs-based Decision Support Systems with a Knowledge Layer that operates under a Dual Open World Assumption (DOWA). Under DOWA, the evaluation of the truthfulness of the information obtained from KGs depends on the context of its claims and the tasks carried out or intended (purpose). The Knowledge Layer comprises a Context Augmented KG (CoaKG) and a CoaKG Query Engine. The CoaKG contains contextual mappings to identify explicit context and rules to infer implicit context. The CoaKG Query Engine is designed as a query-answering approach that retrieves all contextualized answers from the CoaKG. A Proof of Concept (PoC) based on Wikidata was developed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Knowledge Layer.

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.

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.

Unified Multimedia Segmentation - A Comprehensive Model for URI-based Media Segment Representation

Authors: Jan Willi, Abraham Bernstein, and Luca Rossetto

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 3 (2024). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 3

Abstract

In multimedia annotation, referencing specific segments of a document is often desired due to its richness and multimodality, but no universal representation for such references exists. This significantly hampers the usage of multimedia content in knowledge graphs, as it is modeled as one large atomic information container. Unstructured data - such as text, audio, images, and video - can commonly be decomposed into its constituent parts, as such documents rarely contain only one semantic concept. Hence, it is reasonable to assume that these advances will make it possible to decompose these previous atomic components into logical segments. To be processable by the knowledge graph stack, however, one needs to break the atomic nature of multimedia content, providing a mechanism to address media segments. This paper proposes a Unified Segmentation Model capable of depicting arbitrary segmentations on any media document type. The work begins with a formal analysis of multimedia and segmentation, exploring segmentation operations and how to describe them. Building on this analysis, it then develops a practical scheme for expressing segmentation in Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs). Given that this approach makes segments of multimedia content referencable, it breaks their atomic nature and makes them first-class citizens within knowledge graphs. The proposed model is implemented as a proof of concept in the MediaGraph Store, a multimedia knowledge graph storage and querying engine.

The Reasonable Ontology Templates Framework

Authors: Martin Georg Skjæveland and Leif Harald Karlsen

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 2 (2024): Special Issue on Resources for Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 2

Abstract

Reasonable Ontology Templates (OTTR) is a templating language for representing and instantiating patterns. It is based on simple and generic, but powerful, mechanisms such as recursive macro expansion, term substitution and type systems, and is designed particularly for building and maintaining RDF knowledge graphs and OWL ontologies. In this resource paper, we present the formal specifications that define the OTTR framework. This includes the fundamentals of the OTTR language and the adaptions to make it fit with standard semantic web languages, and two serialization formats developed for semantic web practitioners. We also present the OTTR framework’s support for documenting, publishing and managing template libraries, and for tools for practical bulk instantiation of templates from tabular data and queryable data sources. The functionality of the OTTR framework is available for use through Lutra, an open-source reference implementation, and other independent implementations. We report on the use and impact of OTTR by presenting selected industrial use cases. Finally, we reflect on some design considerations of the language and framework and present ideas for future work.

The dblp Knowledge Graph and SPARQL Endpoint

Authors: Marcel R. Ackermann, Hannah Bast, Benedikt Maria Beckermann, Johannes Kalmbach, Patrick Neises, and Stefan Ollinger

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 2 (2024): Special Issue on Resources for Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 2

Abstract

For more than 30 years, the dblp computer science bibliography has provided quality-checked and curated bibliographic metadata on major computer science journals, proceedings, and monographs. Its semantic content has been published as RDF or similar graph data by third parties in the past, but most of these resources have now disappeared from the web or are no longer actively synchronized with the latest dblp data. In this article, we introduce the dblp Knowledge Graph (dblp KG), the first semantic representation of the dblp data that is designed and maintained by the dblp team. The dataset is augmented by citation data from the OpenCitations corpus. Open and FAIR access to the data is provided via daily updated RDF dumps, persistently archived monthly releases, a new public SPARQL endpoint with a powerful user interface, and a linked open data API. We also make it easy to self-host a replica of our SPARQL endpoint. We provide an introduction on how to work with the dblp KG and the added citation data using our SPARQL endpoint, with several example queries. Finally, we present the results of a small performance evaluation.

Semantic Web: Past, Present, and Future

Authors: Ansgar Scherp, Gerd Groener, Petr Škoda, Katja Hose, and Maria-Esther Vidal

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 1 (2024): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge - Part 2. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 1

Abstract

Ever since the vision was formulated, the Semantic Web has inspired many generations of innovations. Semantic technologies have been used to share vast amounts of information on the Web, enhance them with semantics to give them meaning, and enable inference and reasoning on them. Throughout the years, semantic technologies, and in particular knowledge graphs, have been used in search engines, data integration, enterprise settings, and machine learning. In this paper, we recap the classical concepts and foundations of the Semantic Web as well as modern and recent concepts and applications, building upon these foundations. The classical topics we cover include knowledge representation, creating and validating knowledge on the Web, reasoning and linking, and distributed querying. We enhance this classical view of the so-called "Semantic Web Layer Cake" with an update of recent concepts that include provenance, security and trust, as well as a discussion of practical impacts from industry-led contributions. We conclude with an outlook on the future directions of the Semantic Web. This is a living document.

Logics for Conceptual Data Modelling: A Review

Authors: Pablo R. Fillottrani and C. Maria Keet

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 1 (2024): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge - Part 2. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 1

Abstract

Information modelling for databases and object-oriented information systems avails of conceptual data modelling languages such as EER and UML Class Diagrams. Many attempts exist to add logical rigour to them, for various reasons and with disparate strengths. In this paper we aim to provide a structured overview of the many efforts. We focus on aims, approaches to the formalisation, including key dimensions of choice points, popular logics used, and the main relevant reasoning services. We close with current challenges and research directions.

Multilingual Knowledge Graphs and Low-Resource Languages: A Review

Authors: Lucie-Aimée Kaffee, Russa Biswas, C. Maria Keet, Edlira Kalemi Vakaj, and Gerard de Melo

Published in: TGDK, Volume 1, Issue 1 (2023): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 1, Issue 1

Abstract

There is a lack of multilingual data to support applications in a large number of languages, especially for low-resource languages. Knowledge graphs (KG) could contribute to closing the gap of language support by providing easily accessible, machine-readable, multilingual linked data, which can be reused across applications. In this paper, we provide an overview of work in the domain of multilingual KGs with a focus on low-resource languages. We review the current state of multilingual KGs along with the different aspects that are crucial for creating KGs with language coverage in mind. Special consideration is given to challenges particular to low-resource languages in KGs. We further provide an overview of applications that yield multilingual KG information as well as downstream applications reusing such multilingual data. Finally, we explore open problems regarding multilingual KGs with a focus on low-resource languages.
