Abstract

While relation extraction has traditionally been viewed as a task relying solely on textual data, recent work has shown that by taking as input existing facts in the form of entity-relation triples from both knowl-edge bases and textual data, the perfor-mance of relation extraction can be im-proved significantly. Following this new paradigm, we propose a tensor decompo-sition approach for knowledge base em-bedding that is highly scalable, and is es-pecially suitable for relation extraction. By leveraging relational domain knowl-edge about entity type information, our learning algorithm is significantly faster than previous approaches and is better able to discover new relations missing from the database. In addition, when ap-plied to a relation extraction task, our ap-proach alone is comparable to several ex-isting systems, and improves the weighted mean average precision of a state-of-the-art method by 10 points when used as a subcomponent. 1
