A Joint Embedding Method of Relations and Attributes for Entity Alignment

Haihong E, Rui Cheng, Meina Song, Peican Zhu, and Zhen Wang

Abstract—Entity alignment is to link the entities that point to same objects in the real world among different knowledge graphs (KGs). Existing kn10owledge-embedding-based entity alignment methods mostly regard KG as relation triples, while ignoring attributes and attribute values in KG. However, attribute information provides a valid information supplement for relation triple, alleviates relation triple's relation universality problem and information incompleteness problem, and improves accuracy of entity alignment task. In this paper, we make the first attempt towards combing relation and attribute triples for entity alignment. We divide a KG into relation triples and attribute triples, use parameter sharing (PS) joint method and translation-based knowledge embedding methods to embed them jointly. In addition, we design two strategies: direct accumulation and weight assignment strategy, to explore the effect of relation and attribute triple's embedding on experiment performance. The experimental results show that our method has significantly improved Hits@1, Hits@10 and Mean Rank metrics compared to baseline, and is the state of the arts on entity alignment task.
