Abstract

Many existing knowledge graph embedding methods learn semantic representations for entities by using graph neural networks (GNN) to harvest their intrinsic relevances. However, these methods mostly represent every entity with one coarse-grained representation, without considering the variation of the semantics of an entity under the context of different relations. To tackle this problem, we propose a method to learn multiple representations of an entity, with each emphasizing one specific aspect of information contained in the entity. During training and testing, only the representation that is most relevant to the considered relation is selected and shown to the model, leading to the relation-selective representations. To enable the selection of representations according to the relation, we first propose to incorporate a relation-controlled gating mechanism into the original GNN, which is used to decide which and how much information can flow into the next updating stage of the GNN. Then, a mixture of relation-level and entity-level negative sample generation methods is further developed to enhance semantic information contained in relation-selective entity representations under the framework of contrastive learning. Experiments on three benchmarks show that our proposed model outperforms all strong baselines.
