Both entity typing and relation extraction from text corpora are widely used to identify the semantic types of an entity and a relation in a knowledge graph (KG). Most existing approaches rely on a pre-defined set of entity types and relation types in a KG. They thus cannot map entity mentions (relation mentions) to unseen entity types (relation types). To fundamentally overcome the limitations, we should add new semantic types of entities and relations to a KG schema. However, schema expansion traditionally requires manual conceptualization through a user’s observation on the text corpus while assuming the existence of suitable target KG schemas. In this work, we propose an <bold xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">A</b> ctive learning framework for <bold xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">K</b> nowledge graph <bold xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">S</b> chema <bold xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">E</b> xpansion ( <bold xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">AKSE</b> ), which can generate a new semantic type for KG schemas, without depending on a set of target schemas and human users’ observation. Specifically, a granularity based active learning algorithm determines whether a KG schema requires new semantic types or not. We also introduce a KG schema attention-based neural method which assigns semantic types to the entities and relationships extracted. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first study to expand a KG schema with active learning.
