Abstract

Entity typing in knowledge graphs (KGs) aims to infer missing types of entities and might be considered one of the most significant tasks of knowledge graph construction since type information is highly relevant for querying, quality assurance, and KG applications. While supervised learning approaches for entity typing have been proposed, they require large amounts of (manually) labeled data, which can be expensive to obtain. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for KG entity typing that leverages semi-supervised learning from massive unlabeled data. Our approach follows a teacher-student paradigm that allows combining a small amount of labeled data with a large amount of unlabeled data to boost performance. We conduct several experiments on two benchmarking datasets (FB15k-ET and YAGO43k-ET). Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in improving entity typing in KGs. Given type information for only 1% of entities, our approach ASSET predicts missing types with a F1-score of 0.47 and 0.64 on the datasets FB15k-ET and YAGO43k-ET, respectively, outperforming supervised baselines.
