• Abstract: Ontologies, taxonomies, and thesauri are used in many NLP tasks. However, most studies are focused on the creation of these lexical resources rather than the maintenance of the existing ones. Thus, we address the problem of taxonomy enrichment. We explore the possibilities of taxonomy extension in a resource-poor setting and present methods which are applicable to a large number of languages. We create novel English and Russian datasets for training and evaluating taxonomy enrichment models and describe a technique of creating such datasets for other languages.

  Taxonomies find utility in various real-world applications, such as e-commerce search engines and recommendation systems. Traditional supervised taxonomy expansion approaches encounter difficulties stemming from limited resources. We propose FLAME, a novel approach for taxonomy expansion in low-resource environments by harnessing the capabilities of large language models.

  We propose Visual Taxonomy Expansion (VTE), introducing visual features into the taxonomy expansion task. We propose a textual hypernymy learning task and a visual prototype learning task to cluster textual and visual semantics. Our method is evaluated on two datasets, where we obtain compelling results.

• TaxoExpan: Self-supervised Taxonomy Expansion with Position-Enhanced Graph Neural Network [62.12557274257303]
  Taxonomies consist of machine-interpretable semantics and provide valuable knowledge for many web applications. We propose a novel self-supervised framework, named TaxoExpan, which automatically generates a set of query concept, anchor concept> pairs from the existing taxonomy as training data. We develop two innovative techniques in TaxoExpan: (1) a position-enhanced graph neural network that encodes the local structure of an anchor concept in the existing taxonomy, and (2) a noise-robust training objective that enables the learned model to be insensitive to the label noise in the self-supervision data.
