• Abstract: Building taxonomies is often a significant part of building an ontology, and many attempts have been made to automate the creation of such taxonomies from relevant data. The idea in such approaches is either that relevant definitions of the intension of concepts can be extracted as patterns in the data (e.g. in formal concept analysis) or that their extension can be built from grouping data objects based on similarity (clustering). In both cases, the process leads to an automatically constructed structure, which can either be too coarse and lacking in definition, or too fined-grained and detailed, therefore requiring to be refined into the desired taxonomy. In this paper, we explore a method that takes inspiration from both approaches in an iterative and interactive process, so that refinement and definition of the concepts in the taxonomy occur at the time of identifying those concepts in the data. We show that this method is applicable on a variety of data sources and leads to taxonomies that can be more directly integrated into ontologies.

• Creating a Fine Grained Entity Type Taxonomy Using LLMs [0.0]
  This study investigates the potential of GPT-4 and its advanced iteration, GPT-4 Turbo, in autonomously developing a detailed entity type taxonomy. Our objective is to construct a comprehensive taxonomy, starting from a broad classification of entity types. This classification is then progressively refined through iterative prompting techniques, leveraging GPT-4's internal knowledge base.

Our comprehensive experiments on two real-world datasets demonstrate that TaxoCom not only generates the high-quality topic taxonomy in terms of term coherency and topic coverage.

  As data and business scope grow in real applications, existing need to be expanded to incorporate new concepts. Previous works on taxonomy expansion process the new concepts independently and simultaneously, ignoring the potential relationships among them and the appropriate order of inserting operations. We propose TaxoOrder, a novel self-supervised framework that simultaneously discovers the local hypernym-hyponym structure among new concepts and decides the order of insertion.

  We propose a method for seed-guided topical taxonomy construction, which takes a corpus and a seed taxonomy described by concept names as input. A relation transferring module learns and transfers the user's interested relation along multiple paths to expand the seed taxonomy structure in width and depth. A concept learning module enriches the semantics of each concept node by jointly embedding the taxonomy.

  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.
