• Authors: Kunpeng Guo, Dennis Diefenbach, Antoine Gourru, Christophe Gravier
• Abstract summary: We present a framework that is able to identify and extract new facts that are published under multiple Web domains. We take inspiration from ideas that are used to extract facts from textual collections and adapt them to extract facts from Web pages. Our experiments show that we can achieve a mean performance of 84.07 at F1-score.

• Abstract: Wikidata has grown to a knowledge graph with an impressive size. To date, it contains more than 17 billion triples collecting information about people, places, films, stars, publications, proteins, and many more. On the other side, most of the information on the Web is not published in highly structured data repositories like Wikidata, but rather as unstructured and semi-structured content, more concretely in HTML pages containing text and tables. Finding, monitoring, and organizing this data in a knowledge graph is requiring considerable work from human editors. The volume and complexity of the data make this task difficult and time-consuming. In this work, we present a framework that is able to identify and extract new facts that are published under multiple Web domains so that they can be proposed for validation by Wikidata editors. The framework is relying on question-answering technologies. We take inspiration from ideas that are used to extract facts from textual collections and adapt them to extract facts from Web pages. For achieving this, we demonstrate that language models can be adapted to extract facts not only from textual collections but also from Web pages. By exploiting the information already contained in Wikidata the proposed framework can be trained without the need for any additional learning signals and can extract new facts for a wide range of properties and domains. Following this path, Wikidata can be used as a seed to extract facts on the Web. Our experiments show that we can achieve a mean performance of 84.07 at F1-score. Moreover, our estimations show that we can potentially extract millions of facts that can be proposed for human validation. The goal is to help editors in their daily tasks and contribute to the completion of the Wikidata knowledge graph.

• Leveraging Wikidata's edit history in knowledge graph refinement tasks [77.34726150561087]
  edit history represents the process in which the community reaches some kind of fuzzy and distributed consensus. We build a dataset containing the edit history of every instance from the 100 most important classes in Wikidata. We propose and evaluate two new methods to leverage this edit history information in knowledge graph embedding models for type prediction tasks.

• Mapping Process for the Task: Wikidata Statements to Text as Wikipedia Sentences [68.8204255655161]
  We propose our mapping process for the task of converting Wikidata statements to natural language text (WS2T) for Wikipedia projects at the sentence level. The main step is to organize statements, represented as a group of quadruples and triples, and then to map them to corresponding sentences in English Wikipedia. We evaluate the output corpus in various aspects: sentence structure analysis, noise filtering, and relationships between sentence components based on word embedding models.

  Current linked open data (LOD) tools are not suitable to enrich large graphs like Wikidata. We present a novel workflow that includes gap detection, source selection, schema alignment, and semantic validation. Our experiments show that our workflow can enrich Wikidata with millions of novel statements from external LOD sources with a high quality.

  Wikidata is a frequently updated, community-driven, and multilingual knowledge graph. Current Wikidata-specific Entity Linking datasets do not differ in their annotation scheme from schemes for other knowledge graphs like DBpedia. Almost all approaches employ specific properties like labels and sometimes descriptions but ignore characteristics such as the hyper-relational structure.

  We run a series of microtasks experiments to evaluate a large corpus of references, sampled from Wikidata triples with labels in several languages. We use a consolidated, curated version of the crowdsourced assessments to train several machine learning models to scale up the analysis to the whole of Wikidata. The findings help us ascertain the quality of references in Wikidata, and identify common challenges in defining and capturing the quality of user-generated multilingual structured data on the web.
