Abstract: One or more systems, devices, computer program products and/or computer-implemented methods of use provided herein relate to a process for matching a word subset to a database entity. A system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components, and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components can comprise an identification component that outputs a word subset based on a word-based input file, and a mapping component that, based on a rules-based process employing soft matching, maps the word subset to a category comprising a value for being correlated to the word subset. The rules-based process employed by the mapping component can comprise word vector matching or fuzzy string matching.

Abstract: A modular two-stage neural architecture is used in translating a natural language question into a logic form such as a SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language (SPARQL) query. In a first stage, a neural machine translation (NMT)-based sequence-to-sequence (Seq2Seq) model translates a question into a sketch of the desired SPARQL query called a SPARQL silhouette. In a second stage a neural graph search module predicts the correct relations in the underlying knowledge graph.

Abstract: An embodiment includes decomposing a natural language assertion into a natural language question and answer pair that includes an initial question and an initial answer. The embodiment translates the initial question into a structured knowledge graph query and then performs an iterative process comprising iterative querying of a knowledge graph and evaluating of corresponding query responses resulting in respective confidence scores. A first iteration of the iterative process comprises querying of the knowledge graph to retrieve a first predicted answer, then determining whether a degree of similarity between the initial answer and the first predicted answer meets a threshold criterion. If not, the first predicted query is altered and used for querying the knowledge graph in a subsequent iteration of the iterative process. The embodiment also generates an assertion correctness score indicative of a degree of confidence that the assertion is factual using the respective confidence scores.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for zero-shot entity linking based on symbolic information are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes obtaining a knowledge graph comprising a set of entities and a training dataset comprising text samples for at least a subset of the entities in the knowledge graph; training a machine learning model to map an entity mention substring of a given sample of text to one corresponding entity in the set of entities, wherein the machine learning model is trained using a multi-task machine learning framework using symbolic information extracted from the knowledge graph; and mapping an entity mention substring of a new sample of text to one of the entities in the set using the trained machine learning model.
