Workshop Topics

In recent years, an increasing number of large-scale knowledge graphs have been constructed and published on the Web, by both academic and industrial communities, such as DBpedia, YAGO, Freebase, Wikidata, Google Knowledge Graph, Microsoft Satori, Facebook Entity Graph, and others. In fact, a knowledge graph is essentially a large network of entities, their properties, and semantic relationships between entities. Such kind of graph-based knowledge data has been posing a great challenge to the traditional data management theories and technologies. On the other hand, the database community has been putting a lot of effort into graph databases for nearly two decades to make the storage, query processing, mining, and analysis of large graph data more efficient and scalable. However, there are still gaps between the requirements of knowledge graph applications from various domains and the current state of techniques in graph databases. Therefore, this workshop aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, developers, and users from knowledge graph research and application, graph database, social network, and other relevant communities to address the challenges, present state-of-the-art solutions, exchange ideas and results, and discuss future research directions in management, analysis, and application of knowledge graphs in different domains.

Dr. Dandan Song

Title: Research of Entity Alignment for Knowledge Graphs

Intro:

The talk is about the recent developments in entity alignment research within knowledge graphs. It will provide a preliminary overview of research challenges and directions in recent papers presented at major international conferences over the past two years. Challenges and achievements in entity alignment across seven aspects: data labeling, effective information extraction, computational efficiency, similarity computation, dynamic changes, multi-modal entity alignment, and continuous entity alignment will be introduced with insights into the future.
