Real-world knowledge graphs are often incomplete, lacking many valid facts. Knowledge Graph Completion (KGC) aims to predict missing links using known triples, thereby enhancing graph coverage. A key challenge is modeling diverse relational patterns such as symmetry, antisymmetry, inversion, composition and semantic hierarchy. Existing models such as RotatE can capture symmetric, antisymmetric, inverse, and commutative composition patterns, yet struggle with non-commutative composition. Rotate3D addresses this by introducing non-commutativity via three-dimensional rotations, but still fails to capture the semantic hierarchies prevalent in knowledge graphs. Moreover, both models cannot effectively model one-to-many relations. To overcome these limitations, we propose RelBall, which extends Rotate3D with two innovations. First, our model introduces modulus transformation to model hierarchies, driving abstract concepts toward smaller moduli and concrete instances toward larger ones. Second, it introduces a tail-centric relation ball to model one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many relations. RelBall offers the following advantages: (1) coverage of all relational patterns, including the ones mentioned above; (2) an interpretable hierarchical representation where the modulus directly reflect semantic levels; (3) support for one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many relations. Experiments on multiple datasets demonstrate RelBall's competitive link prediction performance against various baselines.

In recent years, with the emergence of Temporal Knowledge Graphs (TKGs), research on learning entity and relation representations in TKGs has attracted increasing attention, giving rise to a large number of TKG embedding methods. TeRo is a simple and efficient temporal knowledge graph embedding approach. However, TeRo does not do well in modeling the mapping properties of various relations, such as one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many. Meanwhile, it also has limitations in the expression of temporal information. To address these issues, we propose a novel TKG embedding method named TeRoR. This method divides the temporal evolution of entity embeddings, and conducts independent rotation transformations on head and tail entities in the complex vector space to strengthen temporal information modeling capacity. In terms of relational characteristics, we train a radius to constrain the rotated and translated head entities within a circular region centered on the tail entity, which effectively captures the diverse mapping properties of relations. Experimental results demonstrate that TeRoR achieves competitive performance against state-of-the-art models on four distinct TKG datasets.
