Knowledge graph (KG) embedding methods map entities and relations into continuous vector spaces, improving performance in tasks like link prediction and question answering. With rising privacy concerns, machine unlearning (MU) has emerged as a critical AI technology, enabling models to eliminate the influence of specific data. Existing MU approaches often rely on data obfuscation and adjustments to training loss but lack generalization across unlearning tasks. This paper introduces MetaEU, a Meta-Learning-Based Knowledge Graph Embedding Unlearning framework. MetaEU leverages meta-learning to unlearn specific embeddings, mitigating their impact while preserving model performance on remaining data. Experiments on benchmark datasets demonstrate its effectiveness in KG embedding unlearning.

Large language models (LLMs) have garnered significant attention for their superior performance in many knowledge-driven applications on the world wide web.These models are designed to train hundreds of millions or more parameters on large amounts of text data, enabling them to understand and generate naturallanguage effectively. As the superior performance of LLMs becomes apparent,they are increasingly being applied to knowledge graph embedding (KGE) related tasks to improve the processing results. Traditional KGE representation learning methods map entities and relations into a low-dimensional vector space, enablingthe triples in the knowledge graph to satisfy a specific scoring function in thevector space. However, based on the powerful language understanding and seman-tic modeling capabilities of LLMs, that have recently been invoked to varying degrees in different types of KGE related scenarios such as multi-modal KGE andopen KGE according to their task characteristics. In this paper, we investigate awide range of approaches for performing LLMs-related tasks in different types of KGE scenarios. To better compare the various approaches, we summarize each KGE scenario in a classification. Finally, we discuss the applications in which the methods are mainly used and suggest several forward-looking directions for the development of this new research area.
