Generative Knowledge Graph Construction: A Review
This is an incremental review that synthesizes existing work for researchers in knowledge graph construction.
The paper reviews generative knowledge graph construction methods, summarizing recent progress and analyzing their advantages and weaknesses through theoretical and empirical insights.
Generative Knowledge Graph Construction (KGC) refers to those methods that leverage the sequence-to-sequence framework for building knowledge graphs, which is flexible and can be adapted to widespread tasks. In this study, we summarize the recent compelling progress in generative knowledge graph construction. We present the advantages and weaknesses of each paradigm in terms of different generation targets and provide theoretical insight and empirical analysis. Based on the review, we suggest promising research directions for the future. Our contributions are threefold: (1) We present a detailed, complete taxonomy for the generative KGC methods; (2) We provide a theoretical and empirical analysis of the generative KGC methods; (3) We propose several research directions that can be developed in the future.
