Query On Knowledge Graphs With Hierarchical Relationships, Kaihua Liu

Masters Theses

The dramatic popularity of graph database has resulted in a growing interest in graph queries. Two major topics are included in graph queries. One is based on structural relationship to find meaningful results, such as subgraph pattern match and shortest-path query. The other one focuses on semantic-based query to find question answering from knowledge bases. However, most of these queries take knowledge graphs as flat forms and use only normal relationship to mine these graphs, which may lead to mistakes in the query results. In this thesis, we find hierarchical relationship in the knowledge on their semantic relations and make …
