HittER: Hierarchical Transformers for Knowledge Graph Embeddings
This paper examines the challenging problem of learning representations of entities and relations in a complex multi-relational knowledge graph. We propose HittER, a Hierarchical Transformer model to jointly learn Entity-relation composition and Relational contextualization based on a source entity's neighborhood. Our proposed model consists of two different Transformer blocks: the bottom block extracts features of each entity-relation pair in the local neighborhood of the source entity and the top block aggregates the relational information from the outputs of the bottom block. We further design a masked entity prediction task to balance information from the relational context and the source entity itself. Evaluated on the task of link prediction, our approach achieves new state-of-the-art results on two standard benchmark datasets FB15K-237 and WN18RR.
