Entity-centric knowledge bases are large collections of facts about entities of public interest, such as countries, politicians, or movies. They find applications in search engines, chatbots, and semantic data mining systems. In this paper, we first discuss the knowledge representation that has emerged as a pragmatic consensus in the research community of entity-centric knowledge bases. Then, we describe how these knowledge bases can be mined for logical rules. Finally, we discuss how entities can be represented alternatively as vectors in a vector space, by help of neural networks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
