Rethinking Regularization Methods for Knowledge Graph Completion

Knowledge graph completion (KGC) has attracted considerable attention in recent years because it is critical to improving the quality of knowledge graphs. Researchers have continuously explored various models. However, most previous efforts have neglected to take advantage of regularization from a deeper perspective and therefore have not been used to their full potential. This paper rethinks the application of regularization methods in KGC. Through extensive empirical studies on various KGC models, we find that carefully designed regularization not only alleviates overfitting and reduces variance but also enables these models to break through the upper bounds of their original performance. Furthermore, we introduce a novel sparse-regularization method that embeds the concept of rank-based selective sparsity into the KGC regularizer. The core idea is to selectively penalize those components with significant features in the embedding vector, thus effectively ignoring many components that contribute little and may only represent noise. Various comparative experiments on multiple datasets and multiple models show that the SPR regularization method is better than other regularization methods and can enable the KGC model to further break through the performance margin.

Towards Structure-aware Model for Multi-modal Knowledge Graph Completion

Knowledge graphs (KGs) play a key role in promoting various multimedia and AI applications. However, with the explosive growth of multi-modal information, traditional knowledge graph completion (KGC) models cannot be directly applied. This has attracted a large number of researchers to study multi-modal knowledge graph completion (MMKGC). Since MMKG extends KG to the visual and textual domains, MMKGC faces two main challenges: (1) how to deal with the fine-grained modality information interaction and awareness; (2) how to ensure the dominant role of graph structure in multi-modal knowledge fusion and deal with the noise generated by other modalities during modality fusion. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel MMKGC model named TSAM, which integrates fine-grained modality interaction and dominant graph structure to form a high-performance MMKGC framework. Specifically, to solve the challenges, TSAM proposes the Fine-grained Modality Awareness Fusion method (FgMAF), which uses pre-trained language models to better capture fine-grained semantic information interaction of different modalities and employs an attention mechanism to achieve fine-grained modality awareness and fusion. Additionally, TSAM presents the Structure-aware Contrastive Learning method (SaCL), which utilizes two contrastive learning approaches to align other modalities more closely with the structured modality. Extensive experiments show that the proposed TSAM model significantly outperforms existing MMKGC models on widely used multi-modal datasets.

RetrieveAll: A Multilingual Named Entity Recognition Framework with Large Language Models

The rise of large language models has led to significant performance breakthroughs in named entity recognition (NER) for high-resource languages, yet there remains substantial room for improvement in low- and medium-resource languages. Existing multilingual NER methods face severe language interference during the multi-language adaptation process, manifested in feature conflicts between different languages and the competitive suppression of low-resource language features by high-resource languages. Although training a dedicated model for each language can mitigate such interference, it lacks scalability and incurs excessive computational costs in real-world applications. To address this issue, we propose RetrieveAll, a universal multilingual NER framework based on dynamic LoRA. The framework decouples task-specific features across languages and demonstrates efficient dynamic adaptability. Furthermore, we introduce a cross-granularity knowledge augmented method that fully exploits the intrinsic potential of the data without relying on external resources. By leveraging a hierarchical prompting mechanism to guide knowledge injection, this approach advances the paradigm from "prompt-guided inference" to "prompt-driven learning." Experimental results show that RetrieveAll outperforms existing baselines; on the PAN-X dataset, it achieves an average F1 improvement of 12.1 percent.

LiSum: Open Source Software License Summarization with Multi-Task Learning

Open source software (OSS) licenses regulate the conditions under which users can reuse, modify, and distribute the software legally. However, there exist various OSS licenses in the community, written in a formal language, which are typically long and complicated to understand. In this paper, we conducted a 661-participants online survey to investigate the perspectives and practices of developers towards OSS licenses. The user study revealed an indeed need for an automated tool to facilitate license understanding. Motivated by the user study and the fast growth of licenses in the community, we propose the first study towards automated license summarization. Specifically, we released the first high quality text summarization dataset and designed two tasks, i.e., license text summarization (LTS), aiming at generating a relatively short summary for an arbitrary license, and license term classification (LTC), focusing on the attitude inference towards a predefined set of key license terms (e.g., Distribute). Aiming at the two tasks, we present LiSum, a multi-task learning method to help developers overcome the obstacles of understanding OSS licenses. Comprehensive experiments demonstrated that the proposed jointly training objective boosted the performance on both tasks, surpassing state-of-the-art baselines with gains of at least 5 points w.r.t. F1 scores of four summarization metrics and achieving 95.13% micro average F1 score for classification simultaneously. We released all the datasets, the replication package, and the questionnaires for the community.

LiResolver: License Incompatibility Resolution for Open Source Software

Open source software (OSS) licenses regulate the conditions under which OSS can be legally reused, distributed, and modified. However, a common issue arises when incorporating third-party OSS accompanied with licenses, i.e., license incompatibility, which occurs when multiple licenses exist in one project and there are conflicts between them. Despite being problematic, fixing license incompatibility issues requires substantial efforts due to the lack of license understanding and complex package dependency. In this paper, we propose LiResolver, a fine-grained, scalable, and flexible tool to resolve license incompatibility issues for open source software. Specifically, it first understands the semantics of licenses through fine-grained entity extraction and relation extraction. Then, it detects and resolves license incompatibility issues by recommending official licenses in priority. When no official licenses can satisfy the constraints, it generates a custom license as an alternative solution. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of LiResolver, with 4.09% false positive (FP) rate and 0.02% false negative (FN) rate for incompatibility issue localization, and 62.61% of 230 real-world incompatible projects resolved by LiResolver. We discuss the feedback from OSS developers and the lessons learned from this work. All the datasets and the replication package of LiResolver have been made publicly available to facilitate follow-up research.

A Coarse-to-fine Morphological Approach With Knowledge-based Rules and Self-adapting Correction for Lung Nodules Segmentation

The segmentation module which precisely outlines the nodules is a crucial step in a computer-aided diagnosis(CAD) system. The most challenging part of such a module is how to achieve high accuracy of the segmentation, especially for the juxtapleural, non-solid and small nodules. In this research, we present a coarse-to-fine methodology that greatly improves the thresholding method performance with a novel self-adapting correction algorithm and effectively removes noisy pixels with well-defined knowledge-based principles. Compared with recent strong morphological baselines, our algorithm, by combining dataset features, achieves state-of-the-art performance on both the public LIDC-IDRI dataset (DSC 0.699) and our private LC015 dataset (DSC 0.760) which closely approaches the SOTA deep learning-based models' performances. Furthermore, unlike most available morphological methods that can only segment the isolated and well-circumscribed nodules accurately, the precision of our method is totally independent of the nodule type or diameter, proving its applicability and generality.
