摘要
Intelligent information systems often harvest world knowledge in the form of information tuples, which are stored in knowledge-bases (KBs). These KBs power downstream information tasks. In this talk I will briefly describe various threads of research that interact with KBs in different ways. These include (1) extracting information to populate a KB, (2) inferring unstated information to improve the completeness of KBs and (3) using these KBs for downstream tasks such as goal-oriented dialog. In the two part talk, I will first summarize about a decade of progress on the Open Information Extraction project, and later discuss some of the more recent research on neural models for inference and dialog.
