Many application domains require representing interrelated real-world activities and/or evolving physical phenomena. In the crisis response domain, for instance, one may be interested in representing the state of the unfolding crisis (e.g.,…
With the widespread of machine learning models for healthcare applications, there is increased interest in building applications for personalized medicine. Despite the plethora of proposed research for personalized medicine, very few focus…
Entity resolution (ER) is a fundamental task in data integration that enables insights from heterogeneous data sources. The primary challenge of ER lies in classifying record pairs as matches or nonmatches, which in multi-source ER (MS-ER)…
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a integration of various resources of any organization. It is computer software. All kinds of organization data that is relating to each and every function of the organization are available in ERP. So…
A plethora of approaches have been proposed for joint entity-relation (ER) extraction. Most of these methods largely depend on a large amount of manually annotated training data. However, manual data annotation is time consuming, labor…
Empirical risk minimization is the main tool for prediction problems, but its extension to relational data remains unsolved. We solve this problem using recent ideas from graph sampling theory to (i) define an empirical risk for relational…
Relational data stored in RDBMS is foundational to many real-world applications across domains such as e-commerce, finance, and sociality. While deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved strong performance on tabular data with a single…
This paper introduces RG (Relational Genetic) model, a revised relational model to represent graph-structured data in RDBMS while preserving its topology, for efficiently and effectively extracting data in different formats from disparate…
Interactions and time shape many aspects of life. Everyday activities -- like conversations, emails, money transfers, citations, and even acts of violence -- are relational events: interactions between a sender and a receiver at a specific…
A data model specifies how real-world entities and their relationships are represented and operated. In the NoSQL world data modeling usually begins from identifying application queries and designing the data model to efficiently answer…
Geographic distribution shift arises when the distribution of locations on Earth in a training dataset is different from what is seen at inference time. Using standard empirical risk minimization (ERM) in this setting can lead to uneven…
External knowledge,e.g., entities and entity descriptions, can help humans understand texts. Many works have been explored to include external knowledge in the pre-trained models. These methods, generally, design pre-training tasks and…
We propose DEER (Descriptive Knowledge Graph for Explaining Entity Relationships) - an open and informative form of modeling entity relationships. In DEER, relationships between entities are represented by free-text relation descriptions.…
Entity resolution has been an essential and well-studied task in data cleaning research for decades. Existing work has discussed the feasibility of utilizing pre-trained language models to perform entity resolution and achieved promising…
Generative document retrieval, an emerging paradigm in information retrieval, learns to build connections between documents and identifiers within a single model, garnering significant attention. However, there are still two challenges: (1)…
Extracting conceptual models, e.g., entity relationship model or Business Process model, from software requirement document is an essential task in the software development life cycle. Business process model presents a clear picture of…
Representation learning is a fundamental building block for analyzing entities in a database. While the existing embedding learning methods are effective in various data mining problems, their applicability is often limited because these…
Entity matching (EM) is a critical task in data integration, aiming to identify records across different datasets that refer to the same real-world entities. Traditional methods often rely on manually engineered features and rule-based…
Networked data, in which every training example involves two objects and may share some common objects with others, is used in many machine learning tasks such as learning to rank and link prediction. A challenge of learning from networked…
