Knowledge Base Construction:

• information extraction: named entity recognition, relation extraction, entity resolution, synonym mining

• ontology construction information integration schema alignment, ontology alignment

• tools and systems for automated knowledge base construction

• structured prediction methods on text, sequence labeling methods on text

• distant supervision, weak supervision techniques for text

• Human-in-the-loop techniques for KB construction

Mining and Reasoning over Knowledge Bases:

• structured search, KB querying, semantic search

• representation learning on network/graph, knowledge graph embedding, knowledge base completion/population, link prediction

• knowledge-based systems, probabilistic knowledge bases, graph databases

Knowledge Base-related Applications:

• KB-based QA, hybrid QA, QA with open-domain facts

• Injecting rule/logic into recommendation systems, recommendation with knowledge bases

• web search using knowledge bases, search by example User study in KB-related applications, user interface, best practices
