Dynamic knowledge graphs are ubiquitous in today's AI applications, as we represent molecular structures, social relationships, and language information using these graph models. As knowledge graphs evolve over time and are often noisy and incomplete, modeling their temporal and relational dependencies becomes crucial for downstream tasks. To address these challenges, this paper proposes PGRE (Poisson-Gamma Relational Evolution), a probabilistic model for modeling inter-relational dependencies in dynamic knowledge graphs. PGRE represents multi-relational temporal links via a Poisson-Bernoulli formulation. It introduces Gamma-distributed latent variables to capture entity-factor associations and cross-relation dependencies mediated by shared latent communities. A Gamma Markov process further models the temporal evolution of these latent variables, enabling principled characterization of relational dynamics. Experiments on benchmark datasets show that PGRE achieves competitive performance in link prediction, particularly in sparse settings, while revealing meaningful relational evolution patterns in dynamic knowledge graphs.
A central design principle in modern machine learning and artificial intelligence is to align a model's inductive bias with the structure of its input data. For matrix-valued inputs, relevant matrix-level relationships can be characterised through spectral values and spectral sub…
Automating theoretical research is constrained not only by the generation of candidate results, but also by their reliable evaluation. A common approach is to close the research loop with a large language model (LLM) reviewer. However, such reviewers remain empirically unreliable…
Singular value soft-thresholding can be computed via a reduction to the matrix polar decomposition, which allows one to exploit GPU-friendly algorithms for computing the polar decomposition. Empirically, there is a significant speed-up on GPUs compared to the standard approach us…
In this paper, we propose a new solution for addressing the content cold-start problem in industry-scale search and recommender systems. Compared to prior approaches, we have made the following new contributions: 1) our solution spans the entire multi-stage funnel and generalizes…
Dysphagia is a debilitating late effect of head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment, yet timely identification of at-risk patients remains challenging in survivorship care. Definitive assessment relies on videofluoroscopic imaging, as captured by the Dynamic Imaging Grade of Swallowi…
Electroencephalography (EEG) is widely used to diagnose neurological conditions, but its analysis usually relies on either predefined spectral features or deep neural networks. Predefined features carry a strong bias, since they fix in advance what counts as informative, while de…
