Few-Shot Knowledge Graph Completion via Transfer Knowledge from Similar Tasks
Knowledge graphs (KGs) are essential in many AI applications but often suffer from incompleteness, limiting their utility. Many relations in KGs have only a few examples, making it challenging to train accurate models. Few-shot learning offers a promising direction by enabling KG completion with only a small number of training triplets. However, most existing approaches treat each relation independently and fail to leverage shared information across tasks. In this paper, we introduce TransNet, a transfer learning method for few-shot KG completion that captures task relationships and reuses knowledge from related tasks. TransNet further incorporates meta-learning to effectively handle unseen relations. Experiments on standard benchmarks demonstrate that TransNet achieves strong performance compared to prior methods. Code and data will be released upon acceptance.
