System and method for efficient multi-relational entity understanding and retrieval

Abstract

A method, an electronic device and computer readable medium for entity-relationship embeddings using automatically generated entity graphs instead of a traditional knowledge graph are provided. The method includes receiving, by a processor, an input text. The method also includes identifying a primary entity, a secondary entity and a context from the input text, wherein the context comprises a relationship between the primary entity and the secondary entity. The method additionally includes generating, by the processor, an entity context graph based on the primary entity, the secondary entity, and the context by: extracting, from the context, one or more text segments comprising a plurality of words describing one or more additional relationships between the primary entity and the secondary entity, and generating a plurality of context triples from the one or more text segments, each of the plurality of context triples defining a respective relationship between primary entity and the secondary entity.
