Abstract

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.
