Abstract
Multi-Modal Entity Alignment (MMEA), aiming to discover matching entity pairs on two multi-modal knowledge graphs (MMKGs), is an essential task in knowledge graph fusion. Through mining feature information of MMKGs, entities are aligned to tackle the issue that an MMKG is incapable of effective integration. The recent attempt at neighbors and attribute fusion mainly focuses on aggregating multi-modal attributes, neglecting the structure effect with multi-modal attributes for entity alignment. This paper proposes an innovative approach, namely TriFac, to exploit embedding refinement for factorizing the original multi-modal knowledge graphs through a two-stage MMKG factorization. Notably, we propose triplet-aware graph neural networks to aggregate multi-relational features. We propose multi-modal fusion for aggregating multiple features and design three novel metrics to measure knowledge graph factorization performance on the unified factorized latent space. Empirical results indicate the effectiveness of TriFac, surpassing previous state-of-the-art models on two MMEA datasets and a power system dataset.
