ConceptNet
Commonsense relation prediction tasks derived from ConceptNet 5.7 (English subset), encoded as ILP problems. Each task targets one ConceptNet relation type; the background knowledge provides the other nine relations restricted to the same entity set, enabling reasoning across relation types.
Entities are filtered to those appearing in at least 3 triples; each relation is capped at 2000 positive examples. Negatives are sampled from the cross-product of entities appearing in background knowledge.
Tasks: 10 (r001_at_location through r010_used_for)
| Task | Relation | Description |
|---|---|---|
r001_at_location |
AtLocation |
Typical location where a concept can be found |
r002_capable_of |
CapableOf |
Actions a concept is capable of performing |
r003_causes |
Causes |
Events or states that a concept causes |
r004_has_a |
HasA |
Things a concept possesses or contains |
r005_has_prerequisite |
HasPrerequisite |
Prerequisites required before an action |
r006_has_property |
HasProperty |
Properties or attributes of a concept |
r007_is_a |
IsA |
Hypernym or category membership |
r008_part_of |
PartOf |
Meronymy: concept is part of a larger entity |
r009_receives_action |
ReceivesAction |
Actions that can be done to a concept |
r010_used_for |
UsedFor |
Purpose or function of a concept |
Head relation: f(Concept1, Concept2) — the target ConceptNet relation holds between Concept1 and Concept2.
Background relations: For each task, the other nine ConceptNet relations serve as background. Each is a binary relation over concepts:
| Relation | Arity | Description |
|---|---|---|
at_location(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 is typically found at location C2 |
capable_of(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 is capable of C2 |
causes(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 causes C2 |
has_a(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 has C2 |
has_prerequisite(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 has prerequisite C2 |
has_property(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 has property C2 |
is_a(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 is a kind of C2 |
part_of(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 is part of C2 |
receives_action(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 receives action C2 |
used_for(C1, C2) |
2 | C1 is used for C2 |
(The relation being predicted is excluded from the background for that task.)
