Typical methods include TransE, TransH, and TransR. All these methods map different relations into the vector space separately and the intrinsic correlations of these relations are ignored. It is obvious that there exist some correlations among relations because different relations may connect to a common entity. For example, the triples (Steve Jobs, PlaceOfBrith, California) and (Apple Inc., Location, California) share the same entity California as their tail entity. We analyze the embedded relation matrices learned by TransE/TransH/TransR, and find that the correlations of relations do exist and they are showed as low-rank structure over the embedded relation matrix. It is natural to ask whether we can leverage these correlations to learn better embeddings for the entities and relations in a knowledge graph. In this paper, we propose to learn the embedded relation matrix by decomposing it as a product of two low-dimensional matrices, for characterizing the low-rank structure.
