Bo Xiong successfully defends his Ph.D. thesis on geometric-inspired methods for knowledge representations

July 26, 2024

Dr. Bo Xiong, a member of the Analytic Computing department of the Institute for Artificial Intelligence, successfully defended his PhD thesis titled “Geometric Relational Embeddings” on 24th July 2024.

Geometric representation learning is a fundamental aspect of representation learning on non-Euclidean structured data and achieved promising progress in several areas like graph representations, knowledge graph embeddings and query answering. The main idea of geometric representation learning is to design geometric models that provide geometric inductive bias for data with specific geometry. To preserve the complex underlying logical patterns in data, Dr. Xiong considers geometric representations of symbolic data like knowledge graphs for knowledge reasoning.
