LLM2KB: Constructing Knowledge Bases using instruction tuned context aware Large Language Models (2308.13207v1)

Abstract: The advent of LLMs (LLM) has revolutionized the field of natural language processing, enabling significant progress in various applications. One key area of interest is the construction of Knowledge Bases (KB) using these powerful models. Knowledge bases serve as repositories of structured information, facilitating information retrieval and inference tasks. Our paper proposes LLM2KB, a system for constructing knowledge bases using LLMs, with a focus on the Llama 2 architecture and the Wikipedia dataset. We perform parameter efficient instruction tuning for Llama-2-13b-chat and StableBeluga-13B by training small injection models that have only 0.05 % of the parameters of the base models using the Low Rank Adaptation (LoRA) technique. These injection models have been trained with prompts that are engineered to utilize Wikipedia page contexts of subject entities fetched using a Dense Passage Retrieval (DPR) algorithm, to answer relevant object entities for a given subject entity and relation. Our best performing model achieved an average F1 score of 0.6185 across 21 relations in the LM-KBC challenge held at the ISWC 2023 conference.
