Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of natural language processing, deep learning, and big data knowledge engineering, specifically to a method for constructing a knowledge graph for bridge health and wellness based on deep learning. Background Technology

[0002] Knowledge graphs are a crucial method for organizing and representing knowledge in the era of big data. They are a key technology for achieving cognitive intelligence and play a vital role in areas such as semantic search, intelligent question answering, personalized recommendation, and intelligence analysis. Knowledge graphs use network structures to describe concepts, entities, and their relationships in the real world. Based on knowledge graphs, the continuous accumulation, integration, and expansion of professional domain knowledge can be achieved, as well as the selective extraction of key knowledge elements required for engineering projects, the integration of semantic and pragmatic information from engineering knowledge, and the provision of a foundation for the intelligent application and visualization of knowledge.

[0003] The semantic search, intelligent question answering, and personalized recommendation functions of knowledge graphs have been widely applied in fields such as medicine, social networking, film and television, humanities, and economics, and have become a research hotspot in the knowledge service field. As the application of knowledge graphs in various fields becomes increasingly widespread, many scholars have begun to introduce them into the field of civil engineering and have conducted multifaceted research. However, problems remain, such as insufficient research depth and a narrow research scope. For example, the bridge types studied are relatively limited, the completeness of the knowledge base still needs to be verified, and there are still relatively few case studies of knowledge graph research in the field of civil engineering. Knowledge graphs developed for a specific bridge type cannot be applied to other types of bridges in practical applications.

[0004] As knowledge graphs are increasingly applied across various fields, they are demonstrating their immense value. Knowledge graphs can provide a "smart core" for bridge and health care platforms, enabling truly intelligent, scientific, and accurate decision-making. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the actual problem that this invention needs to solve is: how to effectively extract valuable entities and relationships between entities from texts in the field of bridge health and wellness, so as to realize the semi-automatic construction of knowledge graphs in this field.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A method for constructing a knowledge graph for bridge-related health and wellness based on deep learning, comprising:

[0008] S1. Annotate entities and relationships in texts related to bridge maintenance to form a knowledge extraction corpus for this field;

[0009] S2. Construct a knowledge extraction model for the bridge health and wellness field, and input the domain-annotated corpus for model training;

[0010] S3. Use the trained knowledge extraction model to perform named entity recognition and relation extraction in this domain;

[0011] S4. Construct a knowledge graph of bridge health and wellness based on the extracted entities and relationships.

[0012] Preferably, the entity labeling strategy in step S1 is the BIO three-dimensional sequence labeling method, where the labels "NAM, LOS, DIM, DDE, DMS" correspond to "disease name, disease location, disease detection method, disease severity, and disease maintenance suggestions," respectively. To improve the accuracy of relationship identification, the relationship labeling strategy not only labels the relationships between entities but also labels the position information of the start and end characters of the head and tail entities in the text.

[0013] Preferably, the bridge maintenance and care domain knowledge extraction model in step S2 includes two main modules: named entity recognition and relation extraction, and shares an ALBERT embedding layer. The bridge maintenance text is then processed. Input the ALBERT pre-trained language model to obtain its embedded representation output. in For bridge maintenance text C b A sequence of string vectors.

[0014] Preferably, in step S2, the named entity recognition module uses Transformer for semantic feature extraction and CRF for label prediction of named entities. This embeds text from the bridge health and wellness field into the representation. Directly inputting the Transformer feature extractor yields the outputs y learned by the Multi-Head Attention mechanism and the FeedForward Network, respectively. m and y f :

[0015]

[0016] y f =LayerNorm(y m +FFN(y m ))

[0017] After passing through an encoder-decoder module consisting of multiple multi-head attention mechanisms and a feedforward neural network, and using linear mapping and the softmax activation function, the final semantic feature extraction result of the bridge maintenance text is obtained.

[0018]

[0019] in, It is the output of the Transformer's Encoder-Decoder encoding and decoding.

[0020] Preferably, in step S2, the relationship extraction module uses a bidirectional graph convolutional neural network (BiGCN) to extract features and uses Softmax to predict the labels of relationships between entities. The entities in the bridge and elderly care field obtained in the named entity recognition stage are used as graph nodes. Based on the entity's category label, the predefined relationships at the concept layer are used as the edge set of the graph structure. Through forward GCN and backward GCN learning, the semantic feature extraction results of the relationships between bridge health and wellness entities are obtained. The calculation method is as follows:

[0021]

[0022]

[0023] in, This represents the hidden layer output of a single GCN. This represents the hidden layer output of the forward GCN. This indicates the hidden layer output of the backward GCN. (Pr) e (v,u) represents the probability that there is a relationship e between nodes v and u. w and b represent the weight parameters and biases to be learned during model training, respectively, and ReLU is an activation function.

[0024] In summary, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following technical advantages:

[0025] (1) This invention uses the ALBERT pre-trained language as the embedding representation for the knowledge extraction model. Based on BERT, matrix factorization and parameter sharing are performed, thereby reducing the number of model parameters and effectively solving the problem of insufficient resources in specific domains. The ALBERT model replaces the NSP task with the SOP task, mainly focusing on inter-sentence coherence, which solves the problem of inefficient next-sentence prediction loss in BERT. Therefore, the ALBERT model is more suitable for knowledge embedding representation in the specific domain of bridge health care.

[0026] (2) By sharing the ALBERT model embedding layer, the computational resources for the two subtasks of named entity recognition and relation extraction to perform knowledge representation independently are further saved.

[0027] (3) Named entity recognition is a typical sequence labeling task based on token classification. Compared with RNN neural network for feature extraction, Transformer has a stronger feature extraction effect and is more suitable for model training with few samples in specific fields.

[0028] (4) A bidirectional graph convolutional network (BiGCN) is used for relation reasoning. The relation prediction results are used to aggregate entity nodes and update deep contextual features for joint extraction. Relation information is further added to entity recognition to improve the performance of joint extraction. Attached Figure Description
