Learning probabilistic relational models with (partially structured) graph databases
Résumé
Probabilistic Relational Models (PRMs) such as Directed Acyclic Probabilistic Entity Relationship (DAPER) models are probabilistic models dealing with knowledge representation and relational data. Existing literature dealing with PRM and DAPER relies on well structured relational databases. In contrast, a large portion of real-world data is stored in Nosql databases specially graph databases that do not depend on a rigid schema. This paper builds on the recent work on DAPER models, and describes how to learn them from partially structured graph databases. Our contribution is twofold. First, we present how to extract the underlying ER model from a partially structured graph database. Then, we describe a method to compute sufficient statistics based on graph traversal techniques. Our objective is also twofold: we want to learn DAPERs with less structured data, and we want to accelerate the learning process by querying graph databases. Our experiments show that both objectives are completed, transforming the structure learning process into a more feasible task even when data are less structured than an usual relational database.
