Abstract

Recent progress in information extraction has shown how to automatically build large ontologies from high-quality sources like Wikipedia. But knowledge evolves over time; facts have associated validity intervals. Therefore, ontologies should include time as a first-class dimension. We develop Timely YAGO, which extends our previously built knowledge base YAGO with temporal aspects. Timely YAGO exploits different methods to extract as many temporal facts as possible. Mining temporal facts could find interesting relationships among these facts. A SPARQL-like time-aware query language is used for querying.
