TREAT: Automated Construction and Maintenance of Probabilistic Knowledge Bases from Logs (Extended Abstract)

Knowledge bases (KBs) are ideal vehicles for tackling many challenges, such as Query Answering, Root Cause Analysis. Given that the world is changing over time, previously acquired knowledge can become outdated. Thus, we need methods to update the knowledge when new information comes and repair any identified faults in the constructed KBs. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are few research works in this area. In this paper, we propose a system called TREAT (Tacit Relation Extraction and Transformation) to automatically construct a probabilistic KB which is continuously self-updating such that the knowledge remains consistent and up to date.
