LBMKGC: Large Model-Driven Balanced Multimodal Knowledge Graph Completion

Multi-modal Knowledge Graph Completion (MMKGC) aims to predict missing entities, relations, or attributes in knowledge graphs by collaboratively modeling the triple structure and multimodal information (e.g., text, images, videos) associated with entities. This approach facilitates the automatic discovery of previously unobserved factual knowledge. However, existing MMKGC methods encounter several critical challenges: (i) the imbalance of inter-entity information across different modalities; (ii) the heterogeneity of intra-entity multimodal information; and (iii) for a given entity, the informational contributions of different modalities are inconsistent across contexts. In this paper, we propose a novel Large model-driven Balanced Multimodal Knowledge Graph Completion framework, termed LBMKGC. Initially, LBMKGC employs the Stable Diffusion XL (a Large generative vision model) to augment the imbalanced information across modalities. Subsequently, to bridge the semantic gap between heterogeneous modalities, LBMKGC aligns the multimodal embeddings of entities semantically by using the CLIP (Contrastive Language-Image Pre-Training) model. Furthermore, LBMKGC adaptively fuses multimodal embeddings with relational guidance by distinguishing between the perceptual and conceptual attributes of triples. Finally, extensive experiments conducted against 21 state-of-the-art baselines demonstrate that LBMKGC achieves superior performance across diverse datasets and scenarios while maintaining efficiency and generalizability.
