Abstract
Instance retrieval is the main bottleneck of concept-learning systems based on refinement operators. We present NIR, a family of neural instance retrievers for ALCIQ that output graded membership scores from knowledge graph embeddings. We compare tokenization-based encoders (GRU, LSTM, Transformer) with a Compositional encoder that mirrors DL operators via primitive sub-networks. On eight benchmarks, all variants approximate Pellet closely on complete knowledge bases, while the Transformer model is most robust under incompleteness. The source code of our approach is at https://github.com/dice-group/owlapy.
