Multimodal knowledge graphs (MMKG) store structured world knowledge enriched with multimodal descriptive information. However, MMKG often faces the challenge of incompleteness. The primary objective of multimodal knowledge graph completion (MMKGC) is to predict missing entities within MMKG. Current MMKGC methods struggle with addressing the issue of over-trust attention and how to enhance the robustness of the model. To overcome these problems, we introduce APKGC, a noise-enhanced multimodal method for knowledge graph completion with attention penalty. APKGC effectively adjusts the attention scores in the language model and alleviates over-trust attention through a specifically designed attention penalty module. Additionally, an adaptive noise sampling module is proposed to supplement the entity's multimodal information, thereby enhancing the model's robustness. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that APKGC excels in overcoming these challenges. Compared to the existing state-of-the-art MMKGC model, APKGC improves Hit@1 by 3.3% on the DB15K dataset and by 3.4% on the MKG-W dataset.

Learning concept prerequisite relations helps better master and build a logically coherent knowledge structure. Many studies use graph neural networks to create heterogeneous knowledge networks that enhance concept representations. However, different types of relations in these networks can influence each other. Existing research often focuses solely on concept relations, neglecting other types of knowledge connections. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel concept prerequisite relation learning model, named the Global Knowledge Relation Optimization Model(GKROM). Specifically, we capture the impact of different knowledge relation types on document and concept semantic representations separately, integrating the document and concept semantic representations. Then, we introduce multi-objective learning to optimize the knowledge relation network from a global perspective. Through the above optimization, GKROM learns richer semantic representations for concepts and documents, improving the accuracy of concept prerequisite relation learning. Extensive experiments on public datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our GKROM, achieving state-of-the-art performance in concept prerequisite relation learning.

Concept prerequisite relations determine the learning order of knowledge concepts in one domain, which has an important impact on teachers' course design and students' personalized learning. Current research usually predicts concept prerequisite relations from the perspective of knowledge, and rarely pays attention to the role of learners' learning behavior. We propose a Dual Graph Distillation Method for Concept Prerequisite Relation Learning (DGCPL). Specifically, DGCPL constructs a dual graph structure from both the knowledge and learning behavior perspectives, and captures the high-order knowledge features and learning behavior features through the concept-resource hypergraph and the learning behavior graph respectively. In addition, we introduce a gated knowledge distillation to fuse the structural information of concept nodes in the two graphs, so as to obtain a more comprehensive concept embedding representation and achieve accurate prediction of prerequisite relations. On three public benchmark datasets, we compare DGCPL with eight graph-based baseline methods and five traditional classification baseline methods. The experimental results show that DGCPL achieves state-of-the-art performance in learning concept prerequisite relations. Our code is available at https://github.com/wisejw/DGCPL.

Visual Question Answering (VQA) requires models to reason over multimodal information, combining visual and textual data. With the development of continual learning, significant progress has been made in retaining knowledge and adapting to new information in the VQA domain. However, current methods often struggle with balancing knowledge retention, adaptation, and robust feature representation. To address these challenges, we propose a novel framework with adaptive memory allocation and global noise filtering called MacVQA for visual question answering. MacVQA fuses visual and question information while filtering noise to ensure robust representations, and employs prototype-based memory allocation to optimize feature quality and memory usage. These designs enable MacVQA to balance knowledge acquisition, retention, and compositional generalization in continual VQA learning. Experiments on ten continual VQA tasks show that MacVQA outperforms existing baselines, achieving 43.38% average accuracy and 2.32% average forgetting on standard tasks, and 42.53% average accuracy and 3.60% average forgetting on novel composition tasks.
