Knowledge graphs are widely used in information queries. They are built using triples from knowledge bases, which are extracted with varying accuracy levels. Accuracy plays a key role in a knowledge graph, and knowledge graph construction uses several techniques to refine and remove any inaccurate triples. There are many algorithms that have been employed to refine triples while constructing knowledge graphs. These techniques use the information about triples and their connections to identify erroneous triples. However, these techniques lack in effective correspondence to human evaluations. Hence, this paper proposes a machine learning approach to identify inaccurate triples that correspond to actual human evaluations by injecting supervision through a subset of crowd-sourced human evaluation of triples. Our model uses the probabilistic soft logic’s soft truth values and an empirical feature, the fact strength, that we derived based on the triples. We evaluated the model using the NELL and YAGO datasets and observed an improvement of 12.56% and 5.39% in their respective precision. In addition, we achieved an average improvement of 4.44% with the F1 scores, representing a better prediction accuracy. The inclusion of the fact strength augmented the modeling precision by an average of 2.13% and provided a higher calibration. Hence, the primary contribution of this paper is the proposal of a model that effectively identifies erroneous triples, aligning with high correspondence to actual human judgment.
