Abstract: Knowledge Graph Embedding (KGE) is a critical field aiming to transform the elements of knowledge graphs into continuous spaces, offering great potential for structured data representation. In contemporary KGE research, the utilization of either hyperbolic or Euclidean space for knowledge graph modeling is a common practice. However, Knowledge graphs encompass diverse geometric data structures, including chains and hierarchies, whose hybrid nature exceeds the capacity of a single embedding space to capture effectively. This paper introduces a groundbreaking and highly effective approach called Unified Geometry Knowledge Graph Embedding (UniGE). UniGE stands out as the pioneering KGE methodology that seamlessly integrates knowledge graph embeddings in both Euclidean and hyperbolic geometric spaces. We introduce an embedding alignment method and fusion strategy, which harnesses optimal transport techniques and Wasserstein barycenter method. Furthermore, we offer a comprehensive theoretical analysis to substantiate the superiority of our approach, as evident from a more robust error bound. To substantiate the strength of UniGE, we conducted comprehensive experiments on three benchmark datasets. The results consistently demonstrate that UniGE outperforms state-of-the-art methods, aligning with the conclusions drawn from our theoretical evaluation.
