However, these knowledge bases are highly incomplete, for example, over 70% of people in Freebase have no known place of birth. To solve this problem, we propose a query-driven knowledge base completion system with multimodal fusion of unstructured and structured information. To effectively fuse unstructured information from the Web and structured information in knowledge bases to achieve good performance, our system builds multimodal knowledge graphs based on question answering and rule inference. We propose a multimodal path fusion algorithm to rank candidate answers based on different paths in the multimodal knowledge graphs, achieving much better performance than question answering, rule inference and a baseline fusion algorithm. To improve system efficiency, query-driven techniques are utilized to reduce the runtime of our system, providing fast responses to user queries. Extensive experiments have been conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our system. ## Recorded benchmark results A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage. ## Original sources and implementation [Original paper]() [PDF]()
