DeepKE VS OpenNRE

Scaling language models have revolutionized widespread NLP tasks, yet little comprehensively explored few-shot relation extraction with large language models. In this paper, we investigate principal methodologies, in-context learning and data generation, for few-shot relation extraction via GPT-3.5 through exhaustive experiments. To enhance few-shot performance, we further propose task-related instructions and schema-constrained data generation. We observe that in-context learning can achieve performance on par with previous prompt learning approaches, and data generation with the large language model can boost previous solutions to obtain new state-of-the-art few-shot results on four widely-studied relation extraction datasets. We hope our work can inspire future research for the capabilities of large language models in few-shot relation extraction.

OpenNRE (https://github.com/thunlp/OpenNRE) is another good approach to neural relation extraction, though it's slightly dated. What would be particularly interesting is to combine models like OpenNRE or SpanMarker with entity-linking models to construct KG triples. And a solid, scalable graph database underneath would make for a great knowledge base that can be constructed from unstructured text.
