Challenge: Existing FSRE methods fail to classify relations based on information of sentences and entity pairs due to limited samples and lack of knowledge.
Approach: They propose a concept-sentence attention module to select the most appropriate concept from multiple concepts of each entity by calculating the semantic similarity between sentences and concepts.
Outcome: The proposed scheme outperforms existing methods on a few-shot relation extraction dataset.
