In this work, we present a new method for constructing a vulnerability knowledge graph from information in the National Vulnerability Database (NVD). Our approach combines named entity recognition (NER), relation extraction (RE), and entity prediction using a combination of neural models, heuristic rules, and knowledge graph embeddings. We demonstrate how our method helps to fix missing entities in knowledge graphs used for cybersecurity and evaluate the performance.}, year = {2023}, month = {04/2023}, publisher = {arXiv}, url = {https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.00382}, doi = {10.48550/arXiv.2305.00382}, }
