Wikidata Causal Event Triple Data

This dataset contains triples curated from Wikidata surrounding news events with causal relations, and is released as part of our WWW'23 paper, "Event Prediction using Case-Based Reasoning over Knowledge Graphs".

Starting from a set of classes that we consider to be types of "events", we queried Wikidata to collect entities that were an instanceOf an event class and that were connected to another such event entity by a causal triple (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:List_of_properties/causality). For all such cause-effect event pairs, we then collected a 3-hop neighborhood of outgoing triples.
