Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and apparatus for generating a neural network. The method includes: acquiring a target neural network, the target neural network corresponding to a preset association relationship, and being configured to use two entity vectors corresponding to two entities in a target knowledge graph as an input, to determine whether an association relationship between the two entities corresponding to the inputted two entity vectors is the preset association relationship, the target neural network comprising a relational tensor predetermined for the preset association relationship; converting the relational tensor in the target neural network into a product of a target number of relationship matrices, and generating a candidate neural network comprising the target number of converted relationship matrices; and generating a resulting neural network using the candidate neural network.
