Prompt-based knowledge probing for 1-hop relations has been used to measure how much world knowledge is stored in pretrained language models. Existing work uses considerable amounts of data to tune the prompts for better performance. In this work, we compare a variety of approaches under a few-shot knowledge probing setting, where only a small number (e.g., 10 or 20) of example triples are available. In addition, we create a new dataset named TREx-2p, which contains 2-hop relations. We report that few-shot examples can strongly boost the probing performance for both 1-hop and 2-hop relations. In particular, we find that a simple-yet-effective approach of finetuning the bias vectors in the model outperforms existing prompt-engineering methods.
