Can structured text replace vision for diagram reasoning? A wrong answer after textualization can arise because the representation omits information the question needs, or because the solver fails to...
The paper investigates how different components of a graph retrieval‑augmented generation pipeline affect large language model performance on knowledge‑graph question answering. It examines four variables—whether the answer path is included, the syntax of triples, the order of triples, and the subgraph size—across six LLMs and two benchmarks. The study finds that including the answer path is crucial, while the grounding instruction dramatically reduces accuracy when no facts are provided, and that syntax, order, and subgraph size have negligible measurable impact at multi‑hop depth.

VisKG‑LM proposes compiling retrieved knowledge graph subgraphs into static visual memories rather than re‑encoding them during each inference step. The method serializes each subgraph as Relation‑Labeled Paths, renders them as images that preserve the graph’s branching structure, and caches these images for reuse. At inference, a language model processes the question and candidate text first, then consults the cached visual memory only at its final layer, yielding improved performance on CommonsenseQA, OpenBookQA, and MedQA‑USMLE compared to both text‑only baselines and a large vision‑language model.
arXiv:2604. 27720v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly applied to medical visual question answering (Med-VQA), yet whether they can \emph{localize} the evidence behind their answers---a prerequisite for clinical auditability---is poorly characterized.

arXiv:2606. 00148v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) often know the rule but pick the wrong answer: on abstract visual reasoning (AVR) tasks, a model can describe what it sees and name the underlying pattern, yet still fail to choose the matching candidate.

arXiv:2606. 14476v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A growing line of work equips large language model (LLM) agents with graph neural networks (GNNs) as callable tools, assuming the agent exercises judgment over when and how much to rely on such a tool.
The paper investigates how providing execution traces to multimodal judges in agentic video‑generation systems can bias their verdicts. On a benchmark of 109 two‑event clips, traces that falsely report successful tool calls cause large‑language‑model judges to incorrectly accept 78–90 % of failures, while contradictory traces lead to 100 % rejection of correct clips. The effect persists even when judges are instructed to consider only the video frames, indicating that the vulnerability stems from the judges’ learned trust in tool logs rather than the visual content itself.
