Automated Tree Knowledge Graph Construction using Ontology Expansion and Retrieval from Vietnamese History Textbooks

The paper presents an end‑to‑end pipeline for automatically constructing a tree‑structured knowledge graph (KG) from Vietnamese high school history textbooks and evaluating retrieval strategies that exploit the KG’s hierarchical structure. The KG construction uses a three‑phase hybrid relation extraction process, including intra‑batch deduplication, approximate cross‑batch search, and LLM extraction with a centroid filter and dual‑LLM validator, resulting in 750 nodes and 4,341 semantic edges across 41 ontology types. Retrieval evaluation compares three graph traversal strategies—Top‑Down, Horizontal, and Bottom‑Up—on a benchmark of 1,210 Vietnamese queries, finding that the Top‑Down strategy with structural information outperforms a vector baseline by 4.7 percentage points in NDCG@10.

An Ontology-Guided, Deduplication-Aware Extraction Layer for Knowledge Graph Construction from Heterogeneous Documents

arXiv:2607. 28662v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models extract entities and relationships from unstructured documents fluently but inconsistently: type vocabularies fracture across documents, the same person surfaces under several name variants, relationships duplicate, and distinct individuals who share a name risk silent conflation.

A Unified Framework for Context-Aware and Relation-Aware Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation

arXiv:2606. 18075v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a paradigm for enhancing large language models (LLMs) with external knowledge, yet existing graph-based methods face a fundamental limitation: entity-centric and chunk-centric approaches operate on representations anchored to original text without true knowledge fusion.

UnWeaving the knots of GraphRAG -- turns out VectorRAG is almost enough

arXiv:2603. 29875v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: One of the key problems in Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems is that chunk-based retrieval pipelines represent the source chunks as atomic objects, mixing the information contained within such a chunk into a single vector.

GraphER: An Efficient Graph-Based Enrichment and Reranking Method for Retrieval-Augmented Generation

arXiv:2603. 24925v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems that rely on semantic search often fail to retrieve the complete set of evidence for complex queries, particularly when information is distributed across multiple sources.

A Storage-Retrieval Gap in Parametric Knowledge Graph Memory

The paper investigates a parametric approach to knowledge graph memory by compiling each entity into a LoRA adapter, enabling zero‑cost query-time retrieval via weight injection. On the MetaQA dataset, these adapters encode context‑free factual knowledge, improving exact‑match scores by up to +0.243 over a base model and achieving an oracle gap of +0.283. However, the stored knowledge is not recoverable through similarity or embedding‑based methods, indicating that knowledge is stored locally and does not transfer across semantically neighboring entities.

ConvergeWriter: Data-Driven Bottom-Up Article Construction

ConvergeWriter introduces a bottom‑up, data‑driven framework for long‑form document generation that first retrieves exhaustive knowledge from a source corpus and clusters it into distinct knowledge groups. These clusters then guide the creation of a hierarchical outline and the final text, ensuring the output is strictly grounded in the retrieved material and traceable to its sources. Experiments on 14B and 32B LLMs show that this approach matches or surpasses state‑of‑the‑art baselines, especially in scenarios requiring high factual fidelity and structural coherence.
