Time-Aligned Evolving Concept Graphs for Scientific Relation Forecasting

The paper introduces a time‑aligned evolving concept graph framework that jointly models semantic and structural changes in scientific literature. By treating dated papers as shared update events, it reconstructs both semantic and structural states from the same publication history for each prediction time, and fuses these states at the pair level to forecast co‑occurrence, relation formation, and conditional relation type. Experiments on a large graph of 187,848 papers and 270,687 concepts show that refreshing context with graph updates boosts mean relation AUPRC by 16.6% and raises mean relation AUROC from 0.9290 to 0.9722.

Towards Automatic Evolution Tree Generation from Citation Graphs

The paper introduces EvoTree, a staged framework for automatically generating evolution trees from citation graphs. It separates backbone learning from temporal refinement, using a graph-aware encoder and hierarchical clustering to build a stable taxonomy, then fine-tunes temporally to attach marginal papers under monotonic-path constraints, and finally labels concepts with an LLM without changing the topology. The authors release an annotated benchmark across 11 AI subfields and report that EvoTree outperforms baselines in NMI, citation-direction accuracy, concept purity, and marginal-paper detection.

Hakken: Predicting future discoveries to fill the gaps in today's knowledge

Hakken is a domain‑agnostic system that predicts and explains future scientific discoveries by combining transformer‑based models trained on temporal knowledge graphs with large language model semantic knowledge. It identifies novel relationships between scientific concepts that extend beyond the deductive hull of existing knowledge and provides explanations to help scientists assess these predictions. In the biomedical domain, Hakken set a new benchmark for time‑aware multi‑label relation prediction, generated 1.5 million high‑confidence hypotheses about aging, and experimentally confirmed two predictions that revealed previously undocumented interactions relevant to drug discovery.

FITTER: Vocabulary-Agnostic Cross-Domain Inference on Temporal Knowledge Graphs

arXiv:2608. 10668v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Temporal knowledge graphs are central to many uses of the Semantic Web, but existing completion methods assume the entities, relation names, and timestamps to be reasoned about are already known at training time, restricting each model to a single graph and vocabulary.

FITTER: Vocabulary-Agnostic Cross-Domain Inference on Temporal Knowledge Graphs

Temporal knowledge graphs are central to many uses of the Semantic Web, but existing completion methods assume the entities, relation names, and timestamps to be reasoned about are already known at training time, restricting each model to a single graph and vocabulary. We propose FITTER, the first fully-inductive structural model for temporal knowledge graph link prediction that supports cross-domain transfer: the inference graph may contain entirely unseen entities, relation names, and timestamps drawn from a different domain.
