Asterism is a tool that extracts observations from hundreds of papers as concept‑relation triples and unifies these concepts in a hierarchical ontology. Researchers can curate an evidence graph, aggregate observations at various levels of granularity, and focus theory formation on phenomena that match their preferences. In a field deployment with ten researchers, and in two case studies involving immunology and agriculture, teams used Asterism to discover new mechanisms and generate hypotheses for follow‑up experiments.
arXiv:2608. 07254v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The increasing specialization of scientific research challenges existing classification systems, which provide effective representations of broad disciplines and research topics but often fail to capture the fine-grained conceptual structure of contemporary science.
arXiv:2607. 01233v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLMs are increasingly used to brainstorm research ideas, but existing evaluations mostly judge individual ideas by novelty, feasibility, or expert preference.
Modelpedia is an automated, LLM-assisted framework that extracts and organizes findings about AI models from published papers into a searchable public catalog. It links each finding to the relevant model, dataset, method, and concept, and has already extracted over a thousand findings from ICLR 2024 and 2025 papers. The authors invite the community to explore, contribute to, and build on this open catalog, positioning model findings as a shared foundation for the meta‑science of AI.
arXiv:2605. 22093v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Knowledge graphs have become the primary vehicle for data integration and are critical to the success of modern AI, but the diversity of KG modelling practices, from lightweight vocabularies to richly axiomatised ontologies, makes integration and reuse expensive and brittle.
arXiv:2608.22974v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents rely heavily on knowledge encoded in model parameters or presented as unstructured context. In domain-specific tasks,...
arXiv:2606. 13669v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current LLM-based research agents have advanced through agent orchestration, yet largely overlook scientific knowledge orchestration.
arXiv:2608. 10644v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Extraction produces candidate entities and relationships; writing them into a graph is where identity is decided, and identity decisions are destructive in a way extraction errors are not.
The paper proposes a method for automated research‑idea generation that preserves the typed structure of scientific papers by modeling each paper as a small category with typed research entities as objects and asserted relations as morphisms. It introduces a three‑layer algorithm—categorical signature clustering, a functor‑preservation gate, and a six‑axis LLM plausibility judge—to identify cross‑domain analogies that maintain relation chains. Experiments on tens of thousands of papers show the categorical gate filters candidates at a 17:1 ratio while keeping a falsifier rate above 83%, and it logs rejected candidates with detailed rationale.
arXiv:2607. 01131v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous scientific discovery systems offer the potential to accelerate research by automating the process of hypothesis generation and validation.
arXiv:2606. 20691v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ontologies are useful structures to organize and maintain information that can be understood both by humans and systems.
arXiv:2609.27297v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Agentic science envisions many autonomous agents investigating concurrently while building on a shared, evolving body of scientific knowledge. This...
The paper introduces the Large Knowledge Model (LKM), a scientific knowledge infrastructure that converts research literature into shared, computationally accessible reasoning graphs. LKM aligns questions, claims, and reasoning chains across papers, creating a Scientific Reasoning Landscape with Question, Workflow, and Evidence views. The system enhances scientific search, evidence‑grounded QA, and research planning, achieving notable accuracy gains on ChemBench, PubMedQA, and SciBench.
