From Code Archival to Knowledge Graph: Bridging Software Heritage, COAR Notify and Wikidata

The paper introduces an end‑to‑end pipeline that harvests, validates, and models links between scholarly articles and their source code from journals such as JOSS, SoftwareX, and IPOL, as well as SIGMOD ARI reproducibility reports. It produces a curated set of 4,397 DOI‑repository pairs and defines two Wikidata‑based application profiles—one for articles and one for software—aligned with schema.org and CodeMeta. Using these profiles, the authors created 4,182 new Wikidata software items linked to their papers, while only 82 repositories were previously represented, and they demonstrate compatibility with the COAR Notify protocol for future live enrichment.

CodeGraph: Open-Taxonomy Knowledge Graph for Source Code with Wikidata Grounding

The paper introduces CodeGraph, an open‑taxonomy knowledge graph that semantically annotates source code by extracting entities such as algorithms, paradigms, design patterns, and application domains from millions of files. Using a specialized large language model and a three‑stage Wikidata linking process, the authors ground these entities in Wikidata and construct a graph with about 158 million nodes and 1 billion typed edges across 14 programming languages. A quality‑assurance protocol combining human evaluation and an LLM‑as‑a‑judge filter quantifies annotation precision.

Building a research-software catalog with a coding agent: from hackathon prototype to public deployment

The paper reports on building a research-software catalog using a coding agent, starting from a three‑day hackathon prototype and moving to public deployment. It details the engineering work needed—adversarial review, data‑quality checks, browser validation, and publication safeguards—to ensure reliable operation, noting that silent failures were more problematic than crashes. The authors then examine applying these lessons to a larger, human‑curated portal (MateriApps) that combines curated metadata, external documentation, vector search, and local language‑model generation, finding that explicit validation, monitoring, and repeated review remain essential for AI‑assisted software portals.

W-RAG: Source-Aware Retrieval for Enterprise Document Generation from Heterogeneous Knowledge Bases

W-RAG is a source-aware retrieval framework designed for enterprise document generation from heterogeneous knowledge bases. It uses ontology-guided retrieval, local ranking within each knowledge base, and source-level weighting to balance evidence from diverse sources. A new dataset covering multiple document types and industry domains demonstrates that W-RAG improves document coverage and generation quality compared to standard RAG pipelines.

Scientific Data Skills: Enabling Agent-Ready Scientific Data Services at Scale

The paper introduces the Scientific Data Skill (SciDSK), an agent‑ready representation that packages dataset‑specific knowledge and operational guidance as a reusable skill. SciDSK integrates dataset descriptions, scientific context, file organization, usage procedures, quality checks, and provenance information while keeping the data in its original repository. The authors define a structured specification, build a construction pipeline, and launch the Scientific Data Skill Bank to publish SciDSK resources across six scientific disciplines, demonstrating improved agent‑driven dataset discovery and interpretation through evaluation benchmarks.
