VeriCypher: Named-Entity Verification for GraphRAG via Text-to-Cypher Generation

VeriCypher is an LLM-based framework that generates Cypher queries for question answering over Labeled Property Graphs (LPGs). It uses schema summaries to condition query generation, executes queries, evaluates results with an LLM, and iteratively corrects errors through named-entity verification. Experiments on CypherBench show that VeriCypher consistently improves answer correctness and query robustness compared to a baseline, and ablation studies confirm that named-entity verification corrects hallucinated schema elements and entity values.

Enabling Knowledge Graph Understanding at Scale with the EXplore Your Graphs ENgine (EXYGEN)

The paper introduces EXYGEN, a framework that enables conversational access to large knowledge graphs by combining VoID descriptions, ShEx schemas, retrieved triples, and example question‑query pairs in a retrieval‑augmented generation pipeline. On the SciQA benchmark, this approach achieves an exact‑match score of 0.419 without fine‑tuning any large language model, and shows that larger general‑purpose LLMs can outperform smaller code‑specialized ones when provided sufficient context. To scale metadata generation for very large KGs, the authors propose a predicate‑coverage‑aware parallel graph sampling strategy that preserves structural diversity, reduces runtime by over 80× on OpenCitations Meta and GESIS, and is the only tractable method for obtaining complete metadata on ORKG.

Enrich-on-Graph: Query-Graph Alignment for Complex Reasoning with LLM Enriching

Enrich-on-Graph (EoG) is a flexible framework that uses large language models to enrich knowledge graphs, thereby bridging the semantic gap between structured graphs and unstructured queries in complex reasoning tasks. By leveraging LLMs’ prior knowledge, EoG enables efficient evidence extraction from knowledge graphs, achieving precise and robust reasoning while maintaining low computational costs and scalability. The authors also introduce three graph quality evaluation metrics for query‑graph alignment, theoretically validate their optimization objectives, and demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance on two KGQA benchmark datasets.

ArcRAG: Agentic Compositional Retrieval over Knowledge Graphs

ArcRAG is a retrieval-augmented generation system that operates over knowledge graphs without relying on construction‑specific schemas or relation names. It dynamically induces a query‑local graph interface at inference time, plans multi‑hop traversals, and executes them as Cypher queries. Experiments on MuSiQue, HotpotQA, and TriviaQA show that ArcRAG remains effective across both schema‑guided and open‑information‑extraction graph constructions, demonstrating that retrieval can be construction‑agnostic.

GraphRAGProv: GraphRAG Meets How-Provenance

GraphRAGProv is an architecture that combines GraphRAG with how‑provenance by executing SPARQL queries over source‑grounded RDF graphs to compute answers and their provenance polynomials. The polynomials record which statement occurrences were used and how they were combined, linking each occurrence to its source text so users can verify the extraction and query process. An interactive demo evaluated 400 cases from two multi‑hop QA benchmarks, uncovering extraction and query errors even when the final answer was correct.
