GLaMoR: Consistency Checking of OWL Ontologies using Graph Language Models

The paper introduces GLaMoR, a reasoning pipeline that converts OWL ontologies into graph-structured data and applies a Graph Language Model (GLM) for consistency checking. It addresses the challenge of verifying ontology consistency, especially for large ontologies where classical reasoners become computationally expensive. Experiments on NCBO BioPortal ontologies show that GLaMoR achieves 95% accuracy and is 20 times faster than traditional reasoners.

EvoOntology: A Self-Evolving Ontology Layer for Data Agents

EvoOntology introduces a self‑evolving ontology layer for data agents, encapsulating the ontology as an MCP server with schema, content, and tool layers. It enables agents to query and interact with the ontology at runtime, using a builder agent for autonomous construction and a self‑evolution loop that refines the ontology through attribution‑guided edits validated by backbone‑conditional evaluation. Experiments on three data‑agent benchmarks with four LLM backbones show that EvoOntology consistently outperforms strong baselines and existing semantic‑layer approaches, effectively bridging the agent‑data gap for heterogeneous data.

SymbolLKG: Towards Verifiable Logical Reasoning via Logical Knowledge Graph and Symbolic Solvers

The paper introduces SymbolLKG, a neuro-symbolic framework that combines a Logical Knowledge Graph (LKG) with dynamic solver routing to improve logical reasoning in large language models. The LKG represents logical rules and constraints as topological nodes, enabling explicit modeling of dependencies extracted from text. A Logic Router dispatches tasks to the most suitable symbolic engine, supported by a topology-aware hybrid retrieval mechanism, and the approach outperforms existing prompting and RAG baselines on logical reasoning benchmarks.

LLM-Assisted Discovery of Typed Semantic Links for Ontology Network Construction

The paper presents an automated framework for building ontology networks by discovering typed semantic links between concepts across domains. It uses domain‑adapted DistilBERT embeddings, clustering to prune candidates, and GPT‑4o for generating interpretable relationships, reducing 800k raw pairs to 95k high‑quality candidates. Human validation on 429 links shows an 80.19% precision and 0.890 F1, outperforming five similarity‑based baselines and demonstrating the need for LLM reasoning in ontology link construction.

SCAIR: Schema-Conditioned Agentic Iterative Reasoning for Enterprise Knowledge Graphs

arXiv:2607. 22571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge Graph-based Retrieval-Augmented Generation (KG-RAG) enables natural language interaction with structured enterprise knowledge, yet existing agentic approaches that perform well on public benchmarks often fail to generalize to real-world enterprise Knowledge Graphs (KGs), which are dense, schema-driven, and operationally constrained.
