ViSR-KGC: Visual Subgraph Reasoning with Vision-Language Models for Multimodal Knowledge Graph Completion

arXiv:2608. 05833v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge graph completion (KGC) aims to infer missing entities or relations from incomplete graph structures, and has evolved into multimodal knowledge graph completion (MMKGC), where entities are associated with multiple modalities such as text and images.

One Model, Many Graphs: Learning over Attributed Graphs across Heterogeneous Modalities with Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2607. 19128v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) provide a unified representation space for textual and visual information, yet their potential as general-purpose backbones for graph-structured data remains largely unexplored.

PEARL: Path-Entity Aligned Relational Learning with Contextual Subgraphs for Inductive Knowledge Graph Completion

PEARL is a new framework for inductive knowledge graph completion that treats relational paths as context-conditioned reasoning signals. It builds a query‑specific contextual subgraph from the query entities’ neighborhoods and uses a large language model‑guided retriever to select semantically relevant paths. By constructing a bipartite interaction graph over paths, contextual entities, and a global subgraph representation, and applying a dual‑view contrastive objective, PEARL adapts path embeddings to local and global structural evidence, achieving the best average Hits@10 on WN18RR, FB15k‑237, and NELL‑995.

VISPATH: Visual-Intent-Guided Path Reasoning for Multimodal Knowledge Graph Question Answering

VISPATH is a visual‑intent‑guided path reasoning framework designed for multimodal knowledge graph question answering (MM‑KGQA). It first identifies a reliable starting entity by fusing multimodal grounding with graph‑structural cues, then iteratively discovers and refines reasoning paths using hop‑specific multimodal intent and a reasoning‑chain pruning step. The framework is evaluated on the newly introduced VISPATH‑Bench, which tests two‑to‑four‑hop reasoning, and demonstrates consistent improvements over strong baselines, even surpassing GPT‑5.4 when using GPT‑4o as the backbone.
