NeuroSymActive: Differentiable Neural-Symbolic Reasoning with Active Exploration for Knowledge Graph Question Answering

arXiv:2602. 15353v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large pretrained language models and neural reasoning systems have advanced many natural language tasks, yet they remain challenged by knowledge-intensive queries that require precise, structured multi-hop inference.

KGFR: A Foundation Retriever for Generalized Knowledge Graph Question Answering

KGFR introduces a Knowledge Graph Foundation Retriever that collaborates with large language models to enhance knowledge‑intensive question answering. By encoding relations with LLM‑generated descriptions and initializing entities from question roles, KGFR enables zero‑shot generalization to unseen knowledge graphs. Its Asymmetric Progressive Propagation technique efficiently handles large graphs, while a controllable reasoning loop allows the LLM to request candidate answers, supporting facts, and reasoning paths.

Better Later Than Sooner: Neuro-Symbolic Knowledge Graph Construction via Ontology-grounded Post-extraction Correction

The paper introduces a neuro‑symbolic framework for constructing knowledge graphs (KGs) that are grounded in an ontology. It combines open‑domain extraction, embedding‑based canonicalization of types and predicates, and a post‑extraction LLM‑based correction step to fix ontology violations, thereby reducing token usage and improving KG consistency. The resulting KGs support symbolic querying, as evidenced by the prevalence of SPARQL graph patterns in the extracted 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.

KGCaRe: Explainable Complex Conditional Question Answering using Automatic Knowledge Graph Construction and Context Retrieval with LLMs

arXiv:2608. 09779v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Answering complex conditional questions using Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) remains a challenge, particularly in domain-specific contexts where general-purpose LLMs and RAG tend to underperform.
