Every Little Helps: Building Knowledge Graph Foundation Model with Fine-grained Transferable Multi-modal Tokens

The paper introduces TOFU, a token-based foundation model for multi‑modal knowledge graph reasoning (MMKGR). TOFU converts structural, visual, and textual data into modality‑specific tokens and uses a hierarchical fusion architecture with mixture‑of‑message mechanisms to learn transferable features. Experiments on 17 MMKGs demonstrate that TOFU outperforms existing KGFM and MMKGR baselines, especially on unseen knowledge graphs.

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.

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.

Breaking the Reasoning Horizon in Entity Alignment Foundation Models

The paper introduces a new entity alignment foundation model that overcomes the limitations of existing models by addressing the "reasoning horizon gap". It employs a parallel encoding strategy that uses seed entity pairs as local anchors to guide message passing, thereby shortening inference paths and improving alignment across sparse, heterogeneous knowledge graphs. The model also incorporates a merged relation graph and a learnable interaction module, and experimental results demonstrate its strong generalizability to unseen knowledge graphs.

Structure-Internalized Rule Language Model for Faithful Knowledge Graph Reasoning

The paper introduces the Structure-Internalized Rule Language Model (SIRLM) to improve Knowledge Graph Reasoning (KGR) by addressing the mismatch between KG structural context and Large Language Model (LLM) parametric knowledge. SIRLM centers on a Structure-Internalized Rule Generator (SIRG) that uses in-context learning, a structural relation memory, a KG tokenizer, and a neuro-symbolic reasoner to generate structural rules and provide faithful rule-execution feedback. Experiments on 36 datasets against 17 state‑of‑the‑art KGR methods show that SIRLM achieves significant performance gains.
